Question: What causes grill parts to rust and what effect does it have on the grill materials?
Answer:
Rusting is a natural oxidation process and may appear on cast-iron and steel parts. Rust will not
affect the short-term
performance
of your grill. However, weathering
and extreme
heat can cause a stainless
steel lid to turn a bronze color. This is discoloration,
not rust, and is not considered
a manufacturing
defect.
Question: What causes my stainless
steel grill lid to discolor and how do I clean my grill lid?
Answer:
Smoke, weathering
and high heat can cause a stainless steel grill lid to turn bronze in color. This is
not to be confused
with rust and is not a product defect. Machine oils used in the manufacturing
process of
stainless steel as well as cooking oils and a dirty grill lid can also encourage
discoloration
if the lid is not
cleaned prior to grill use. After your grill is assembled,
remove the protective
PVC film from your grill lid and
use a stainless steel cleaner and soft cloth to remove residual adhesive and oils from the inside and outside of
your grill lid. Never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers.
In addition to the initial cleaning,
routine cleaning
to
remove dirt, grease and oils will help discourage
lid discoloration.
Question:
Can I convert my grill from propane gas to natural gas?
Answer:
Most gas grills are manufactured
to exact specifications
and are certified for either propane gas or
natural gas use only. However, some models can be converted
safely with conversion
kits available for specific
models. Contact Brinkmann
Customer
Service at 800-527-0717
to see if your grill can be converted.
Question:
Why does the hose / regulator
assembly
supplied
with my grill not fit the older
LP gas tank rye
used for years?
Answer:
U.S. Government
regulates gas appliances
and LP gas tanks. When regulations
were changed, the
LP gas tank fittings were updated to ensure compliance.
If your LP gas tank does not fit the hose / regulator
supplied
with your new grill, the tank is outdated and must be replaced. Note: Effective April 1,2002,
all LP gas
tanks sold must include an "OPD" overflow protection
device. This internal device prevents the LP gas tank
from being overfilled.
Tanks without an OPD valve cannot be refilled.
Question:
Sometimes
I hear a humming
sound coming from my gas regulator. Should
I be concerned?
Answer:
The humming
sound is gas flowing through the regulator. A low volume of noise is normal and will not
interfere with the operation
of your grill. If the humming noise is loud and excessive,
you need to purge air from
the gas line or reset the regulator flow limiting device following
the Regulator
Resetting Procedure
under
Connecting
LP Cylinder and Hose/Regulator
to Grill. This procedure
should be done every time a new LP gas
tank is connected
to your grill. For help, refer to your owner's manual or call Brinkmann
Customer Service at
800-527-0717.
