MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Grill
Caution: To prevent injury, use care when cleaning a hot grill.
Note: Do not use a commercial cleaner on the cooking grid.
Do not brush grids while they are hot. Do not scrape grids.
Grids and Drip Pan
The grids are made of high quality stainless steel and should be
brushed with a brass brush while the grill is still warm.
The drip pan is made of high quality stainless steel as well and can
be cleaned with a scraping tool. The pan must be kept clean of heavy
build-up for the grill to perform properly and to reduce are-ups.
Clean as needed or approximately every 10 uses.
Burn Off
This process is much like that used in self-cleaning ovens and is
most efcient when completed after each use of the grill.
Caution: Do not open the grill during the burn off process.
Opening the grill during the burn off process may cause a
sudden grease re are up that could burn your face and arms.
Wait until the grill has cooled before opening.
1. Turn gas knob to HI. Close lid and allow the grill to burn for ten
minutes, or until no smoke is present. Do not allow the grill to
burn for more than 30 minutes.
2. Turn gas knob and supply to OFF and allow the grill to cool.
Grill Bottom
Once or twice a year remove cooking grids and drip pan to clean
the interior of the grill. Scrape off baked on residue with a putty
knife or brass brush and rinse with water.
Burner Maintenance
Stainless steel burners often turn reddish brown after use. This does
not affect the performance of the grill. When cleaning the interior of
the grill, remove the burners and clean with a brass brush. Wash
with water and a mild detergent.
Drip Pipe and Valve
Drain pipe and valve must be kept clear of grease and food particles
to allow the grease to drain properly. To clear the drain pipe and
valve, run a exible drain brush through both and remove.
Bucket
The bucket can be stored under the grill lid when the grill is not in
use.
Venturi Tubes
The venturi tubes allow air and gas to mix prior to burning, thus
ensuring an efcient ame. Spiders or other small insects may
build webs or nests inside the tubes obstructing air ow. Fire, or
ashback, can occur, in and/or around obstructed venturi tubes and
can cause damage to components beneath the grill or an unsafe
condition. To reduce risk, inspect and clean the Venturi Tubes at
least twice monthly when spiders are active. If the grill has been
unused for an extended period of time inspect the tubes before
using the grill.
Clean venturi tubes as follows:
1. Remove the cooking grids and drip pan.
2. Remove the burner from the grill.
3. Lay the burner face down and remove the four retaining screws
from the venturi tube plate and the burner. See Figure 26.
4. Use a small exible brush to remove any debris for the tube(s).
5. Flush with water.
6. Allow the tube(s) to dry before reinstalling.
7. Reinstall the venturi tubes, igniter and burner bracket to burner.

be easily cleaned with a spray-on stainless steel cleaner found in
most hardware stores.
