Care & Maintenance of Side Burner

SIDE BURNER CLEANING:

Clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Clear any clogged burner ports with a straightened paper clip. Never enlarge the burner ports. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break off and clog the port.

STAINLESS STEEL:

There are many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning procedure first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain. Do not use steel wool, as it will scratch the surface. To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with dry 100 grit sand paper in the direction of the grain.

SIDE BURNER GRATE:

The top burner grate is stainless steel. To avoid burns do not clean a hot grate. They may be wiped while in place with hot, soapy water, rinsed and wiped dry. Never immerse a hot grate in water.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING!!!

Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of the grill and cause the gas to flow from the front of the burner. This is a very dangerous condition, which can cause a fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate.

WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS

You should inspect the burners at least once a year or immediately after any of the following conditions occur:

1.The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow.

2.The grill does not reach temperature.

3.The grill heats unevenly.

4.The burners make popping noises.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE

If the grill does not function properly, use the following checklist before contacting your dealer for service. You may save the cost of a service call.
