MAINTENANCE OF YOUR BBQ
PROTECTION
Keep your BBQ beneath a weather cover and out of the rain. Proper
care and maintenance will keep your BBQ in top operating condition
and prolong its life.
CLEANING THE COOKING SURFACES
Allow your BBQ to continue burning for 5 minutes after cooking has
ceased, which will burn off excess fats and juices etc. that may block
the flame ports of the burners. To keep your BBQ ready for the next
time, turn the burners to
•
off
then take a long handled brush and
brush the cooking surface to remove excess oils and food scraps. Be
careful as surfaces are hot. Protect your hands by using an oven mitt
to hold the brush.
Allow to cool before washing in a warm soapy solution. Ensure that
any dried fat/food deposits are cleaned off both the top and bottom
grills after EVERY cooking session to allow fat to stream away
efficiently on your next cooking session. To clean the Grills effectively
use the Grillstream cleaning brush which has been specially designed
to quickly and effectively clean your Grillstream Grills. Rinse off with
clean water and dry before returning to BBQ.
CLEANING THE FLAME TAMERS
Periodically wash in a warm soapy solution. Use a wire brush to
remove stubborn burnt on cooking residue if necessary. Dry thoroughly
before re-installing to the BBQ body.
CLEANING THE BBQ BODY
The body of the BBQ should be cleaned regularly dependant on the
use and type of food cooked. Use warm soapy solution.
CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY/FAT COLLECTION CUP
- IMPORTANT - the drip tray, Fat Channel and fat collector should be
cleaned on a regular basis. If this is ignored, a build up of fats and
greases may cause a fire in the BBQ
- Please check the level of waste fat in the fat collection cup regularly
while cooking to ensure it does not overflow and dispose of the
waste fat responsibly.
- More frequent cleaning may be necessary as usage demands
- FAT FIRES ARE NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY
CLEANING THE BURNERS
Occasionally after long cooking sessions, excess fats, juices and
marinades can clog the burners. If so, remove the burners (see
removing burners section) for cleaning.
- Clean by washing in hot water and detergent
- Ensure that all burner ports are free from obstruction
- Rinse in water
- Light immediately to prevent rust and corrosion
- Brush lightly with cooking oil if BBQ is not used for an
extended period
FIRST USE AFTER LONG PERIODS
At the start of each BBQ season or before using after a long
period of time:
- Read this operation manual again thoroughly
- Check all gas valve orifices, burner tubes and connections
for obstructions
- Check that all burners are in their correct positions
- Check to see if the gas cylinder is full
- Check for gas leaks using a soapy water solution
- Set burner controls to
•
off
and connect gas supply
- Ensure all grills and hotplates are clean before use
