CLEANING THE GRILL
CAUTION: Some of the metal edges may be sharp. be careful handling it.
Regularly clean your LP gas grill between uses and after extended storage.
To prolong the life and condition of your grill, the portable unit should not be
stored outside for any length of time, especially during the winter months.
• Do not clean any grill part in a self-cleaning oven. The extreme heat will damage the
finish.
• Do not immerse the burner in water. Make sure any water is removed from the burner.
• Never use oven cleaner, steel wool or other abrasive cleaning products on the painted
and nonstick surfaces. These will cause damage to the finish or parts.
How to Clean the Grill
1. After grill has cooled, empty and clean the grease tray in hot soapy water.
2. Remove excess grease and drippings from the grill bowl with a soft plastic or wooden
scraper. If necessary, use a nylon bristle brush to loosen hardened food particles.
Wash the cooking surface in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
3. Wash exterior parts with a soft sponge and warm soapy water. Non-abrasive
cleansers may be used. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. Use a damp cloth to clean the inside of the grill lid and grill body. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
5. Replace the grease tray inside the bowl and the cooking surface on the bowl brackets.
BURNER MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation of air.
• Check the LP gas grill for gas leaks and burner obstructions before each
use.
• Always turn off the regulator knob when not in use. Allow grill to cool before
handling parts or cleaning.
Provided that the burner is operating correctly, in normal usage, burning off the residue
after cooking will keep the burner clean. The burner should be cleaned annually, or
whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that there are no signs of blockage (debris,
insects) in the burner portholes, the primary air inlet, or the neck of the burner. (See
BURNER CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS below.)
CAUTION: Some of the metal edges may be sharp. be careful in handling.
How to Clean the Burner
1) Make sure the LP cylinder and regulator knob is turned to the OFF/LOCK,
and the grill has completely cooled.
2) Remove the LP cylinder and regulator.
Note:

3) Carefully remove grease tray and the cooking plate.
4) Remove 4 screws from top of grease deflector.

To preheat:
With the grill lid open, preheat on high for about 8 minutes. During the first
use, you may notice a slight odor caused by the curing oil used in manufacture.
Important: Do not close the grill lid while in use.
4) Carefully place food on the cooking surface. Cook to desired doneness, turning food
halfway through the cooking time for most foods. Adjust flame as needed with the
regulator knob.
5) When food is cooked, remove food with long-handled heat resistant, nylon or wooden
utensils to avoid scratching the non-stick surface. Never use metal tongs, forks or
knives as these can damage the cooking surface.

it is hot.
CAUTION: Never touch hot surfaces. Use heat resistant gloves, long-handled
tongs, or cooking mitts at all times.
