3) Turn off the gas at the LP cylinder valve by turning the
handle clockwise until it stops.
4) Wait until the grill is cool before closing the hood, cleaning
or putting on the cover.
5) Regularly clean your LP gas grill between uses and after
extended storage periods. To maintain the condition and
extend the life of your grill, we strongly recommend that
the unit be covered when stored outside for any length of
time, especially during the winter months.

END OF COOKING SESSION
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, fire or death:
· Allow grill and grease in the Drip Cup to completely
cool before emptying, handling parts, cleaning, moving
or storage.
· Empty the Drip Cup after each cooking session so
excessive grease does not accumulate.
· Never light the LP gas grill without the Drip Cup in
place.
1) Remove Drip Cup, Cooking Grid, and Flame Diffuser.
2) Drip
Cup-
Wash the Drip Cup with soap and water.
3)
Grill Body and Cart
-Remove excess grease and/or fat
with a soft plastic or wooden scraper. Do not use steel
wool or other abrasive cleaners that can scratch painted
or porcelain coated surfaces. It is not necessary to remove
all the grease from the body. Wipe it down with paper
towels or soft damp cloth.
4)
Warming Rack-
Clean if necessary with soap and water.
5)
Cooking Grid/Flame Diffuser.
Clean the residue off with
hot soap and water, or baking soda. For stubborn stains,
use a non-abrasive scouring powder. Do not use steel wool
or other abrasive cleaners that can scratch the porcelain
coated surfaces. This can cause foods to stick on the
Cooking Grids.
6)
All other Cleaning-
For further cleaning, use hot soapy
water and a cloth, or nylon-bristled brush only. Do not
immerse the gas controls or manifold in water. (Avoid
getting water in the Burner Holes.)
7)
Burners-
Burning off the residue after cooking will keep the
burners clean with normal usage, provided the Burners
are operating correctly. Clean the the Burners annually,
or whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that there
are no signs of blockage (debris, insects) in either the
burner portholes, the primary air inlet, or the neck of the
burners.
(See Burner Cleaning instructions.)
8) After cleaning, replace all the cleaned parts. Re-tighten
Burner and Heat Shield screws.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE GRILL
To reduce the risk of a cut injury:
· Be careful or wear protective gloves when cleaning grill
parts that have sharp edges.
· Do not use the grill without the Drip Cup in place.
Empty excess grease to avoid a fire under the grill.
· If you notice grease or other hot material dripping
from the grill onto the valve, hose, or regulator, turn
off the gas supply immediately. After the grill has
cooled, determine the cause and correct it. After
cleaning the valve and hose and regulator assembly,
perform a leak test before continuing use. (See
Performing a Leak Test.)
· Do not attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water
or other liquids. Have an BC fire extinguisher
accessible. Do not douse or spray the grill or cooking
surfaces with water when hot. Burns from grease or
the water splatters could occur.
· If your gas grill catches on fire:
- If the fire is in the grill portion and you can safely
reach the control knobs on the control panel, then
turn them to the off position.
- If the fire is in one of the hoses, and you can safely
reach the LP cylinder valve, then shut the valve off.
- If the fire involves the cylinder, leave it alone,
evacuate the area and call the fire department.
- If there is any type of fire that threatens either
personal safety or endangers property, call the fire
department.
· Do not wear loose clothing (example: hanging shirt
tails, clothing with frills, etc.) around a gas grill while in
use or hot.
· Do not lean your body over the gas grill when lighting
it or while it is in use or hot.
· Do not touch hot surfaces. Use heat resistant gloves,
long-handled tongs, or cooking mitts at all times
since the grill will become very hot. Open the hood
carefully when cooking to avoid burns from the hot air
and steam trapped inside.
· Do not allow children to operate or play near a gas
grill. Keep animals and bystanders out of the grill area.
Do not leave grill unattended.
· Do not move an LP gas grill when in use or hot.
· When grill is not in use, turn off all grill control knobs,
LP cylinder valve and disconnect the LP cylinder.
1) After each cooking session, close the hood and turn the
grill burners to the “High” position and burn for five
minutes. This procedure will burn off cooking residue,
thus making cleaning easier. (Side Burner not affected)
2) When you have finished using your grill, turn the grill
Control Knobs clockwise to the “Off” position.
