Tube Burner: The burners are made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive
environment can cause surface corrosion to occur. This can be removed with a brass wire brush.

Spiders and insects are aracted to the smell of propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an
insect screen on the air shuer, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner but
does not enrely eliminate the problem. A nest or web can cause the burner to burn with a so yellow or
orange ame or cause a re (ashback) at the air shuer beneath the control panel. To clean the inside of
the burner, it must be removed from the gas grill: Remove the screw that aaches the burner to the back
wall. Slide the burner back and upwards to remove. Cleaning: Use a exible venturi tube brush to clean the
inside of the burner. Shake any loose debris from the burner through the gas inlet. Check the burner ports
and valve orices for blockages. Burner ports can close over me due to cooking debris and corrosion, use
an opened paperclip or the supplied port maintenance bit to clean them. Drill out blocked ports using this
drill bit in a small cordless drill. The ports are easier to clean if the burner is removed from the grill, but it can
also be done with the burner installed. Do not ex the drill bit when drilling the ports, as this will cause the
drill bit to break. This drill is for burner ports only, not for the brass orices (jets) which regulate the ow into
the burner. Take care not to enlarge the holes. Ensure the insect screen is clean, ght, and free of any lint or
other debris.
: Reverse the procedure to reinstall the burner. Check that the valve enters the burner when
installing.
: The grids and warming rack are best cleaned with a brass wire brush during the pre-
heang period. Steel wool can be used for stubborn stains. It is normal that stainless grids (if equipped) will
discolor permanently from regular usage due to the high temperature of the cooking surface.
Control Panel: The control panel text is printed directly on the stainless steel and with proper maintenance will
remain dark and legible. To clean the panel, use only warm soapy water or Connental brand stainless steel
cleaner available from your Napoleon dealer. Never apply abrasive cleaners on any stainless surfaces, espe-
cially the printed poron of the control panel or the prinng will gradually rub o.
Cleaning Inside The Gas Grill: Remove the cooking grids. Use a brass wire brush to clean loose debris from
the casng sides and underneath the lid. Scrape the sear plates with a puy knife or scraper, and use a wire
brush to remove the ash. Remove the sear plates and brush debris from the burners with the brass wire brush.
Sweep all debris from inside the gas grill into the drip pan.
Drip Pan: Accumulated grease is a re hazard. Clean the drip pan frequently (every 4 – 5 uses or as oen as
required) to avoid grease buildup. Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located beneath
the gas grill and accumulate in the disposable grease tray below the drip pan. To clean, slide the drip pan free
of the grill. Never line the drip pan with aluminum foil, sand or any other material as this could prevent the
grease from owing properly. The pan should be scraped out with a puy knife or scraper, and all the debris
brushed into the disposable grease tray. Replace this tray every 2 – 4 weeks, depending on gas grill usage. For
supplies, see your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer.

less steel parts of your Napoleon Grill. Doing so will scratch the nish. Exterior grill surfaces should be cleaned
with warm soapy water while the metal is sll warm to the touch. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless
steel or a non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direcon of the grain. Over me, stainless steel parts
discolor when heated, usually to a golden or brown hue. This discoloraon is normal and does not aect the
performance of the grill. Porcelain enamel components must be handled with addional care. The baked-on
enamel nish is glass-like, and will chip if struck. Touch-up enamel is available from your Napoleon Grill dealer.
