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 Tamers thoroughly 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.

Annual Cleaning of The Grill Interior

Burning-off the grill after every cookout wilt keep it

ready for instant use. However, once a year you should give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to keep it in top

operating condition. Follow these steps:

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

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

. Detach the LP gas hose and regulator assembly from your gas grill. Use a 7/8" open end wrench turning the fitting counter-clockwise. Inspect for any damage and replace as necessary with manufactures re- placement part number found on the Parts List.

4.Remove and clean the Flame Tamers, Cooking Grids, Cooking Rack and Grill Burners.

5. Cover each Gas Valve Orifice with aluminum foil.

. Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a fiber pad or nylon brush, and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.

7.Remove aluminum foil from Orifices and check each Orifice for obstruction.

. Check each Spark Electrode, adjusting as needed. The space between the Spark Electrode Tip and Spark Receiver should be approximately 3/16".

Replace the Burners and adjust the Gas Collector

Box. The edge of the collector box should be overlapping the Burner Port.

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.

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 gas fitting 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.
