Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel Surfaces
• Weathering and extreme heat can cause exterior
stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color. Machine
oils used in manufacturing process of stainless steel
can also cause this tanning color. Use a stainless
steel cleaner to polish stainless steel surfaces of
your grill. Never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers
because they will scratch and damage your grill.
Cleaning Burner Tubes and Burner Ports
To reduce the possibility of "flashback", the following
steps should be performed at least once a month.
1. Turn all burner valves and gas cylinder valve to off
position.
2. Detach the LP gas regulator assembly from your
gas grill.
3. Remove cooking grids, heat diffusers, and grease
tray from the grill.
4. Remove the screws from the underside of each
burner and lift the burners up and away from the gas
valve orifice.
5. Using a bent stiff wire in the shape of a hook , air
hose or a bottle brush, run it through the burner tube
and inside several times to remove any debris.
6. Replace burners, see illustration below.
Step 1: Put the burner on the gas jets.
Step 2: Place the end of the burner on the bracket of
the back plate of the firebox body.
Step 3: Fix the burner with pins.

WARNING
The location of the burner tube with respect to
the orifice is vital for safe operation. Check to
ensure the orifice is inside the burner tube
before using the gas grill. If the burner tube does
not fit over the valve orifice, lighting the burner
may cause explosion and/or fire.
