IMPORTANT: Inspect all venturi tubes/burners at least once per year or sooner
if:
1. You smell gas.
2. You experience delayed burner ignition.
3. The appliance does not reach proper temperature.
4. The burner makes a "popping" noise.
5. The appliance heats unevenly.
6. The appliance has been stored for a period of more than one month.
Note: A good flame should be blue with some yellow tips coming from the burner holes. Yellow tips on
flames up to ¼" in height are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear.
Cleaning the Cooking Grates
1. Clean the cooking grates before and after each use with a stiff brush. For stainless steel
cooking grates, use a brass wire brush. DO NOT use scrapers or brushes of other metals. For
porcelain-coated cooking grates, use a non-metallic scrub brush.
2. It is not necessary to fully clean the cooking grates after each use, but a mild soap and water
solution can be used as necessary. Always rinse cooking grates thoroughly after cleaning.
3. Do not use commercial grade oven cleaners to clean the cooking grates.
Cleaning the Flame Tamers
1. Remove the cooking grates and clean any built-up residue from the flame tamers. For stainless
steel flame tamers, use a brass wire brush. DO NOT use scrapers or brushes of other metals.
For porcelain-coated flame tamers, use a non-metallic scrub brush.
2. It is not necessary to fully clean the flame tamers after each use, but a mild soap and water
solution can be used as necessary. Always rinse flame tamers thoroughly after cleaning.
3. Do not use commercial grade oven cleaners to clean the flame tamers.
Cleaning the Grease Cup & Grease Tray
1. The grease cup/grease tray is located below the firebox of the appliance and will catch any
grease drippings/food residue that is not burnt off during cooking.
2. Wait until the grease/residue in the cup/grease tray is cooled and empty it into the garbage.
3. The grease cup/grease tray should be emptied regularly to prevent possible flare ups or spillage.
Grilling Tips
1. For LP models, ensure that you have enough propane in the cylinder prior to starting the grill so
that you do not run out midway through cooking.
2. Trim excess fat from meat to reduce flare ups caused by grease drippings.
3. Before lighting the burners, spray the cooking grates with non-stick spray or vegetable oil to
prevent food from sticking.
4. For best cooking results, always pre-heat the grill before adding food.
5. Do not add salt to meats prior to grilling as it may reduce the "juiciness" of the meat.
6. Never pierce meat with a fork during cooking - always use tongs or a spatula to rotate meat in
order to preserve the internal juices.
