General Grill Cleaning

• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease

and smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not

painted at the factory (and should never be painted).

Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or use a

grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and

bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not

apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted

• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.

• Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a

concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to

and failure of parts can result.

• Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition,

most residue can be wiped away with baking

soda/water solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use

nonabrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.

• Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or

nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry

with a soft nonabrasive cloth.

• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill’s high

quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and

warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after

each use. Baked-on grease deposits may require the

use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in

direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do not

use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.

• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean

any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose

bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is

NOT recommended to clean cooking surfaces while

CAUTION INSIDE BURNER SPIDER AND WEBS If your grill is getting hard to light or the flame is weak,

check and clean the venturis and burners.

Spiders or small insects are known to create

“flashback” problems by building nests and laying

eggs in the barbeque’s venturi or burner, obstructing

the flow of gas. The back-up gas can ignite behind

the control panel. This flashback can damage your

barbeque and cause injury. To prevent flashbacks

and ensure good performance the burner and venturi

tube assembly should be removed and cleaned when

ever the barbeque has been idle for an extended

Cleaning the Burner Assembly

We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes.

Use the one easiest for you.

(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works

well) into a small hook. Run the hook through each

burner tube several times.

(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do

not use a brass wire brush). Run the brush through

each burner tube several times.

(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into

the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each

port to make sure air comes out each hole.

6. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove

food residue and dirt.

7. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an

8.Check burner for damage due to normal wear and

corrosion, some holes may become enlarged. If any

large cracks or holes are found, replace burner.
