Cleaning and Maintenance
GXL-45 Operator Manual
Cleaning the Drip Tray
The drip tray should be cleaned after each use. Failure to do so could result in a fire. After the grill is cooled
down, remove the drip tray by pulling it out from the grill.
Clean the drip tray with a clean cloth and hot soapy water, or an oven-style cleaning product and replace,
ensuring the tray is completely installed in the grill housing.
When using an oven-style cleaning product, follow the product’s instructions. Many such cleaners are toxic
and can damage the stainless-steel finish if not used properly.
If the grill was uncovered during rain, check the drip tray to drain any water from the tray.

At least twice a year conduct the following inspections to ensure safe grill operation:
Ventilation

Ensure grill area is clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors
and liquids
•
Ensure an unobstructed flow within the grill of combustion and ventilation air
•
Ensure the LP gas cylinder enclosure ventilation opening(s) are free and clear from debris
Burner Inspection
Visually check burner flames for correct operation. A properly setup grill should produce a blue flame with
little or no added colors.
