Maintenance Instructions

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE GAS GRILL - Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean any stainless steel parts. Exterior grill surfaces should be cleaned while warm to the touch, with warm soapy water. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless steel cleaner or a non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Do not use steel wool, as it will scratch the finish. Stainless steel parts will discolour when heated, usually to a golden or brown colour. This discolouration is normal and will not affect the performance of the grill.

Turn off the gas at the source and disconnect unit before servicing. Maintenance should only be done when the grill is cool, to avoid the possibility of burns. A leak test must be performed annually, and whenever any component of the gas train is replaced.

COMBUSTION AIR ADJUSTMENT - (This must be done by a qualified gas installer.) The air shutter is factory set and should not have to be adjusted under normal conditions. However, some extreme field conditions may exist that require adjustment. When the air shutter is adjusted correctly, the flames will be dark blue with light blue tips, and occasional yellow tips.

If the burner is getting too little air, the flames will be lazy yellow, and possibly produce soot. If the burner is getting too much air, the flames will be lifting erratically from the burner and may cause difficulties when lighting.

1.To adjust the air shutter, remove cooking grids and sear plates and leave lid open. The back cover must be removed for back burner air shutter adjustment.

2.Loosen air-shutter lock screw and open or close air shutter as required. The normal settings are:

Main Burner	Propane	1/8"	Back Burner	Propane	Full Open
	Natural	1/8"		Natural	3/8"

3.Light burners and set to high. Visually inspect burner flames. When shutters are set, turn burners off, tighten locking screw, and replace removed parts. Ensure that the insect screens are installed.

HOSE - Check for abrasion, melting, cuts and cracks. If any of these conditions exist, do not use gas grill. Have part replaced by your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer, or qualified gas installer.
