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
grills are all signs that cleaning and maintenance are
overdue.
A thorough cleaning is recommended when the
barbecue is going to be folded and stored vertically,
or at least twice a year. Consistent use may require
quarterly cleanings. When your barbecue is o and cool,
start by cleaning the inside, from the top down.
Cleaning the Lid
From time to time you may notice “paint-like” flakes
on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke
vapors slowly change into carbon and deposit on the
inside of your lid. These deposits will eventually peel,
and looks 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) Brush the carbonized grease from the inside of the
lid with a stainless steel bristle barbecue brush (A).
To minimize further build-up, the inside of the lid can
be wiped with a paper towel after barbecuing while
the barbecue is still warm (nothot).
Cleaning the Cooking Grills
If you have been cleaning your cooking grills as
recommended, the debris on your grills should be
minimal.
1) With grills installed, brush the debris o your
cooking grills with a stainless steel bristle barbecue
brush(B).
2) Take the grills out and set aside.
Cleaning the Burner
Two areas on the burner that are key to optimum
performance are the ports (small openings running
along the length of the burner) and the spider/insect
screens on the ends of the burner. Keeping these areas
clean is essential for safe operation.
Cleaning the Burner Ports
1) Use a clean stainless steel bristle barbecue brush
to clean the outside of the burners by brushing
across the top of the burner ports (C). Do not brush
lengthwise.along the tube, as this will only brush
debris from one port to another.
2) When cleaning the burner, avoid damaging the
ignition electrode by carefully brushing around it.
Cleaning the Spider Screens
1) Locate the end of the burner behind the control panel
where it meets the valve (D).
2) Clean the spider/insect screen on the burner using a
soft bristle brush (E).
