Turning Grill Off
• Turn all knobs to OFF position. Turn LP tank off by turning
OPD hand wheel clockwise to a full stop.
Ignitor Check
• Turn gas off at LP tank. Press and hold ignitor button. "Click"
should be heard and spark seen each time between collector
box or burner and electrodes. See "Troubleshooting" if no click
or spark.
Valve Check
• Important: Make sure gas is off at LP tank before checking
valves. Knobs lock in OFF position. To check valves, first
push in knobs and release, knobs should spring back. If knobs
do not spring back, replace valve assembly before using grill.
Turn knobs to LO position then turn back to OFF position.
Valves should turn smoothly.
General Grill Cleaning
• Keep the outside of your grill looking new by cleaning it once a
month with warm soap and water or a non-abrasive cleaner. If
you don't have a grill cover, wipe off dust and grime before
starting your grill.
• Coating the cooking grids with spray-on cooking oil will keep the
food from sticking and make clean up easier. After cooking,
scrape the grates with a long handled, brass wire bristle brush.
• Check inside the grill bottom for grease build up and clean
often, especially after cooking fatty meat.
• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and
smoke for paint. Apply a strong solution of detergent and water
or use a grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and
bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply a
caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted surfaces.
• Plated wire grates: Wash grates with concentrated grill
cleaner or use soap and water solution. Dry thoroughly and
store indoors between cookouts.
• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.
s Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a
concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and
failure of parts can result.
• Porcelain grates: Because of glass-like composition, most
residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or
specially formulated cleaner. Use non-abrasive scouring
powder for stubborn stains.
CAUTION
SPIDER ALERT!
SPIDER AND WEBS
INSIDE BURNER TUBE
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 burner's.
VALVE
CONTROL PANEL
In some areas of the country, spiders or small insects have been
known to create "flashback" problems. The spiders spin webs, build
nests and lay eggs in the grill's burner tube(s) obstructing the flow of
gas to the burner. The backed-up gas can ignite in the tube 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
assembly should be removed from the grill and cleaned before use
whenever the grill has been idle for an extended period.
