Care & Maintenance
As with all appliances, proper care and maintenance will keep
them in top operating condition and prolong their life. Your
new gas barbecue is no exception. By following these
cleaning procedures on a timely basis, your barbecue will be
kept clean and working properly with minimum effort.
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make
nests in the burner tubes during warehousing and transit.
These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruction which could
result in a fire in and around the burner tubes.
This type of fire is known as ‘FLASH-BACK’ and can cause
serious damage to your barbecue and create an unsafe
operating condition for the user. Although an obstructed
burner tube is not the only cause of ‘FLASH-BACK’ it is the
most common cause and frequent inspection and cleaning of
the burner tubes is necessary.
Flash-Back
If fire occurs in and around the burner, immediately turn off
gas at its source and turn the burner control to OFF, wait until
the barbecue has cooled, then clean the burner tubes and
burner ports as described in lighting and operating
procedure.
Cleaning the Grill Plates
After cooking, turn burner control to OFF and let barbecue
cool before attempting to clean your grill plates. Before first
use and periodically, it is suggested that you wash the grill
plates in a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a
wash cloth to clean your barbecue plates.
Care of Cooking Surface
Use and care of the nonstick cooking surface is important.
Do not use metal utensils or cut food on the cooking surface.
Use only plastic cooking utensils. Do not use pans on the
cooking surface. Do not overheat the cooking surface with
the hood down or no food on the cooking surface.
Cleaning the Drip Tray
The drip tray should be emptied and wiped clean periodically
and washed in a mild detergent and warm water solution.
Beware of spiders and wasps. Burner tube
should be inspected and cleaned periodically.
To avoid any flare-ups, it is recommended
that the drip tray be checked and emptied
regularly. Contents of the drip tray may be very
hot during cooking. If emptied during
extended cooking extreme caution should be
taken and direct contact by hand should be
avoided at all times. Allow to cool completely
before disposing of the contents.
