Periodic Cleaning
To remove ashes from the bowl, move control rod side
to side so damper blades sweep ashes through the bowl
vents and into the ash catcher. Figure 7.
CAUTION: Be sure that burner is OFF and barbecue
is cool before cleaning.
Do not enlarge burner slots when cleaning.
To clean burner: Brush the outside of the burner tube
and the burner slot section with a brass wire brush.
Figure 8.
CAUTION: Do not enlarge the burner slots or the
gas orifice when cleaning.
TO CLEAN KETTLE:
■ 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 clear water.
For a more thorough cleaning (to be done at least
once a year):
1. Remove ashes after coals are fully extinguished.
2. Remove the grates and Char-Baskets.
3. Clean the porcelain finish with with a spray-on type
oven cleaner. Spray surfaces heavily with the oven
cleaner and leave on long enough to soften
accumulated grease.
4. Wipe out with paper towels. Wash with a mild
detergent and water. Rinse well with clear water and
wipe dry.
Storage
■ When the Performer Grill is stored indoors, the gas
supply MUST BE DISCONNECTED and the LP
tank stored outdoors in a well-ventilated space.
■ LP tanks must be stored outdoors in a well-
ventilated area out of the reach of children.
Disconnected LP tanks must have threaded valve
plugs tightly installed and must not be stored in a
building, garage or any other enclosed area.
■ After a period of storage and/or nonuse, the
barbecue should be checked for gas leaks and any
obstructions in the burner tube before using. (See
section “Maintenance.”)
■ Check that the areas around the tank, hose and
burner assembly are free from debris that might
obstruct the flow of gas or air.

Refilling the LP tank
Removal of the LP tank
1) Close tank valve (turn clockwise).
2) Slide the collar back on the quick disconnect to
disengage the fitting. Figure 9.
3) Lift tank off.
To refill take LP tank and tank filler adapter to a "Gas
Propane" dealer.
WARNING: We recommend that your LP tank be
filled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualified
attendant, who fills the tank by weight. IMPROPER
FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
CAUTION: If you exchange your LP tank, make sure
you get a similar tank in return. Your LP tank is
equipped with a quick-disconnect valve. Other LP
tanks are not compatible with your barbecue
connection.
