To ensure safe and proper maintenance, we recommend you follow these directions carefully.
Clean internal parts of the grill regularly as determined by the amount of use and foods cooked. The entire
grill should be cleaned at least once a year.
In addition, keep the area around your grill or cart clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and
other ammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the ow of combustion and ventilation air.
If your LP-gas grill is placed in a stationary barbecue island, keep the access door for the propane cylinder
clear of any obstruction. Ensure the ventilation opening for cylinder enclosure is kept clear.
DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART OF THE GRILL.
Burners
Spiders and small insects occasionally inhabit or make
nests in the burner tubes, obstructing the gas ow.
Sometimes this results in a type of re in and around
the gas tubes called “ashback”. To reduce the risk of
ashback, this procedure should be followed at least
once a month or when your grill has not been used for
an extended period of time.
IMPORTANT: Prior to starting this procedure, turn
OFF all of the gas control knobs, shut off the fuel
supply, and disconnect the fuel line.
Remove burners from the grill by carefully lifting 1.
each burner up and away from the gas valve
orice.
Use a wire brush to clean the outer surface of each 2.
burner to remove food residue and dirt. Clean any
clogged ports with a stiff wire such as an opened
paper clip.
Inspect each burner for damage (cracks and 3.
holes). If any damage is found, replace the burner
and discontinue grill usage.
Upon reinstallation, inspect the gas valve orices 4.
for cleanliness and condition and the location of
the igniters.
Drip Pan
The full width drip pan will collect grease from the
main grill area. The pan should be cleaned after every
use to avoid the possibility of a grease re. Be sure to
allow the drip pan to cool prior to cleaning. You may
clean the drip pan with a solution of warm soapy water.
Make sure to rinse thoroughly to avoid staining.
Care of Stainless Steel
Do NOT use wire wool pads, scrappers, harsh abrasive,
scoring materials, bleaches, or harsh cleaners on your
cart or grill, or allow salt and vinegar mixtures to
remain in contact for a long period of time. This will
cause scratching, scoring, rusting and pitting.
We recommend that you clean stainless steel
components with a cleaner that is approved for
stainless steel and only clean when the grill is cool
and in indirect light. Never use steel wool.
Covering Your Cart or Grill
When not in use and after cooling, cover your cart or
grill with our full length, zippered side canvas cover.
(See your local Cal Flame dealer for details.) The cover
will help protect your cart or grill from detrimental
effects of weather and environmental pollutants.
Never put a cover on a hot grill. Allow the grill to cool
before covering.
After Use Care
The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after
cooking is completed and after turning off the ame.
Scrub the grill rack with a brass bristle barbecue •
brush and hot soapy water.
Wipe the grill with a damp soapy cloth and rinse •
with warm/hot, clean water. For more tenacious
deposits, including oil, grease and water-borne
deposits, use a multipurpose cream cleanser and
apply with a soft, damp cloth.
Dry with a soft, dry, clean towel if preferred.•
