Deep Cleaning and Maintenance
CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE BARBECUE
Over time, the performance of your barbecue can
diminish if it has not been maintained properly.
Low temperatures, uneven heat and food sticking
to cooking grates are all signs that cleaning and
maintenance are overdue. When your barbecue is o
and cool, start by cleaning the inside from the top down.
A thorough cleaning is recommended after every five
cooks. Consistent use may require more frequent
cleanings.
Cleaning the Lid
From time to time you may notice ‘paint-like’ flakes
on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke
vapours slowly change into carbon and deposit on
the inside of your barbecue’s lid. These deposits will
eventually peel and look very similar to paint. These
deposits are non-toxic, but the flakes could fall onto
your food if you do not clean the lid regularly.
1) Use a plastic scraper to remove carbonised grease
from inside the lid(A).
Cleaning the Bowl Liner and Cookbox
Look inside the cookbox for any grease accumulation
or leftover food particles. Excessive accumulation can
cause a fire.
It is recommended to use gloves when removing
heating elements as they will be dirty.
1) Remove the temperature controller.
2) Remove cooking grates (B).
Do not use metal brushes to clean heating elements.
3) Remove the heating elements by turning the thumb
screw(s) on the front of the barbecue anticlockwise
until the screw releases(C).
4) Slide the heating elements towards the back of
the barbecue. Taking care not to bend the heating
element, tilt it upwards and remove it (D).
5) Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris o of the
sides and bottom of the bowl liner into the opening
in the bottom of the cookbox(E). This opening
funnels debris into the slide-out catch pan.
6) Remove and clean the slide-out catch pan. Refer to
‘Meal-to-Meal Maintenance’.
The bottom liner of the barbecue can be removed
and washed with warm soapy water. The bowl liner is
dishwasher safe. Take care not to bend the bowl liner.
After cleaning, reinstall the bowl liner. Do not operate
the barbecue without the bowl liner.
To reinstall the heating elements, insert the heating
elements into the corresponding holes inside the front
of the barbecue. Reattach by turning thumb screws to
the right. Do not over-tighten.
Clean heating elements by allowing food to burn o.
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE BARBECUE
The outside of your barbecue may include aluminium,
stainless steel and plastic surfaces.
WEBER recommends the following methods based on
the surface type:
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
Clean stainless steel using a grease-cutting soap. Use
a microfibre cloth to clean in the direction of the grain
of the stainless steel. Rinse with clear water and dry
thoroughly. Do not use paper towels. Do not use bleach
or chlorinated cleaning products on stainless steel.
Note: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with
abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish. They
will change the colour of the metal by removing the top
chromium oxide film coating.
Cleaning Painted Surfaces and
PlasticComponents
Clean painted and plastic components with grease-
cutting soap. Rinse with clear water and dry thoroughly.
Cleaning the Outside of Barbecues that
are in Unique Environments
If your barbecue is subject to a particularly harsh
environment, you will want to clean the outside more
often. Acid rain, pool chemicals and salt water
can cause surface rusting to appear. Wipe down
the outside of your barbecue with warm soapy
water. Follow up with a rinse and thorough drying.
Additionally, for stainless steel parts only, you may
want to apply a stainless steel polish cleaner weekly to
prevent surface rust.
