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 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.
Cleaning and Maintenance
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 each burner up 1.
and away from the gas valve orice.
Use a wire brush to clean the outer surface of each burner to 2.
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 holes). If any 3.
damage is found, replace the burner and discontinue grill
usage.
Upon reinstallation, inspect the gas valve orices for cleanliness 4.
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.
