Care & Cleaning

WARNING: Always observe the following safety precautions, to prevent bodily injury and to assure that your Grill will operate properly :

CAUTION: Always allow sufficient time for the Grill to cool fully before handling or cleaning any of its parts.

BURNERS:

NOTE: All of the burners should be inspected frequently and cleaned as often as is necessary.

• Main Burner

WARNING: Always inspect the air shutter screen periodically to confirm that it is clear of food residue, spider webs or other insect debris. A clogged venturi tube can cause a fire to occur beneath the Grill, due to a flashback of gas (see Fig. 16).

NOTE: Remove the cooking Grills and the sear plates to inspect the burner at least once per year, or more frequently if required.

Loosen the burner attachment screws (from inside) to allow the burners to be pulled away from the valves far enough for a venturi brush or suitable cleaning device to be inserted into the burner venturi to clean away debris (see Fig. 16). Be careful not to damage the electrode ceramics.

Reinstall the burners properly over the valves (see Fig. 22). Use a wire brush or toothpick to clean the ports all around the sides of the burner (see Fig. 18). It is normal for some surface rust to appear on the burner. Severe rusting can enlarge the gas ports, however, which could cause changes in the Grill’s performance.
