General Grill Cleaning (con't.)
Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill's high
·
quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm
soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use.
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
grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on
cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean
cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

If you notice that your grill is getting hard to light or that the
flame isn't as strong as it should be, take the time to check and
clean the burners.

In some areas of the country, spiders or small insects have been
known to create "flashback" problems. The spiders spin webs, build
nests and lay eggs in the grill's burner tube(s) obstructing the flow of
gas to the burner. The backed-up gas can ignite in the burner
behind the control panel. This is known as a flashback and it can
damage your grill and even cause injury.
To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner
assembly should be removed from the grill and cleaned before use
whenever the grill has been idle for an extended period.

Storing Your Grill

• Clean cooking grates.
• Cover grill when stored outdoors. Choose from a cover
offered by the manufacturer.
• When removing grill from storage, follow "Cleaning the Burner
Assembly" instruction before starting grill.

6. We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the
one easiest for you:
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light-weight coat hanger works well) into
a small hook. Run the hook through each burner tube
several times.
(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not use
a brass brush). Run the brush through each burner tube
several times.
(C) Wear ear 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.
7. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue
and dirt.
8. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper
clip.
9. Check burner for damage due to normal wear and corrosion.
Some holes many become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes
are found, replace burner.
10. Re-attach electrode to burner.
11. Carefully replace burners. VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes
must re-engage valve opening.
12. Re-attach burners to brackets inside burner box.
13. Reposition carryover tubes and re-attach to burners.
14. Replace emitters and cooking grates.
