In Case of Grease Fire
Follow These Steps
1.
Shut off the gas at the control knob(s) and stay away!
2.
Allow the fire to burn itself out.
3.
Once the fire is out and the appliance has cooled, remove
the disposable cylinder.
4.
Clean all parts and inspect for damage. Parts to check for
damage are the L.P. cylinder, regulator, burner valve(s) and
burner(s).
5.
If any of the above mentioned components are damaged,
please call phone numbers listed in warranty.
Note:
• Some flare-up adds a smoky flavor and sears food. Excessive
grease fires can cause a potentially hazardous situation and
damage the grill.
• Avoid excessive flare-ups by preheating the grill with the lid
closed for 5 minutes on the high setting to burn off grease
from previous cooking.
• Cook with the lid down and continually monitor cooking food
to avoid grease fires and flare-ups.
• Trimming excess fat from meat will reduce grease fires and
flare-ups. Cook fatty meat in smaller amounts over indirect
heat on a low setting.
• Be sure to follow the instructions in the section titled "Care,
Maintenance, and Cleaning".
Cooking Methods
Direct method:
• The heat source is directly below the food.
• Use for browning meat or cooking hot dogs and hamburgers,
but check food frequently.
• Use for skillet and stir-fry cooking, but limit the amount of oil
and heat to be used.
• Cook roasts, turkey or duck on low heat. Place meat with water
in a foil pan with a corrugated bottom. Replenish water
as needed.
Indirect method:
• Light only one side of the burner and place food on the
opposite side for cooking.
• Allow food to cook at a lower temperature which increases
tenderness and reduces grease flare-ups.
• It is a good method for cooking foods that burn easily
(vegetables, fish, etc.).
• Cook casseroles in ovenware or foil pans much like cooking in
a conventional oven.
• Also try placing a pan of water above the lit burner side to help
meat retain its juices. Replenish the water as needed.
Care, Maintenance and Cleaning
NOTE TO PREVENT DAMAGE WHICH WILL VOID THE
WARRANTY:
• Do not use pots, pans, ovens, ect., on this cooking grate or
griddle surface.
• Do not stack a cooking grate and griddle together on the
same burner.
• Do not use this cooking grate or griddle on a campfire or other
open fire.
• Never leave the cooking grate or griddle over a lit burner
without foodstuffs longer than one minute (except for the
initial pre-heating period). Otherwise, the special coating will
be damaged.
• Use this cooking grate or griddle only on the Coleman® grill for
which it was designed.
COOKING GRATE AND GRIDDLE
The cooking grates and griddles can be cleaned immediately
after cooking is completed and after turning off the grill. Wear a
barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates and griddles with
a damp cloth. If the grill is allowed to cool down, cleaning the
grates and griddles will be easier if removed from the grill and
cleaned with a mild detergent.
All cleaning and maintenance should be done only when the
grill is cool & with the fuel supply turned off at the cylinder.
Disposable propane cylinders should be detached from the
grill during cleaning.
Suggested Cleaning Materials:
• Mild dishwashing liquid detergent • Hot water
• Wire brush • Paper clip • Nylon cleaning pad
• Soft brass-bristled brush • Putty knife • Scraper
Component Cleaning:
• BURNER: Wire-brush loose corrosion from the burner exterior.
Clean clogged gas port holes with an opened paper clip.
Replace corroded or damaged burner that would emit
excess gas.
• COOKING GRATE: Clean cooking grates with mild soap and hot
water. Remove stubborn residue with a mild cleanser or scrub
brush. DO NOT use a commercial oven cleaner.
• GRILL INTERIOR: Remove grates. Scrape side with tools and
remove excess grease and cooking residue.
Cleaning the Venturi
Spider's nests or wasp's mud inside the venturi may cause fire
at the valve. If a fire occurs, immediately turn off the gas supply
at the control valve (see representative illustration in Fig. 36).
