Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning the Inside of the Grill
Over time, the performance of your grill can
diminish if it has not been maintained properly.
Low temperatures, uneven heat, and food sticking
to cooking grates are all signs that cleaning and
maintenance are overdue. When your grill is off and
cool, start by cleaning the inside, from the top down.
A thorough cleaning is recommended at least twice a
year. Consistent use may require quarterly cleanings.
Cleaning the Lid
From time to time you may notice "paint-like" flakes
on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke
vapors slowly change into carbon and deposit on the
inside of your lid. These deposits will eventually peel,
and looks very similar to paint. These deposits are
non-toxic, but the flakes could fall onto your food if you
do not clean the lid regularly.
1) Brush the carbonized grease from the inside of the
lid with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (A). To
minimize further build-up, the inside of the lid can
be wiped with a paper towel after grilling while the
grill is still warm (not hot).
Cleaning the Cooking Grates
If you have been cleaning your cooking grates as
recommended, the debris on your grates should be
minimal.
1) With grates installed, brush the debris off your
cooking grate with a stainless steel bristle grill
brush (B).
2) Take the grates out and set aside.
Cleaning the FLAVORIZER BARS
FLAVORIZER BARS catch drippings that smoke and
sizzle, adding flavor to your food. Any drippings that
are not vaporized by the FLAVORIZER BARS are
funneled away from the burners. This helps prevent
flare-ups inside of your grill, and protects the burners
from getting clogged.
1) Scrape the FLAVORIZER BARS with a plastic
scraper (C).
2) If necessary, brush the FLAVORIZER BARS with a
stainless steel bristle grill brush.
3) Remove FLAVORIZER BARS and set aside.
Cleaning the Burners
Two areas on the burners that are key to optimum
performance are the ports (small raised openings
running along the length of the burners) and the
spider/insect screens on the ends of the burner.
Keeping these areas clean is essential for safe
operation.
Cleaning the Burner Ports
1) Use a clean stainless steel bristle grill brush to
clean the outside of the burners by brushing across
the top of the burner ports (D).
2) When cleaning the burners, avoid damaging the
ignition electrode by carefully brushing around
it (E).
Cleaning the Spider Screens
1) Locate the ends of the burners on the underside of
the control panel where they meet the valves.
2) Clean the spider/insect screens on each of the
burners using a soft bristle brush (F).
