Cleaning the Burner Assembly

Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner
assembly or if you have trouble igniting appliance.
1. Turn gas OFF at control knob and LP cylinder and
disengage regulator from cylinder.
2. Open top cover, remove cooking basket and cooking
Chamber, shown A. This will expose the burner from
inside, shown B.
3. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food
residue and dirt.
4. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open
paper clip.
5. Carefully lay the appliance on its back, with control panel
facing up shown C.
6. Disconnect electrode wire underneath appliance, shown C.
7. Remove screws and disengage front legs from appliance.
8. Remove screws and disengage control panel assembly
and heat shield from unit, shown D.
9. Clean inner burner as recommended below, shown E.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tube. Use the
one easiest for you.
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works
well) into a small hook. Run hook through burner tube
several times.
(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do
not use a brass wire brush), run the brush through burner
tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into
the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each port
to make sure air comes out each hole.
10. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and
corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any large
cracks or holes are found replace burner.
11. Carefully replace heat shield and control panel assembly .
12. Reattach electrode wire to ignitor.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tube must re-engage over valve
opening. See illustration, shown F.
13. Reattach front legs. Carefully stand the unit upright.
14. Reposition inner liner, cooking basket.

General Appliance Cleaning
•Clean appliance often, preferably after each cookout. If a
bristle brush is used to clean any of the appliance cooking
surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces
prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking
surface while appliance is hot. Appliance should be cleaned
at least once a year.
•Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and
smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not painted at the
factory (and should never be painted). Apply a strong
solution of detergent and water or use a appliance cleaner
with scrub brush on insides of appliance lid and bottom.
Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply caustic
appliance/oven cleaner to painted surfaces.
• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.
Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a
concentrated appliance cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to
and failure of parts can result.
•Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most
residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or
specially formulated cleaner. Use nonabrasive scouring
powder for stubborn stains.
•Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or nonabrasive
cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft
nonabrasive cloth.
•Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your appliance's high
quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm
soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use.
B
Baked-on grease deposits may require the use of an abrasive
plastic cleaning pad. Use only in direction of brushed finish to
avoid damage. Do not use abrasive pad on areas with
graphics.
• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of
the appliance cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles
remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not
recommended to clean cooking surfaces while appliance is
hot.
