Tube Burner: The burners are made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive
envi
ronment can cause surface corrosion to occur. This can be removed with a brass wire brush.
CAUTION! Beware of Spiders.
Spiders and insects are aracted to the smell of propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an
in
sect screen on the air shuer, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner but
Cleaning Inside The Gas Grill: Remove the cooking grids. Use a brass wire brush to clean loose debris from
the casng sides and underneath the lid. Scrape the sear plates with a puy knife or scraper, and use a wire
brush to remove the ash. Remove the sear plates and brush debris from the burners with the brass wire brush.
Sweep all debris from inside the gas grill into the drip pan.
Drip Pan: Accumulated grease is a re hazard. Clean the drip pan frequently (every 4 – 5 uses or as oen as
re
quired) to avoid grease buildup. Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located beneath
the gas grill and accumulate in the disposable grease tray below the drip pan. To access the disposable grease
tray or to clean the drip pan, slide the drip pan free of the grill. Never line the drip pan with aluminum foil,
sand or any other material as this could prevent the grease from owing properly. The pan should be scraped
out with a puy knife or scraper. Replace the disposable grease tray every 2 – 4 weeks, depending on gas grill
usage. For supplies, see your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer.
Cleaning The Outer Grill Surface: Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on any painted, porcelain or stain
less
steel parts of your Napoleon Grill. Doing so will scratch the nish. Exterior grill surfaces should be cleaned with
warm soapy water while the metal is sll warm to the touch. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless steel or
a non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direcon of the grain. Over me, stainless steel parts discolor when
heated, usually to a golden or brown hue. This discoloraon is normal and does not aect the performance of
the grill. Porcelain enamel components must be handled with addional care. The baked-on enamel nish is
glass-like, and will chip if struck. Touch-up enamel is available from your Napoleon Grill dealer.
WARNING! Hose: Check for abrasions, melng, cuts, and cracks in the hose. If any of these condions
exist, do not use the gas grill. Have the part replaced by your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer or qualied gas
installer.
Grids And Warming Rack: The grids and warming rack are best cleaned with a brass wire brush during the
pre-
heang period. Steel wool can be used for stubborn stains. It is normal that stainless grids (if equipped)
will discolor permanently from regular usage due to the high temperature of the cooking surface.
Cast Iron Cooking Grids: The cast iron cooking grids supplied with your new grill oer superior heat reten
on
and distribuon. By regularly seasoning your grids you are adding a protecve coang, which will aid in re
sist
ing
corrosion and increase your grids non-sck capabilies.
First Time Use: Wash the cooking grids by hand with mild dish soap and water to remove any residue from
the manufacturing process (never wash in a dish washer). Rinse thoroughly with hot water and dry completely
with a so cloth. This is important to avoid moisture from entering the cast iron.
Seasoning: Using a so cloth, spread VEGETABLE SHORTENING over the enre grid surface ensuring all grooves
and corners are covered. Do not use salted fats such as buer or margarine. Pre-heat your grill for 15 min
utes,
then place the seasoned cooking grids in the grill. Turn the burner control knobs to medium with the lid
closed. Allow the cooking grids to heat for approximately one-half hour. Turn all the burners to the “OFF”
posion and turn the gas o at the source. Let the cooking grids stand unl cool. This procedure should be
repeated several mes throughout the season, although it is not required for daily use (follow daily usage
procedure below).
Daily Usage: Before pre-heang, and cleaning with a brass wire grill brush, coat the enre top surface of the
cooking grids with VEGETABLE SHORTENING. Pre-heat the grill and then brush away any unwanted residue
with a brass wire brush.
Stainless Steel Cooking Grids: (upgrade kit available - see replacement parts list). Stainless steel cooking grids
are durable and corrosion resistant. They require less seasoning and maintenance then cast iron cooking grids.
It is recommended that you follow the daily usage procedure listed above although you may nd pre-heang
and cleaning your grids with a wire brush is sucient for your grilling needs.
Lights: To remove the lens from the light housing, insert a at screwdriver p between the lens and the hous
ing
and rock it gently. Do not touch the halogen bulb. The oil from your ngerps will reduce the life of the bulb.
To clean the lens, rst soak it in hot soapy water, then clean with a rag and non abrasive cleaner. To reinstall
the lens, simply snap it back into the housing.
Control Panel: The control panel text is printed directly on the stainless steel and with proper maintenance
will remain dark and legible. To clean the panel, use only warm soapy water or Connental brand stainless
steel
cleaner available from your Ultra Chef dealer. Never apply abrasive cleaners on any stainless surfaces,
espe
cially the printed poron of the control panel or the prinng will gradually rub o.
