CARE AND MAINTENANCE
STAINLESS STEEL:
The grill is made from non-rusting and non-magnetic stainless steel. After initial usage, areas of the grill may dis-
color from the intense heat given off by the burners, this is normal. There are many different stainless steel clean-
ers available. Always use the mildest cleaning procedure first, scrub-
bing in the direction of the grain. To touch up noticeable scratches in
the stainless steel, sand very lightly with wet 100 grit emery paper in
the direction of the grain. Specks of grease can gather on the surfaces
of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give the appear-
ance of rust. For removal use an abrasive pad (Scotch Brite is good) in
conjunction with a stainless steel cleaner. Always rub in the direction of
the grain.
Note:
Stainless steel tends to corrode in presence of chlorides and sulfides espe-
cially in coastal areas. To ensure corrosion prevention, wash all stainless
steel surfaces every 3-4 weeks with fresh water and stainless cleaner. Keep
grill covered when not in use.
ELECTRODES:
Wipe with a water dampened cotton swab. Be careful not to damage
the electrode (see Fig. 45).
GRILL BURNER:
Ensure gas supply has been turned off. Remove the grill grates, then
lift out the grill radiant tray. Grasp the burner, pull it up and slightly to
the rear of the unit so the burner head comes off the brass orifice at the
front, angle the burner sideways, and remove.
TO REMOVE THE U-BURNERS FOR CLEANING
Grip the U-burner as shown in the photo (Fig. 46) and press downwards
with your thumbs on the bracket in the back while lifting up on the U-
Burner. In some cases it may be necessary to use a screw driver to pry
open the slot to release the U-burner. After cleaning, when re-installing
the U-Burner ensure the U-Burner is completely level and locked in
place. This is needed to ensure your grill provide even cooking perfor-
mance.
GRILL BURNER CLEANING:
Clean the exterior of the burner with a stainless steel wire brush. Clear
stubborn scale with a metal scraper. Clear any clogged ports with a
straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break
off and clog the port. Shake out any debris through the air shutter. Use
a flashlight to inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is not blocked. If
obstructions can be seen, use a metal wire coat hanger that has been
straightened (See Fig. 47).
ORIFICE CLEANING:
With the burner removed, remove the orifice and shine a flashlight through the opening to ensure there is no
blockage. Use a needle to clear any debris. Be extremely careful not to enlarge the hole or break off the needle
(Fig. 47).
