CARE & MAINTENANCE
STAINLESS STEEL
The grill is made from non-rusting and non-magnetic
stainless steel. There are many different stainless steel
cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning
procedure first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain.
To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless steel,
sand very lightly with dry 100 grit emery paper in the
direction of the grain. Specks of grease can gather on
the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on to the
surface and give the appearance of rust. For removal
use an abrasive pad in conjunction with a stainless steel
cleaner.
GRILL RACK
The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after
cooking is completed and after turning off the flame.
Wear a barbeque mitt to protect your hand from the
heat and steam. Dip a brass bristle barbeque brush in
tap water and scrub the hot grill. Dip the brush
frequently in the bowl of water. Steam, created as water
contacts the hot grill, assists the cleaning process by
softening any food particles. The food particles will fall
and burn. If the grill is allowed to cool before cleaning,
cleaning will be more difficult.
GRILL BURNERS
Extreme care should be taken when moving a burner as
it must be correctly centered on the orifice before any
attempt is made to relight the grill. Frequency of
cleaning will depend on how often you use the grill.
GRILL BURNER CLEANING
Ensure the gas supply is off and the knobs are in the
“OFF” position. Make sure the grill is cool. Clean the
exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Clear stubborn
scale with a metal scraper. Clear any clogged ports with
a straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden
toothpick as it may break off and clog the port. Please
note if insects or other obstructions are blocking the flow
of gas through the burner, and if so you will need to call
our customer service line: 1-800-913-8999.
GREASE TRAY CLEANING
The grease tray should be emptied and wiped down
periodically and washed in a mild detergent and warm
water solution. A small amount of sand or cat litter may
be placed in bottom of grease tray to absorb the grease.
Check the grease tray frequently, don’t allow excess
grease to accumulate and overflow out of the grease
tray.
USING THE SIDE BURNER
WARNING: IMPORTANT!
USING THE SIDE BURNER:
Inspect the gas supply hose prior to turning the gas
“ON”. If there is evidence of cuts, wear or abrasion,
it must be replaced prior to use. Do not use the side
burner if the odor of gas is present.
WARNING: Always keep your face and body as
far away from the burner as possible when lighting.
LIGHT INSTRUCTION
To light the side burner, remove any cooking
utensils from the burner grate. Push and turn the
control knob counterclockwise to the “IGNITE/HI”
position. If the burner does not light, turn the control
knob to “OFF”. If the smell of gas is detected and the
igniter is not functioning, immediately turn the control
knob “OFF”. Allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas
to dissipate. If the side burner igniter is not
functioning, see the following section for match
lighting.
MATCH LIGHTING
Hold a lit extended match or lighter near the side
burner ports, turn the control knob counterclockwise
to “INGITE/HI”. Move your hand immediately once the
burner is lit. Rotate the control knob to the desired
setting.
