MAINTENANCE
USING GRILL WITH LPG (PROPANE) SYSTEMS
Stainless steel contrary to popular belief can rust. Most commonly, deposits on surface of the product will trap moisture. It is this
moisture that robs stainless steel of oxygen. Oxygen is the element that reacts with stainless steel to form a protective layer of chrome
oxide. Robbed of oxygen, this reaction does not take place and “crevice corrosion” or “surface rusting” occurs. To minimize this effect,
thoroughly clean your grill with soap and water, rinse with fresh water, and dry. Avoid using stainless steel polishes on grill exterior as
most leave a residue that may discolor when grill is heated.
Additionally, stainless steel that is exposed to high heat will change color and texture over time. The “amber” color of grill exterior and
internal components is not a failure of the stainless steel and will not affect products operation. When this happens, we recommend
using
“Magma Magic” Grill Restorer
to remove the “amber” color and return grill to its original luster. However, prolonged exposure to
extreme high heat will cause chromium and nickel to “burn out” of stainless steel. At this point stainless steel will become more susceptible
to corrosion and will start to deteriorate. We recommended replacement of internal components as they become seriously deteriorated.
We recommend thoroughly cleaning grill and internal components after each outing. Disassemble interior components and remove all
food residue. Use a “Scotch-Brite” pad or similar product and “Easy-Off” oven cleaner for cleaning grills interior components, followed by
thoroughly washing with soap and water, rinse with fresh water & dry. AVOID CONTACT OF OVEN CLEANER WITH SKIN, CONTROL
VALVE, IGNITOR ELECTRODE & WIRE. CAUTION: DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF ABRASIVE PAD ON EXTERIOR MIRROR FINISH AS IT WILL
SCRATCH SURFACE, USE ONLY A SOFT CLOTH. We recommend covering grill between uses. Grill covers are available at Magma retailers or
directly from Magma. See our website:
MagmaProducts.com.
After cooking Do Not turn grill to high heat to burn off grilling residue. The
grill is not a self cleaning oven & this extreme heat can damage stainless steel components.
Grill Grates
-
Clean with brass wire brush while grill is warm. Use Oven & Grill cleaner for burnt-on residue. Wash with
soapy water and dry prior to storage.
Ceramic Electrode
-
Located just beside the burner, it should be kept clean of grease and debris. Be careful not to damage the ceramic
insulation or the wire. See page 5 for electrode spark adjustment.
Control Valve
-
All valves are set and tested at our factory. Do not attempt to adjust or disassemble the valve in any way.
Call Magma if you suspect it is not adjusted properly. Clean valve with a cloth and remove any debris obstructing the orifice.
Repair/Replacement Parts -
All replacement parts are readily available at your Magma Retailers or directly from Magma.

• Magma LPG (Propane) Valves & Hose Kit allow
Magma Grills to be installed within an existing,
pre-regulated low pressure LPG (Propane)
System.
• Use only
Magma Type 3 Low Pressure LPG
(Propane) Valves.
See our
Valve
Application Guide
at

for correct valve.
• In North America, use
Magma A10-228 LPG
Hose Kit
in conjunction with
Type 3 Valve.
Outside North America, check with your local
dealer for proper hose and fittings.
• A primary shutoff valve must be used with this
control valve at point of connection. This allows
shut off of gas supply to hose leading to grill.
