• Painted surfaces: Wash with a mild detergent or
nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry
with a soft nonabrasive cloth.
• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill's high-
quality appearance, wash with a mild detergent and
warm soapy water. Then wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Baked-on grease deposits may require the use of an
abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in direction of
brushed finish to avoid damage. Do not use the abrasive
pad on areas with graphics.
• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of
the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain
on the cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not
recommended to clean the cooking surfaces while the
grill is hot.
• Drip Tray and Cup: When the grill has completely
cooled down after use, remove the drip tray and drip
cup for cleaning.
CAUTION
SPIDER ALERT!
IMPORTANT: Always ensure that the venturi burner
tubes are clean. A venturi burner tube has a narrow area
in which spiders tend to build nests.
If you notice that your grill is getting hard to light or that
the flame isn't as strong as it should be, take the time to
check and clean the venturi's.
Spiders or small insects have been known to create
"flashback" problems. The spiders spin webs, build nests
and lay eggs in the grill's venturi tube(s), obstructing the
flow of gas to the burner. The backed-up gas can ignite in
the venturi behind the control panel. This is known as a
flashback, and it can damage your grill and even cause
injury.
To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the
burner and venturi assembly should be removed from the
grill and cleaned before use whenever the grill has been
idle for an extended period.

Storing Your Grill
• Clean the cooking grates.
• Store in dry location.
• When the LP tank is connected to the grill, store outdoors in a
well-ventilated space and out of reach from children.
• Cover the grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of
grill covers offered by the manufacturer. Available at
Kenmoregrill.com.
• Store the grill indoors ONLY if the LP tank is turned off and
disconnected. Remove the LP tank from the grill and store the
cylinder outdoors.
• When removing the grill from storage, follow the "Cleaning
the Burner Assembly" instructions before starting the grill.
Cleaning the Burner Assembly
Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of the
burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting the grill.
1.
Turn the gas OFF by turning the control knobs to the off setting
and close the valve of the LP tank.
2. Remove the cooking grates and heat diffusers.
3. Remove the attachment cotter pin from the rear of each
burner. See Fig A on page 11.
4. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one
easiest for you.
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a lightweight coat hanger works well)
into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner tube
several times.
(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not
use a brass wire brush) and run the brush through each
burner tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into
the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each
port to make sure air comes out of each hole.
5. Use a wire brush to scrub the entire outer surface of the
burner to remove food residue and dirt.
6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open
paper clip.
7. Check the burner for damage. Due to normal wear and
corrosion, some holes may become enlarged. If there are any
large cracks or holes found on the burner, please replace
them.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must re-engage the
valve openings. See illustrations below.
8. Carefully replace the burners. See Fig. A and B on page 11.
9. Attach the rear of each burner to the bracket and reconnect
the cotter pin. See Fig. A on page 11.
10. Replace the heat diffusers and cooking grates.
