Cooking Surfaces
When the barbecue has cooled, clean with hot soapy water. To remove any food residue, use a mild cream
cleaner on a non-abrasive pad. Do not use scouring pads or powders as they can permanently damage the
finish. Rinse well and dry thoroughly. Due to the weight of the cooking surfaces, we do not recommend
cleaning in a dishwasher.
It is quite normal for surface rust to be present on the cooking surface. If rust appears between uses or in
storage, clean with a soft brass wire brush. Be careful not to damage the cooking surface, re-oil and cure.
Burner
Provided that they are operating correctly, in normal usage, burning off the residue after cooking will keep the
burners clean.
The burners should be removed and cleaned annually, or whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that
there are no signs of blockage (debris, insects) in either the burner portholes or the primary air inlet of the
burners. Use a pipe cleaner to clear obstructions.
When refitting the burners, be careful to check that the neck of the burner fits over the valve outlet.
It is quite normal for surface rust to be present on the burners. If rust appears between uses or in storage,
clean with a soft brass wire brush.
Flame Tamer
Remove any food residue from the flame tamer surface with a plastic or wooden scraper or brass wire brush.
Do not use a steel scraper or wire brush. Clean with hot soapy water and rinse well.
Flame tamers will deteriorate with use—this is normal. Periodic replacement may be needed.
Drip Tray
After every use, empty and clean the drip tray of any fat or food particles, using a plastic or wooden scraper if
necessary.
Failure to keep it clean, and excessive build up can result in a fat fire. This can be hazardous and severely
damage the barbecue. This is not a fault in the barbecue and is therefore not covered by the terms of the
warranty. If required, the tray can be washed in hot soapy water.
Barbecue Body
Regularly remove excess grease or fat from the barbecue body using a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water
and dry thoroughly. Excess fat and food debris
can be removed from inside the body using a soft plastic or wooden scraper. It is not necessary to remove all
the grease from the body. If you need to clean fully, use hot soapy water and a cloth, or nylon-bristled brush
only. Do not use abrasives. Remove cooking surfaces and burners before full cleaning. Do not immerse the
gas controls or manifold in water. Check burner operation after carefully refitting into body.
A stainless steel cleaner may be used on stainless steel parts if required.
Whenever a barbecue is being assembled for the first time or its burners are being cleaned, make sure
each gas valve tip goes into the burner venturi tube completely during the assemble or re-assemble
process.
Barbecue Hood or Lid
Use a non-abrasive cloth or pad and clean with hot, soapy water. Do not use scouring pads or powders as
they can permanently damage the finish.
Trolley
Wipe with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water and dry.
