Drip Pan: Accumulated grease is a fire hazard. Clean the drip pan frequently to avoid grease buildup.
Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located beneath the gas grill and accumulate.
To clean, slide the drip pan free of the grill. Never line the drip pan with aluminum foil, sand or any other
material as this could prevent the grease from flowing properly. The pan should be scraped out with a
putty knife or scraper.
!
CAUTION!
Ensure drip pan is empty and clean before transporting grill in vertical position.
Cleaning The Outer Grill Surface: Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on any painted, porcelain or
stainless steel parts of your Napoleon Grill. Doing so will scratch the finish. Exterior grill surfaces should be
cleaned with warm soapy water while the metal is still warm to the touch. To clean stainless surfaces, use
a stainless steel or a non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Over time, stainless
steel parts discolor when heated, usually to a golden or brown hue. This discoloration is normal and does
not affect the performance of the grill. Porcelain enamel components must be handled with additional
care. The baked-on enamel finish is glass-like, and will chip if struck. Touch-up enamel is available from
your Napoleon Grill dealer.
Maintenance Instructions
We recommend this gas grill be thoroughly inspected and serviced annually by a qualified service person.
At all times keep the gas grill area free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors
and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of ventilation and combustion air.
WARNING!
Always wear protective gloves and safety glasses when cleaning your grill.
WARNING!
!
Turn off the gas at the source and disconnect the unit before servicing. To avoid the
possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the grill is cool. A leak test must be
performed annually and whenever any component of the gas train is replaced or gas smell is present.

Combustion Air Adjustment: (This must be done by a qualified gas installer.) The air shutter is factory set
and should not need adjusting under normal conditions. Under extreme field conditions, adjustments
might be required. When the air shutter is adjusted correctly the flames will be dark blue, tipped with
light blue and occasionally yellow.
•
With too little air flow to the burner, the flames are lazy yellow and can produce soot.
•
With too much air flow, the flames lift erratically and can cause difficulties when lighting.
Adjusting the air shutter:
1. Loosen air-shutter lock screw, located under the control panel, and open or close air shutter as
required. The normal setting for the tube burner is 1/16" (1.5mm).
2. Light burner and set to high. Visually inspect burner flames. When shutters are set, turn burner off,
tighten locking screw. Be sure the air shutter does not move when tightening the screw.
Burner: The burner is made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive
environment can cause surface corrosion to occur. This can be removed with a brass wire brush.
CAUTION!
Beware of Spiders.
Spiders and insects are attracted to the smell of propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an
insect screen on the air shutter, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner
but does not entirely eliminate the problem. A nest or web can cause the burner to burn with a soft yellow
