TruSear™ Infrared Grill Burner (If Applicable)
When finished cooking, turn the control knob to the “HIGH” setting and allow the burner to burn for 5 minutes. This helps
eliminate any drippings or debris that would otherwise remain on the burner, degrading the performance and reducing
burner life. After the 5 minute burn-off time, turn the grill “OFF” and allow to cool completely before attempting to clean or
move. Wipe excess grease and food from grill surfaces.
Do Not
use commercial oven cleaner on the TruSear burner. Only soap and water is recommended.
Drip Tray
The drip tray should be removed and cleaned after each use. Allow the drippings in
the drip tray to cool completely before removing. To remove the drip tray, roll the
tray all the way out. Lift up on the handle to fully remove the tray. Wash with hot,
soapy water to clean. Dry and replace drip tray before next use.
Spider Inspection
You should inspect the burners/venturi tubes at least once a
year, or immediately if any of the following conditions occur.
• The smell of gas along with the burner flames appearing
yellow.
• The grill does not reach the proper temperatures.
• The grill heats unevenly.
• The burners make a popping noise.
WARNING
SPIDER AND INSECT INFESTATION
Spiders and insects can nest in the burners/venturi tubes of
this or any other grill, and cause the gas to flow from the
front of the burner. This is a very dangerous condition that
can cause a fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby
damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate.
Infrared Rotisserie Burner
Special care is not required for the infrared rotisserie burner. It is designed as a self-contained unit. Do not attempt to clean
it. Its own operation burns off any impurities which may condense on it.
