If you notice that your grill is getting hard to light or that the

flame isn’t as strong as it should be, take the time to check and

clean the venturi’s.

In some areas of the country, spiders or small insects have been

known to create “flashback” problems. The spiders spin webs, build

nests and lay eggs in the grill’s venturi tube(s) obstructing the flow of

gas to the burner. The backed-up gas can ignite in the venturi behind

the control panel. This is known as a flashback and it can damage

your grill and even cause injury.

To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner and

venturi assembly should be removed from the grill and cleaned

before use whenever the grill has been idle for an extended period.

• Plated wire grates: Wash grates with concentrated grill

cleaner or use soap and water solution. Dry thoroughly and

store indoors between cookouts.

• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill’s high quality

appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm soapy water

and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. Baked-on grease

deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning

pad. Use only in direction of brushed finish to avoid damage.

Do not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.

• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of

the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on

cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to

clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

Storing Your Grill

• Clean cooking grates.

• Store in dry location.

• When LP cylinder is connected to grill, store outdoors in a well-

ventilated space and out of reach of children.

• Cover grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of grill

covers offered by manufacturer.

• Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and

disconnected, removed from grill and stored outdoors.
