BURNER AND VENTURI

•Although your burner is constructed of cast iron, it will rust as a result of the extreme heat and acids from cooking foods. Regularly inspect the burner for cracks, abnormal holes, and other signs of corro- sion damage. If found, replace the burner.

•Venturi tube can become blocked by spiders and other insects building their nests. Blocked venturi tubes can prevent gas flow to the burner and could possibly result in a venturi fire. To clean the venturi, remove the ash guard/grease cup holder plate from between the legs. Then, remove the three retaining bolts from the bottom of the burner and remove the burner from the grill. Use a pipe cleaner or a small wire and insert into the opening of the venturi. Remove any obstructions that may exist. Replace the burner, ash guard/grease cup holder plate and follow the “Gas Leak Testing” section of this manual.

COOKING GRILLS

•Clean with mild soap detergent and water. A brass bristled brush or a nylon cleaning pad can be used to remove residue from the chrome plated cooking surface. Do not use steel wire bristles to clean the chrome plated cooking grill. Steel can cause the chrome plating to chip or crack. DO NOT use a commercial oven cleaner.

HEAT SHIELD

•Periodically, it may be necessary to inspect and clean the heat shield to prevent excess grease build-up. When the grill is cold, remove the cooking grill. Inspect the heat shield and replace if broken or damaged. Do not allow heat shield to become damaged to the extent that it may fall through onto the burner. Replace the heat shield and cooking grill and light the burner. Operate the grill on "HIGH" for 10 minutes to remove the excess grease.
