CARE AND CLEANING:
The BISTRO gas barbecue is designed to withstand the high temperatures achieved under normal operating
conditions. If there is any excess fat or grease, it is best removed while the barbecue is still warm. Clean regularly
to prevent food, grease, and fat build-up.
Never scrape or scratch the hot painted surfaces. Never douse the hot surfaces with water.
HOSE:
If the hose shows signs of deterioration or damage, use a soap and water solution to
test the entire outer surface of the hose while under pressure checking for bubbles
(this would indicate a leak in the hose). Replace the hose at the rst sign of a leak
or if age-cracking becomes apparent. Remember to turn the gas off before removing
the hose.
INJECTORS / MAIN BURNER ORIFICES:
Injectors should be inspected on a regular basis to ensure they are not blocked.
Cleaning can be performed on these injectors by removing the injector from the
valve assembly. Using a very small wire or drill bit remove any obstruction in the
orice (BE CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE THE ORIFICE) a small pipe cleaner could
also be used. When installing the injectors, an approved TEFLON or pipe thread
sealant must be used before the injector is re-installed.
COOKING SURFACES:
Clean regularly to prevent food, grease, and fat build-up. The cooking grates have been porcelain enameled for
durability and ease of cleaning. These grates may be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaning solution designed for
kitchen use.
PORCELAIN ENAMEL CASTINGS:
Clean regularly to prevent food, grease, and fat build-up. Cleaning with a dry or slightly damp cloth or soft brush
will keep porcelain enamel surfaces looking new. To clean, use only a kitchen appliance cleaner or a polish designed
for use on porcelain enamel surfaces.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE PORCELAIN ENAMEL FINISHES AS THIS WILL PERMANENTLY SCRATCH
THESE SURFACES
DRIP TRAY:
The drip tray is located under the front control panel. To remove, pull it slightly up to unhook it from its runners
then pull it straight out. This device catches grease and other cooking debris.
Check the grease tray and metal foil container for accumulations after using the gas grill and clean as necessary.
Use only a mild abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean the drip tray. Clean the drip tray on a regular basis or re
could occur. The metal foil container is a 4 x 8 Loaf Pan EZ-Foil container that can be acquired at any supermarket
or hardware store. Replace by opening cabinet doors and sliding container out of its place under the engine.
STAINLESS STEEL PANELS:
Stainless steel is a very durable material and should last indenitely with minimal care. Due to the nature of the
brushed surface, minor scratches could appear with normal use and handling. These scratches can be removed with
the use of a medium or ne grade SCOTCH BRITE ® PAD or similar polishing pad. Apply even, gentle pressure and
always rub with the grain of the steel. DO NOT rub against the grain as damage could result. DO NOT use steel
wool as pieces will be left behind and these pieces will rust.
STORAGE:
When this barbecue is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the gas supply. It is recommended that the barbecue
be stored in a dry place. Failure to do so could cause problems with the ignition system. Disconnect the tank and
store the tank outside in a well-ventilated area away from children. If the barbecue is to be stored outdoors, a
weatherproof cover should be used. Contact your local dealer for part availability.
