CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure that the burners are turned off prior to cleaning. Avoid unprotected contact with hot surfaces. Clean grill in an area where
cleaning solutions will not harm decks, lawns or patios. Do not use oven cleaner to clean any part of this gas grill. Do not use a
self cleaning oven to clean cooking grids or any other parts of the gas grill. Barbecue sauce and salt can be corrosive and will
cause rapid deterioration of the gas grill components unless cleaned regularly.
GRIDS AND WARMING RACK - The grids and warming rack are best cleaned during the pre-heat period with a soft brass wire brush. Steel
wool can be used for stubborn stains. Stainless grids will discolour permanently from normal usage, due to the high temperature of the
cooking surface.
CONTROL PANEL: The text on the control panel is printed directly onto the stainless steel, and with proper maintenance will remain dark
and legible. Do not use any abrasive cleaners (Ajax, Vim, Old Dutch etc.) to clean any stainless surfaces, especially the printed portion of
the control panel. It will gradually remove the text if used. Use only the Continental brand stainless steel cleaner available from your
Napoleon Dealer.
CLEANING INSIDE THE GAS GRILL - Remove cooking grids. Use a soft brass wire brush to clean loose debris from casting sides and
insides of the lid. Scrape sear plates with a putty knife or scraper, and use a wire brush to remove ash. Remove sear plates and brush
debris off of burners with a brass wire brush. Brush all debris from inside the gas grill into the removable drip pan. Ensure that the sear
plates are placed properly when they are reinstalled (Check assembly instructions for proper orientation).
DRIP PAN - Slide the drip pan out for easy cleaning. It should be cleaned frequently (every 4-5 uses) to avoid grease buildup. Grease and
excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located under the gas grill, and accumulate in the disposable grease tray below the drip pan.
Accumulated grease can cause a fire hazard. Do not line the drip pan with aluminum foil, as it can prevent the grease from flowing properly.
The pan should be scraped out with a putty knife or scraper, and all the debris should be scraped into the disposable grease tray. This tray

should be replaced every two to four weeks, depending on gas grill usage. For supplies, see your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer.

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS
When selecting meat for grilling, ask for meat
with a marbled fat distribution. The fat acts as a
natural tenderizer while cooking and will keep
the meat moist and juicy.
Preparing hamburgers to order is made easier
by varying the thickness of your patties. To add
an exotic taste to your meat, try adding hickory-
flavored woodchips into Napoleon's woodchip
smoker.
The joint connecting the thigh and the leg from
the skinless side, should be sliced 3/4 of the way
though in order for the meat to lay flatter on the
grill. This will help it to cook faster and more
evenly. To add a trademark taste to your
cooking, try adding mesquite-flavoured
woodchips in your Napoleon woodchip smoker.
Trim off the excess fat before grilling. Choose
thicker chops to get more tender meat.
Choose ribs that are lean and meaty. Grill until
meat easily pulls away from the bone.
Trim off the excess fat before grilling. Choose
extra thick chops to get more tender meat.
Select the larger size wieners. Slit the skin
lengthwise before grilling.
