Turn the burner on for 15 to 20 minutes. Grease drippings will be burned off from your grill as well as
your lava rock. Ensure appliance is cold before continuing.

The interior surfaces of the grill housing cover should also be washed with hot, soapy water. Use a wire
brush, steel wool or a scouring pad to remove stubborn spots.

are no obstructions. We recommend that you use a pipe cleaner to clean the venturi pipe area.
