Cleaning The Cooking Grids

Before initial use and periodically we suggest you wash your Cooking Grids in a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or vegetable brush to clean your Cooking Grids.

Cleaning The Flame Tamers

Periodically you should wash the Flame Tamers in a soap and warm water solution. Use a vegetable brush to remove stubborn burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the Flame Tamersthoroughly before you reinstall them into the cooking bowl.

Cleaning The Grease Tray and Receptacle

To reduce the chance of fire, the Grease Draining Tray and Grease Receptacle should be visually inspected before each grill use. Remove any grease and wash Grease Tray and Receptacle with a mild soap and warm water solution.

Cleaning the Inside of the Grill Lid

Grease can have a tendency to build up on the inside of the Grill Lid and could drip onto deck or patio when the lid is opened. Visually inspect the inside of the Grill Lid before each grill use. Remove any grease and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution.

Annual Cleaning of The Grill Interior

1.Turn all Burner Valves to the full OFF position.

2.Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position.

10.Replace Flame Tamers and the Cooking Grids.

11.Reconnect the gas source and observe the Burner flame for correct operation.

Cleaning Exterior Surfaces:

Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, we suggest you wash your grill using a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or sponge for this process. Do not use a stiff wire or brass brush that might remove paint during the clean- ing process.

Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel Surfaces:

Weathering and extreme heat can cause exterior stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color. Machine

oils used in the manufacturing process of stainless steel can also cause this tanning color. After removing the protective PVC film from the Grill Lid and Control Panel use a Stainless Steel Cleaner to polish the stainless steel surfaces of your grill. Never use abra- sive cleaners or scrubbers because they will scratch and damage your grill. Follow these steps for the best results.

1.Turn the LP gas tank valve (clockwise) to the full OFF position. Disconnect the regulator and hose assem-

bly from LP gas tank. Cover exposed gas fitting with aluminum foil.

2.Remove dirt or grease using a soft cloth and polish stainless surfaces. Wipe with a soft cloth.

3.Remove aluminum foil from exposed gasfitting and allow grill to air dry before attaching the regulator and hose to your LP gas tank.

Keep outdoor cooking gas appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flam- mable vapors and liquids.
