Insect Alert
The barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, attracts spiders and insects.
They can nest in the Venturi section of the burner tube causing gas to flow back
out of the air shutter. This could result in a fire in and around the burner tube
under the chamber. It can cause serious damage to your barbecue, rendering it
unsafe to operate.
We strongly recommend that you inspect and clean the burner tube at least once
a year, or if any of the following symptoms appear:
1) Smell of gas in conjunction with the
burner flames appearing very yellow and lazy.
2) Burner makes popping noises.
Danger
Failure to correct these symptoms may result in a fire which can cause serious bodily
injury or death and cause damage to property.
CLEANING
AND MAINTENANCE
After a period of non-use, we recommend you perform the following maintenance
and cleaning procedures at least once a year, especially at the start of a new season.
1) Remove ashes after coals are fully extinguished.
2) Remove the grates and charcoal tube.
3) Clean the porcelain finish with a cleaner that will soften accumulated grease.
4) Wipe out with paper towels. Wash with a mild detergent and water. Rinse well
with clear water and wipe dry.
To Clean Kettle and Lid
While lid is warm, wipe the inside with a paper towel to prevent grease buildup.
For outer surfaces, use a warm soapy water solution and rinse well with water.
To Clean Burner
At a minimum of twice a year, it is important to remove the burner and clean it,
making sure that all dirt and rust is removed. Use a wire to clean out the hole in
the burner. Make sure all holes are clear. If the burner has been damaged or has
rusted, replace it as soon as possible. If the burner is in good shape, reinstall it in
the correct position.
