CLEANING THE ASH FROM INSIDE AND
AROUND THE FIREPOT:
WARNING!
Make sure that the grill is COLD
before cleaning the ash.
WARNING!
Disposal of ashes should be done
only according to the following instructions.
Excess ash in the firepot may cause your fire
to go out. The firepot should be inspected
occasionally and cleaned to remove the ash
buildup. Again, cleaning the ash from in and
around the firepot should be done only when
the grill is COLD.
Remove the grill grates, grease drip tray, and
upper and lower heat shields to provide access to
the firepot and the interior of the grill.
NOTE: The lower heat shield is preinstalled from
the factory and fits tightly in place. Some effort
will be needed to remove and reinstall the shield.
Much of the ash outside of the firepot can
be removed from the grill with a small metal
fireplace shovel or other similar tool.
WARNING!
A vacuum cleaner is the best way to
remove ashes from the firepot, but this must be
done with extreme care to avoid the risk of fire.
Again, cleaning the ash from the firepot should
be done only when the grill is COLD.
A utility-type vacuum cleaner having a metal
collection canister without a bag would be best
for this task. However, almost any vacuum
cleaner will work safely if this procedure is
properly followed.

After ensuring that the ash in the firepot is
COLD, vacuum the ash from the inside of
the firepot.
a. If your vacuum cleaner is a bagless
model, empty any previously accumulated
debris from the collection chamber. Then
vacuum the ash from the inside of the
firepot. Once the firepot is clean, empty the
collection chamber into the metal container
described below without delay. Make sure
that there is no remaining ash residue left
in the collection chamber.
b. If your vacuum cleaner is a model that
uses a disposable bag, install an unused
bag in the machine. Then vacuum the ash
from the inside of the firepot. Once the
firepot is clean, remove the bag from the
vacuum cleaner and place it in the metal
container described below without delay.

DISPOSAL OF ASHES:
WARNING!
Ashes should be placed in a
metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The
closed container of ashes should be placed on
a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well
away from all combustible materials, pending
final disposal. When the ashes are disposed of by
burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they
should be retained in the closed container until
all cinders have cooled thoroughly.

If the supply cord is damaged, It must be
replaced by a special cord assembly available
from the manufacturer or its service agent.
