If the inside surface of the barbecue lid has the appearance of pealing paint, it means that
baked-on grease build-up has turned to carbon and is flaking off. Clean thoroughly with a
strong hot soapy water solution. Rinse with water and allow to completely dry. NEVER USE
OVEN CLEANER
INTERIOR OF BARBECUE BOTTOM
Remove residue using brush, scraper, and/or cleaning pad and then wash with a soapy water
solution. Rinse with water and allow to dry.
PLASTIC SURFACES
Wash with a soft cloth and a hot soapy water solution. Rinse with water. Do not use abrasive
cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated barbecue cleaner on plastic parts.
COOKING GRID
Use a mild soapy water solution. Non-abrasive scouring powder can be used on stubborn
stains, then rinsed with water.
CLEANING THE BURNER ASSEMBLY
Turn the gas “OFF” at the control knob and disconnect the cylinder.
Remove cooking grate.
Clean the burner with a soft brush, or blow clean with compressed air, and then wipe with a
cloth.
Clean any clogged ports with a pipe cleaner or stiff wire (such as an opened paper clip).
Inspect burner for any damages (cracks or holes). If any damages are found, replace with a
new burner. Reinstall the burner and check to ensure that the gas valve orifices are correctly
positioned and secured inside the burner inlet (venturi).
In some cases your barbecue will cause a flashback because of an insect crawling inside the
venturi burner or a spider spinning its web inside the burner. This can be rectified by using a
bottle brush inserted through the venturi burner and pushing it into the burner over the burner
length. If the condition persists, consult your gas dealer.
SERVICING
Your gas barbecue should be serviced annually by a competent registered person.
