CLEANING AND CARE
WARNING
WARNING
Please ensure that your barbecue is switched off and has
cooled down before following the instructions below.
Do not use a high pressure cleaner to clean this appliance.
If cleaning the appliance without the stand attached ensure
the base is stable before lifting the hood.
Cast iron plates and grills
The cooking plates and grills have a porcelain enamelled
coating.
NOTE: Many food acids, juices, marinades and sauces contain
highly acidic elements that will slowly attack the surface of the
cast iron if not removed immediately after cooking.
After use, remove all solid material from the cooking surface
using a brass bristled barbecue brush or plastic bristled
scourer. Wipe off the remaining grease with paper towels.
Gently wash the surfaces with a cloth or sponge and a mild
detergent and hot water. Dry components immediately and
coat the cooking surface with a light layer of cooking oil.
This protects the surface when not in use. Do not clean the
cooking surface in a dishwasher.
Die cast aluminium body and handles
Wash painted surfaces with hot soapy water and a nylon
scourer. To avoid contact with burners and the potential of
blocking burner ports with residue, it is advisable to remove
burners prior to cleaning burner box. Do not use caustic, harsh
abrasive cleaners, powder cleaners, steel wool or wax polishes.
Enamel coated hood
Wash enamel surfaces with hot soapy water and a nylon
scourer. Do not use caustic, harsh abrasive cleaners,
powder cleaners, steel wool or wax polishes.
Cleaning the oil collection tray
The grease Collecting Pan is located on 2 brackets below
the BBQ’s bottom, it can inserted and removed from the
left-hand-side, once the Locking U Bolt had been pulled out.
Make sure the pan is always in it’s place when operating the
barbecue, to avoid grease dripping directly on to the Stand.
Make sure the grease pan is emptied and cleaned before
each use.
Also ensure the grease is cleaned off the inside of the
Barbecue before each use.
WARNING
WARNING
Do not use high-pressure cleaner to clean the barbecue,
this can damage the ignition system.
Intensive cleaning cycle
In instances when the cooking surface becomes heavily
soiled and harder to clean, the barbecue can be set-up for an
intensive cleaning cycle.
To do this you must have the hood fully open.
Light both burners and set to ‘HIGH’
After approximately 30 minutes, this should turn any baked
on food or grease to ash. Once the surface has cooled, the
residual ash can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
After cleaning, lightly season the cast plate and cast grills
with cooking oil.
WARNING
WARNING
The hood or lid must be fully open during the cleaning
process.
Failure to do so can result in damage to the hood and
barbecue which is not covered under warranty.
Storage
When the barbecue is not being used it is recommended
to keep it covered. A cover is available, contact Electrolux
Customer Service for details. If the barbecue is to be stored
indoors, remove the gas cylinder and store the cylinder in a
ventilated outdoor area.
Maintenance
Stainless steel burners
Burners should be checked at least once per year and
cleaned as necessary. Inspect burners to ensure no residues
have been deposited and gas ports are clear.
NOTE: Environmental conditions need to be taken into
account with regards to maintenance required on your
product. In particular, units installed in humid climates
or seaside locations will be more susceptible to surface
corrosion/discolouration over time. In these conditions it
is strongly recommended to clean and dry your barbecue
after each use and covering it when not in use to minimise
exposure to the elements.
WARNING
CAUTION
Care should be taken not to disturb the spark electrode or
gas injectors.
Gas fittings
Check gas fitting are tight and do not leak. Check gas supply
hoses are in good condition and do not leak.
Regular inspection
Inspect the barbecue thoroughly for any grease, dirt or food
residue accumulation and remove. The barbecue interior can
be wiped down with a soft cloth in hot soapy water.
