Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner assembly or if you
have trouble igniting plancha.
1 . Turn gas off at control knobs and remove LP cylinder.
2 . Remove plancha plate.
3 . Remove hardware securing burners.
4 . Detach electrode from burner.
5 . Detach flame sensor from burner.
6 . Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one easiest for you.
•
Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well) into a small
hook. Run the hook through each burner tube several times.
•
Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not use a brass wire
brush). Run the brush through each burner tube several times.
•
Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into the burner tube
and out the burner ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out
each hole.
7 . Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.
8 . Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.
9 . Check burner for damage due to normal wear and corrosion, some holes may
become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found, replace burner.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must re-engage valve openings. See illus-
tration below.

The Grease Cup has a capacity of 475 ml and should be
emptied after each cook session. Depending on the foods
you are cooking, this grease cup can fill up quickly. Care
should be taken when emptying the cup, it is preferred
to empty the grease once it is cooled down, as both the
grease cup and the grease will be very hot during and
immediately following your cook session. If you find that
the grease cup is getting full mid-cooking, you should use
a heat proof glove to carefully remove and empty the cup.
The grease cup can be washed with warm, soapy water
but should not go into the dishwasher.
