USE AND CARE OF YOUR FIRE MAGIC BARBECUE
FLAVOR FROM WOOD CHIPS OR CHARCOAL
Convenient *Fire Magic Gourmet Grilling Chips are
sold in several different popular wood types. These
chips are pre-moistened and sealed in cans which can
be opened, by lifting the tabbed lid, before placing the
entire can on the flavor grid to add natural wood smoke
flavor to the food you grill. There is no mess to clean
up. Just discard the can of ashes after there is no longer
any wood smoke aroma.
You may also add wood chips, wood chunks or the
natural wood charcoal of your choice to the flavor grid.
We recommend placing wood outside the direct
cooking zone or wrapping it in perforated aluminum
foil. Soaking wood before use will slow burning and
increase smoke flavor. Wood and charcoal ash will
remain in the flavor grid after use. The grid can be
easily removed and cleaned when the unit has fully
cooled.
CARE OF STAINLESS STEEL COMPONENTS
Your barbecue has a stainless steel oven and front
panel, the following care instructions will keep your unit
looking and working like new. Stainless steel
components are constructed of the finest prime grade
type 304 stainless steel. Meticulous attention has been
given to maintain the attractive finish throughout the
manufacturing process. Like the stainless steel used in
commercial kitchens, your barbecue requires regular
cleaning and occasional buffing to maintain its bright,
clean appearance.
Deposits of dirt and grease can be removed easily with
*Fire Magic Foaming Barbecue and Grill Cleaner.
Deposits should be removed before they are allowed
to bake onto the finish. To remove more
stubborn deposits, use a scouring pad
recommended for stainless steel. Be sure
to always rub in the direction of the polishing
lines (Figure 9). Oven cleaner may be
used, according to manufacturer's
instructions, to remove cooked-on food
deposits. Special cleaning agents and
polishing pads recommended for stainless
steel are available at your local barbecue
dealer, hardware store or supermarket.
CAUTION: Never use ordinary steel wool or steel
brushes on stainless steel. Tiny particles left behind
may rust and stain the finish. Abrasive pads
recommended for restoring the grain in stainless steel
will, over a period of time, scratch or dull the surface of
glass or porcelain-coated products.
BURNER MAINTENANCE
Fire Magic Burners are constructed of heavy-duty cast
stainless steel (cast brass and porcelainized cast iron
burners are also available) and will withstand many
years of outdoor use, if ordinary precautions are taken.
Once or twice a year inspect the burners and determine
if scale is building up excessively. Burners can be
removed and scraped to remove debris or scale from
ports. Spray cast iron with vegetable oil occasionally to
inhibit oxidation. Replace burners immediately if they
show any signs of weak or thin walls. Refer to the
bottom of page 4, Figure 3 for installing burners.
STAINLESS STEEL COOKING GRIDS
Fire Magic Stainless Steel Cooking Grids are finished
with a special matte (satin) finish. This special matte-
finish provides a more stick-resistant cooking surface
that makes outdoor barbecuing easy and enjoyable.
And, because it is made of type 304 stainless steel,
you'll enjoy a lifetime of outdoor cooking. For best
cooking performance, follow the simple steps of 'Care
and Maintenance' after every use. Fire Magic Stainless
Steel Cooking Grids are warranted for as long as you
own them.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE (Stainless Steel Grids)
To maintain your stainless steel cooking grids we
recommend lightly brushing the grids after use with a
brass or stainless steel wire brush. Before use, brush
again if necessary and spray a light coat of vegetable
oil over the cooking surface. Discoloration or stubborn
food particles can be removed with a heavy-duty
abrasive or stainless steel scouring pad. Grills can also
be washed in an automatic dishwasher or cleaned with
strong cleaning solutions, including oven cleansers.
We do not recommend ordinary steel or wire brushes,
which may leave tiny metal particles on the grids which
cause discoloration, but not permanent damage.
PORCELAIN COATED CAST IRON GRIDS
Fire Magic Porcelain-Coated Cast-Iron Grids are
coated with a special high-temperature porcelain in a
matte (satin) finish. This special matte-finish porcelain
coating provides a stick-resistant cooking surface that
makes outdoor barbecuing easy and enjoyable. And,
because it resists corrosion, the finish also increases
cooking grid durability to provide years of cooking
enjoyment. For best cooking performance, the wide
side of the grid bars should face up.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE (Porcelain Coated)
A spray coat of vegetable oil and light brushing with a
brass grid brush before and after use is all it takes to
maintain cooking readiness and ensure long life.
PROTECTING PARTS AND FINISH
Barbecue covers will protect the finish and extend the
life and appearance of Fire Magic Barbecues equipped
with smoke ovens. The covers are designed to protect
the finish against scratches, corrosion and oxidation.
Each cover has been cut and sewn by hand to fit a
particular smoke oven model. Flaps extend from the
sides and back. In windy areas, place weights on the
flaps or inside the sleeve on the flaps to keep the cover
from blowing off.
