INFRARED BURNER MAINTENANCE

Cooking Grids

Burn Off

This process is much like that used in self-cleaning ovens and is most efficient when completed after each use of the grill.

Because of the high intensity of the Infrared burner, any drippings and food particles that fall onto the burner surface are immediately incinerated. However, some debris and residue may remain. To remove this residue after cooking, turn the grill on HIGH for 5-10 minutes with the hood OPEN.

Standard Cleaning

The cooking grids may also be removed and cleaned with a brass or stainless steel bristle brush and soapy solution. Standard oven cleaners may be used for further cleaning. Rinse the cooking grids thoroughly with clean water before using.

Maintenance

The Broilmaster requires very little maintenance. However, a periodic inspection of orifice openings and venturi inlets to clear obstructions to gas flow is recommended.

Burner Head

To maintain the performance of the Infrared burner it is important to operate the grill on HIGH for at least 5 minutes after each use. This procedure will leave some ash on the surface of the burner head. If it accumulates in excessive amounts, it will clog the small ports in the ceramic surface. To prevent this blockage, remove the cooking grid and the burner screen, and vacuum the burner surface with a low-suction vacuum cleaner every six months, or as necessary. When completing this procedure be careful not to scrape or strike the ceramic with the suction device, which may damage the ceramic.
