CARE AND CLEANING:
The BISTRO gas barbecue is designed to withstand the high temperatures achieved under normal operating conditions. If there is any excess fat or grease, it is best removed while the barbecue is still warm. Clean regularly to prevent food, grease, and fat
Never scrape or scratch the hot painted surfaces. Never douse the hot surfaces with water.
HOSE:
If the hose shows signs of deterioration or damage, use a soap and water solution to test the entire outer surface of the hose while under pressure checking for bubbles (this would indicate a leak in the hose). Replace the hose at the first sign of a leak or if
INJECTORS / MAIN BURNER ORIFICES:
Injectors should be inspected on a regular basis to ensure they are not blocked. Cleaning can be performed on these injectors by removing the injector from the valve assembly. Using a very small wire or drill bit remove any obstruction in the
orifice (BE CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE THE ORIFICE) a small pipe cleaner could Figure 32 also be used. When installing the injectors, an approved TEFLON or pipe thread

STAINLESS STEEL PANELS:
Stainless steel is a very durable material and should last indefinitely with minimal care. Due to the nature of the brushed surface, minor scratches could appear with normal use and handling. These scratches can be removed with the use of a medium or fine grade SCOTCH BRITE ® PAD or similar polishing pad. Apply even, gentle pressure and always rub with the grain of the steel. DO NOT rub against the grain as damage could result. DO NOT use steel wool as pieces will be left behind and these pieces will rust.
