Cooking Instrucons Inial Lighng: When lit for the rst me, the gas grill emits a slight odor. This is a normal temporary condion caused by the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and does not occur again. Simply run the main burners on high for approximately one-half hour. Main Burner Use: When searing foods, we recommend preheang the grill by operang all main burners in the high posion with the lid closed for approximately 10 minutes. Food cooked for short periods of me (sh, vegetables) can be grilled with the lid open. Cooking with the lid closed will ensure higher, more even temperatures that can reduce cooking me and cook meat more evenly. Food that has a cooking me longer than 30 minutes, such as roasts, can be cooked indirectly (with the burner lit opposite to the food placement). When cooking very lean meats, such as chicken breasts or lean pork, the grids can be oiled before pre-heang to reduce scking. Cooking meat with a high degree of fat content can create are-ups. Either trim the fat or reduce temperatures to inhibit this. Should a are-up occur, move food away from the ames and reduce the heat. Leave the lid open. See Your All Season Grill cookbook by Napoleon for more detailed instrucons. WARNING! Always wear protecve gloves and safety glasses when servicing your grill. WARNING! To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the grill is cool. Avoid unprotected contact with hot surfaces. Ensure all burners are turned o. Clean grill in an area where cleaning soluons will not harm decks, lawns, or paos. Do not use oven cleaner to clean any part of this gas grill. Do not use a self-cleaning oven to clean cooking grids or any other parts of the gas grill. Barbecue sauce and salt can be corrosive and will cause rapid deterioraon of the gas grill components unless cleaned regularly. Cleaning Instrucons Note: Stainless steel tends to oxidize or stain in the presence of chlorides and suldes, parcularly in coastal areas and other harsh environments, such as the warm, highly humid atmosphere around pools and hot tubs. These stains could be perceived as rust, but can be easily removed or prevented. To provide stain prevenon and removal, wash all stainless steel and chrome surfaces every 3-4 weeks or as oen as required with fresh water and/or stainless steel cleaner. WARNING! Do not use this grill under extended awnings. Failure to follow these instrucons could result in a re or personal injury. DANGER! Do not put this grill in storage or travel mode immediately aer use. Allow the grill to cool to the touch before moving or storing. Failure to do so could result in a re resulng in property damage, personal injury or death. Cast Iron Cooking Grids: The cast iron cooking grids supplied with your new grill oer superior heat retenon and distribuon. By regularly seasoning your grids you are adding a protecve coang, which will aid in resisng 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 minutes, 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. Cleaning Inside The Gas Grill : Remove the cooking grids. Use a brass wire brush to clean loose debris from casng sides and underneath the lid. Brush all debris from inside the gas grill into the removable drip pan.www.napoleongrills.com

Drip Pan: Accumulated grease is a re hazard. Clean the drip pan frequently to avoid grease buildup. Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located beneath the gas grill and accumulate. To clean, 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. CAUTION! Ensure drip pan is empty and clean before transporng grill in vercal posion. Cleaning The Outer Grill Surface: Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on any painted, porcelain or stainless 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! Always wear protecve gloves and safety glasses when cleaning your grill. WARNING! Turn o the gas at the source and disconnect the unit before servicing. To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the grill is cool. A leak test must be performed annually and whenever any component of the gas train is replaced or gas smell is present. Maintenance Instrucons We recommend this gas grill be thoroughly inspected and serviced annually by a qualied service person. At all mes keep the gas grill area free from combusble materials, gasoline and other ammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the ow of venlaon and combuson air. Burner: The burner is made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive environment 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 insect screen on the air shuer, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner but does not enrely eliminate the problem. A nest or web can cause the burner to burn with a so yellow or orange ame or cause a re (ashback) at the air shuer underneath the control panel. To clean the inside of the burner, it must be removed from the gas grill: Remove the screw (s) that aach the cross light bracket and the burner to the base. Slide the burner back and upwards to remove. Cleaning: Use a exible venturi tube brush to clean the inside of the burner. Shake any loose debris from the burner through the gas inlet. Check the burner ports and valve orices for blockages. Burner ports can close over me due to cooking debris and corrosion; use an opened paperclip to clean them. The ports are easier to clean if the burner is removed from the grill, but it can also be done with the burner installed. CAUTION! Take care not to enlarge the holes. Ensure the insect screen is clean, ght, and free of any lint or other debris. Reinstallaon: Reverse the procedure to reinstall the burner. Check that the valve enters the burner when installing. Replace cross light bracket and ghten screws to complete reinstallaon.www.napoleongrills.com

WARNING! When reinstalling the burner aer cleaning it is very important that the valve/orice enters the burner tube before lighng your gas grill. If the valve is not inside the burner tube a re or explosion could occur. 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 Grill dealer or qualied gas installer.www.napoleongrills.com
