ANNUAL CLEANING OF GRILL HOUSING

Burn-off the barbecue after every cookout will keep it ready for instant use, however, once a year you should

give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to keep it in top operating condition.

1. Shut off gas supply at source and disconnects fuel line. Protect fuel line fitting.

2. Remove and clean the cooking grids, heat control grids and burners.

3. Remove warming rack and wash with mild detergent and warm water.

4. Cover the gas valve orifices with a piece of aluminum foil.

5. Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a stiff wire brush, and wash down with a mild soap and warm

water solution. Wash thoroughly and let dry.

6. Remove aluminum foil from orifices and check orifices for obstruction.

7. Check electrode.

8. Reinstall heat control grids, cooking grids, and warming rack.

9. Reconnect to gas source and observe burner flame for correct operation.

IMPORTANT: You should NOT line the bottom of the grill housing with aluminum foil, sand or any other grease

absorbent substance. Grease will not be able to drip into the drip tray and a grease fire may occur.
