We recommend cleaning the bowl after each use with a

cleaning agent. Use these in the same way as for the grill.
Do not use any sharp objects and do not knock the
appliance against hard surfaces.
Avoid contact with cold liquids while the appliance is
still hot.
11.3. Cleaning the burners and venturi tubes
11.3.1. Why clean the burners and venturi tubes?
Spiders and insects can make webs and nests in the
burners and venturi tubes, blocking the gas supply
to the burners. Consequence:
• You cannot ignite the burners. If you do manage to ignite
the burners, they will only produce smoky, yellow flames.
• The gas can ignite outside of the venturi tubes
level with the control knobs. These flames are known as
flashbacks and can cause serious injury and material
damage.
Damage as a result of blocked burners and venturi
tubes is considered poor maintenance and is not
covered by the warranty.
11.3.2. When to clean the burners and venturi tubes?
Clean the burners and venturi tubes on the appliance as
follows:
• Before first use after a lengthy period out of use.
• At least twice annually, once at the start of the season.
11.3.3. Cleaning the burners and venturi tubes
1. Remove the burners from the appliance as shown in the
figures. If you notice that a burner is damaged, you must
replace it.
2. Clean the burners and venturi tubes with
a small brush of self-made pipe cleaner (an opened
paper clip, pipe brush, etc.).
3. Put the burners back in place. Ensure that the venturi tubes
are situated above the openings of the gas valves.
