Stainless Steel
There are many stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning process first, scrubbing
in the direction of the grain. Do not use steel wool as it will scratch the surface. To touch up noticeable
scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with dry 100 grit sand paper in the direction of the grain.
Grease specks can gather and bake onto the surfaces of the stainless steel, giving the appearance of rust.
For removal, use an abrasive pad with a stainless steel cleaner.
Cooking Grates
The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after cooking is completed, and the flames have been turne
off.
Wear a barbeque mitt to protect your hand from heat and steam.
Scrub the hot cooking grates by dipping a bristle barbecue brush in tap water. Cleaning will be more difficult
if the grill is allowed to cool.
Grease Pan
The grease pan should be emptied, wiped down and washed after each use with a mild detergent and warm
water solution. Check the grease pan frequently and do not allow excess grease to accumulate and flow out
of the grease pan.
Grill Burners
Extreme care should be taken when removing a burner. It must be correctly centered on the orifice before
any attempt is made to relight the grill. Frequency of cleaning will depend on how often you use the grill.
Failure to properly place the burner over the orifice could cause a fire to occur behind and beneath the valve
panel, thereby damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate.
Before cleaning, make sure the gas supply and electrical button are in the “OFF” position and the burners
Have cooled.
To remove the main burners for cleaning:
Locate the burner screw at the rear of the firebox.
Remove the screw and lift the burner out of the firebox.
To clean the grill burners:
Clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Use a metal scraper for stubborn stains or debris.
Clear clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break off and
clog the port.
Check and clean burners / venturi tubes for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire
beneath the grill.Fig.
To reinstall the main burners:
1.Insert the burner over the main burner gas valve
2.Make sure the orifice spud (xx-1) is inside the burner venturi.
3.Align the burner screw hole with the firebox hole, insert screw and tighten.
