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.
Barbecue Hood or Lid & Trolley
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.
Stainless Steel
Stainless Steel is a type of steel containing
chromium, which offers high resistance to
corrosion and heat by forming a protective layer
of Chromium Oxide. Exposure to fat, dirt and
water can prevent the protective layer being
formed, which can lead to spotting such as
surface discolouration and rust.
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a
stainless steel cleaner or methylated spirits and
any spotting should be taken care of
immediately. Failure to remove spotting can
lead to permanent discolouration.
Never use a chlorine based cleaner on
stainless steel.
Do not use a wire brush, steel wool or
abrasives as these will strip the protective
layer, which can lead to rusting.
Always rinse and allow to dry after cleaning.
Fixings
All screws and bolts, etc. should be checked
and tightened on a regular basis.
Storage
Ensure the barbecue is properly cooled before
covering or storing. Store your barbecue in a
cool dry place.
Cover the burners with aluminium foil in order to
prevent insects or other debris from collecting in
burner holes.
If the barbecue is to be stored indoors, the gas
bottle must be disconnected and left outside.
The gas bottle should always be stored outside,
in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from any
sources of heat or ignition. Do not let children
tamper with the bottle.
When using the barbecue after extended
periods of storage follow the cleaning
procedures.
