INFORMATION ON STAINLESS STEEL
A common misconception about stainless steel is that it cannot oxidise, which is inac-
curate. All steel can oxidise if the conditions for oxidation are right. However, stainless
steel has a higher resistance to oxidation than non-stainless steel. This means that even
stainless steel must be maintained to prevent oxidation and other corrosion. If not main-
tained, it is normal for the barbecue to suer from so-called red oxide. This is considered
normal and is not grounds for complaint
CLEANING STAINLESS STEEL
• Start by wiping the surface with a damp cloth and a mild soap. The surface must be
clean and free of dirt and grease. Dry with a dry cloth.
• If the propane burner has gotten surface rust, you can use a light polish, Autosol, on
a cloth and polish the surface until the surface rust disappears. Wipe clean with a dry
cloth.
• To protect the surface, you can spray a thin layer of 5-56 or WD-40, two universal
remedies to loosen red oxide and protect against moisture. Apply the product with a
cloth so that you have an even coat.
• NOTE! Do not use sharp objects to clean the griddle bowl. They may damage the surface.
• NOTE! These products must not come in contact with the propane burner’s painted
surfaces or surfaces that come in contact with food.
STORAGE
• When the propane burner is not in use, it should be protected from rain and contami-
nants under a barbecue cover, this prevents contamination and surface rust.
• For long-term storage, for example, in the winter, the propane burner must first be
carefully cleaned, dried and then stored under a barbecue cover in a dry and
dust-free environment.
• The gas cylinder must always be closed when the propane burner is not in use and
disconnected before the propane burner is put in storage.
