LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
1. Disconnect the power to your grill before any service or light bulb replacement. Be sure the grill and the
lights are completely cool. Halogen lights get extremely hot.
2. Open hood and remove the small screw holding the lamp assembly in place (Fig. 10). Remove the lamp
assembly, being careful not to drop the glass lens.
3. If needed, use a small flat-blade screwdriver to carefully pry off the lens and set aside. Loosen the 2
screws closest to the lamp housing (Fig. 11). These screws hold the bulb in place. The bulb should come
out easily. The bulb is a 20W halogen “Bi-Pin” type, available at most hardware stores & home centers.
4. Before installation, it is very important to clean the new bulb carefully with a clean, soft cloth, or tissue
paper. Grease, fingerprints, or oils in your skin can leave a residue on the glass surface of the bulb which
will create a hot-spot. The bulb will eventually crack at this hot-spot.
5. While still using a cloth or tissue paper, install the new bulb in the housing and tighten the screws.
Check that the other tiny screws are tight as well.
6. Re-install the lens and return the lamp assembly to the hood. Carefully install the screw to secure the
assembly to the grill.
ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
Always keep the area around the grill free of obstructions and debris. Maintain at least 12” (30 cm) of
space around the grill to ensure proper airflow, and keep all ventilation openings clear and free of debris.
Clean the appliance after each use, and check for blockages, especially at the burner orifices, after periods
of prolonged non-use. To maintain the appearance of your Aspire grill for many years, keep it covered
when not in use. Backyard environments are harsh on your grills’ finish. Long exposure to sun, water, yard
chemicals and the elements could diminish the appearance of the stainless steel. This is very evident in
ocean-front locations.
Our appliance materials have been tested in saline solutions with higher salinity than seawater. They
have also been tested by exposure to highly acidic foods. During and after these tests, we found these
materials were able to withstand exposure over prolonged periods of time. However, the above-mentioned
corrosive substances, along with neglect, can lead to a situation whereby conditions might combine to
cause some damage to occur. Therefore, we suggest that you always keep your grill clean, dry and covered
when not in use. This is even more important when long term storage is required. Always store the grill
clean, dry and covered with your Aspire grill cover. A dirty grill will attract insects and rodents which is
highly unsanitary. In addition, rodents are known to chew on the insulation of wiring which will cause
permanent damage to the wiring and possibly electrical components.
For those in desert communities, wind-driven sand is highly abrasive and constant exposure will eventually
pit and scratch the surface. Another reason to keep your grill covered when not in use.
