Use & Care Manual

Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a grill. This adds to the unique flavor of

cooking on a gas grill. Excessive flare-ups resulting from the build-up of grease in the bottom of the grill can

over-cook the food and cause a dangerous situation for you and your grill. If this should occur, DO NOT pour

water onto the flames, which can cause the grease to splatter and could result in serious burns or bodily harm.

If grease fire occurs, close the hood and turn off the main burners until the grease burns out. Use caution when

opening the hood as sudden flare-ups may occur.

To Minimize Flare-ups:

• Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking.

• Cook meats with high fat contents (chicken or pork) on Low settings or indirectly.

• Ensure that your grill is on level ground and the grease is allowed to evacuate the grill through the drain

hole.

DRIP TRAY

The drip tray located below the grill should be cleaned periodically to prevent buildup of debris.

NOTE: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean.

IMPORTANT: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered (cover sold

separately). Rain water can collect inside the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered. If the drip tray is

not cleaned after use and the grill is left uncovered, the drip tray will fill with water causing grease and water to

spill into the grill cart. We recommend cleaning and storing the drip tray after every use.

COOKING GRATES

The cooking grates can be cleaned immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the grill. But,

exercise extreme caution because the grates will be very hot if you clean them immediately after cooking. Wear

a barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates with a damp cloth. If the grill is allowed to cool down, cleaning the

grates will be easier if removed from the grill and cleaned with a mild detergent.

FLAVORIZERS

Washing the flavorizers after every use is not necessary but periodically it is suggested you wash them in a soap

and warm water solution. Do not clean the flavorizers immediately after use of the grill. Allow flavorizers to cool.

Use a wire brush to remove stubborn burned on cooking residue. Dry the flavorizers & flame dividers thoroughly

before you reinstall them in the cooking insert.

Care & Maintenance

All cleaning and maintenance should be done only when grill is cool & with the fuel supply turned

off at the cylinder or source.
