TRANSPORTING AND STORAGE:
•
Never move a grill when it is hot or when objects are on the cooking surfaces.
•
Make sure that natural gas supply is shut off. After moving the grill check that all gas
connections are free of leaks. Refer to instructions for Leak Testing.
•
DO NOT store a spare LP gas cylinder (filled or empty) under or near the grill.
•
Never store flammable liquids or spray canisters under or near the grill.
•
DO NOT extinguish grease fires using water.
•
If the outdoor cooking gas appliance is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the gas supply.
•
When removing the grill from storage, spider webs or other debris may be blocking the burner.
See "Burner Assembly/Maintenance" under Proper Care and Maintenance.
WARNING
COOKING GRILLS
•
Clean with mild soap detergent and water. A brass bristled brush or a nylon cleaning pad can be used
to remove residue from the stainless steel surfaces. Do not use steel wire bristles to clean the cooking
grills. Steel can cause the finish to chip or crack. DO NOT use a commercial oven cleaner.
HEAT DISTRIBUTION PLATES
•
Periodically, it may be necessary to inspect and clean the heat distribution plate to prevent excess
grease build-up. When the grill is cold, remove the cooking grills. Inspect the heat distribution plates
and replace if broken or damaged. Do not allow heat distribution plates to become damaged to the
extent that they may fall through onto the burners. Replace the heat distribution plates and cooking
grills and light the burners. Operate the grill on "HIGH" for 10 minutes to remove the excess grease.
BURNER ASSEMBLY/MAINTENANCE CONTINUED
Note: Follow the "Gas Leak Testing" section of this manual. Relight burners to verify proper
operation.
