CARE AND MAINTENANCE

(Continued)

Regularly clean your LP gas grill between uses and espe- cially after extended periods of storage. Ensure the grill and its components are cool before cleaning. In order to extend the life and maintain the condition of your grill, we strongly recommend that the unit be covered when stored outside for any length of time, especially during the winter months.

Porcelain coated Cooking Surfaces

And Hood

Most residue on the Cooking Grids can be cleaned with a baking soda and water solution. For stubborn stains, use a non abrasive scouring powder. Do not use steel wool or other like cleaning products on the porcelain coated sur- faces. This will scratch the porcelain coating causing foods to stick.

Burner Maintenance

·Check the LP gas grill for gas leaks and burner obstructions before each use.

·Always turn off the LP gas cylinder at the

LP cylinder valve when not in use. Allow grill to cool before handling parts or cleaning.

Burning off the residue after cooking will keep the burners clean, provided the burners are free from any blockage. The burners should be removed and cleaned annually, or whenev- er heavy build-up is found, to ensure that there are no signs of blockage (debris, insects) in either the burner portholes, the primary air inlet, or the neck of the cast iron burners. (See burner cleaning instructions below)

How to clean porcelain coated cast iron burners

1)Make sure the LP cylinder and Grill control knobs are turned off. (See Figure below)

3)Remove the burners, by first removing cotter pin from each burner peg located at rear end of burner. (See Figure below)

brush	can be used to remove corrosion and food par-
ticles from		the burner surfaces. (See Figure below) Verify
that there		are no insects or insect nests blocking the inlet
hole.

Note: It is normal for surface rust to be present on the burners.

6)Once all burners are cleaned, place each burner back into grill and reinstall cotter pin. Note: When refitting the burners, be careful to check that they are positioned correctly. (Refer to Step 8 of Assembly Instructions for reinstallation)
