Stainless In Harsh Environments - Napoleon ROGUE Serie El Manual Del Propietario

tainleSS in harSh environmentS
Stainless steel oxidizes or stains in the presence of chlorides and
sulfides, especially in coastal regions, warm and highly humid areas,
and around pools and hot tubs. These stains look like rust, but they
can be easily removed or prevented. Wash stainless and chrome
surfaces every 3-4 weeks.
Burner maintenance
• Extreme heat and a corrosive environment can cause surface
corrosion to occur even though the burner is made from heavy wall
304 stainless steel.
Maintenance and protection of infrared burners
Your infrared burners are designed to provide a long service life, but
you must be careful to prevent cracking of their ceramic surfaces
Fractures will cause the burners to malfunction.
!
IMPORTANT! Damage caused by failure to follow these
instructions is NOT covered by your grill warranty.
Steps to avoid damaging ceramic surfaces
1. Never douse a flame or control flare-ups with water.
2. Do not allow cold water (rain, sprinkler, hose etc.) to come in
contact with hot ceramic burners. An immediate change in
temperature will cause cracking of the ceramic tile.
3. A ceramic burner that becomes wet before use will create steam
when operated later and produce pressure that will crack the
ceramic.
4. Repeated soaking of the ceramic can cause it to swell and expand
producing pressure that will make the ceramic crack and crumble.
5. Inspect the ceramic for possible water soaking if you find standing
water in the grill. Remove the burner if the ceramic is wet. Turn it
upside down to drain the excess water. Bring ceramic indoors to
dry thoroughly.
6. Do not allow hard objects to impact the burner. Take care when
inserting or removing cooking grids and using accessories.
Impaired ventilation of hot air from the grill
• Hot air must have a way to escape the grill for the burners to
function properly.
• The burners can become deprived of oxygen if the hot air is not
allowed to escape causing them to back-flash. The ceramic can
crack if this occurs repeatedly.
Hose Maintenance
• Inspect the hose before each use. Do not use the hose if there is
evidence of excessive abrasions, melting or cuts.
• If the hose is damaged, replace it with a regulator and hose
assembly specifically recommended by Napoleon.
WARNING! Turn off gas at the source and disconnect the unit before servicing.
WARNING! Maintenance should only be done when the grill is cool to avoid the possibility of burns.
WARNING! A leak test must be performed annually and when any component of the gas train is replaced, or
when the smell of gas is present.
