Maintenance
On-going Maintenance
Your BBQ requires regular maintenance (interior and exterior). The use on a BBQ cover in
conjunction with the instructions below will help to ensure it remains in proper working order and
maintains its appearance.
Exterior:
Stainless Steel BBQ’s
Overtime grease, fat and other cooking oils may build up on your BBQ. To clean, wash with
warm/hot soapy water. Wash off soapy water with warm/hot clean water, leave to air dry. Apply
a stainless steel BBQ protector to stainless steel surfaces. This will apply a protective coating on
the exterior of the BBQ and assist in repelling the elements.
Stainless steel will rust if you do not look after it properly.
From time to time spotting may occur on the exterior of your BBQ. This is normal and is due to
moisture and/or other elements becoming trapped under the cover of your BBQ and building up
(it is highly recommended that all BBQ’s are stored under an eve with a cover to protect against
the harsh New Zealand elements – any BBQ not stored and covered correctly will not be covered
under Warranty). To ensure that spotting and discoloration does not become worse and more
visible resulting in permanent damage to your BBQ, it should be cleaned and removed straight
away. This is best done with a stainless steel cleaner/cutback solution, or if the spotting is larger
and harder to remove, use a stainless steel/metal polish and then a cleaner/solution. Always use
a soft cloth to clean your BBQ.
Never use abrasive heavy duty sponges or scouring pads on the exterior of your BBQ, these
products will begin to remove the stainless steel finish resulting in an uneven surface and faster
rusting in the future.
Powder Coated BBQ’s
Overtime grease, fat and other cooking oils may build up on your BBQ. To clean, wash with
warm/hot soapy water. Wash off soapy water with warm/hot clean water, leave to air dry. Once
dry, use a BBQ exterior cleaner, this will apply a protective coating on the exterior of the BBQ
and assist in repelling the elements. Always you use a soft cloth to clean your BBQ.
Never use abrasive heavy duty sponges or scouring pads on the exterior of your BBQ, these
products will begin to remove the powder coated finish resulting in an uneven surface and may
result in rusting in the future.
