•Lightly coat the burner with cooking oil to prevent excess rusting.
•If storing the grill indoors, disconnect the LP tank and leave the LP tank OUTDOORS.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE:
•For safe grilling and peak performance of your grill, perform these checks at least twice per year or after extended periods of storage.
HARDWARE
•Be sure to tighten up all hardware (nuts, bolts, screws, etc.) at least twice per year.
FIREBOX
•Remove the cooking grids, ceramic briquets, and burner from inside your grill. Use a brush with hot water and detergent to remove excess residue. NEVER use a commercial oven cleaner. Rinse com- pletely with water. Towel dry and replace all components as described in the assembly instructions.
BURNER AND VENTURIS
•Although your burner is constructed of high quality stainless steel, 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 corrosion damage. If found, replace the burner.
•Venturi tubes 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 venturis, 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 as per the assembly instructions.
