Cleaning and Maintenance

Your new appliance has been designed and manufactured to high quality standards. It will provide you with many years of fun cooking time, however, it requires a minimal amount of maintenance.

NOTE: Clean the entire appliance regularly and tighten all hardware on a regular basis (1-2 times a year or more depending on usage). Cleaning should be done using detergents that won’t harm the patio, lawn, or the environment.

WARNING

1. Do not clean any part of your grill in a self-cleaning oven.
2. Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive kitchen cleaners, cleaners that contain citrus products, or mineral spirits.
3. Always allow the grill to cool down prior to cleaning.

STEPS FOR CLEANING THE BURNER

1. Remove the regulator hose from the burner.
2. Look inside the burner tube for insect nests, webs, or mud.
3. To remove the above obstructions, use a flexible venturi brush or bend a small hook on one end of a long flexible wire such as the one shown in the inset picture.
4. Inspect and clean the burner if needed.
5. Reattach the brass connector to the burner.

TIPS FOR POLISHING ALUMINUM POTS

1. It is recommended to season the pot before use. Pour a small amount of vegetable oil inside and spread it with a paper towel until the entire bottom and sides are coated. Let it stand for 10 minutes. Wash out the interior of the pot, it will be ready to use. DO NOT apply to flame during any of this process.
2. After cooking, let pots and lids cool down gradually. Do not pour cold water into a hot pot. This will cause the bottom of the pot to warp. Always wash the pots thoroughly in warm, soapy detergent after each use to remove all traces of food, salt, or grease particles that may burn and cause stains when the pan is reheated.
3. Seasoning the pots will make cleaning easier. Scouring pads and aluminum cleaners can be used to clean the interior of the pots but will scratch the exterior.
4. Polished aluminum pots will tarnish and discolor with normal use.
5. Boiling with large quantities of salt is very corrosive and can cause pits in the pot and basket. To reduce the chance of this occurring, do not allow salt water to remain in the pot for a long period of time after the pot has cooled. The basket and pot should be thoroughly cleaned after each use.

WARNING

1. Proper placement of the burner and valve is vital to ensure safety.
2. Do not use any strong or grinding solvents or abrasive pads, as they can damage surfaces and leave behind scratch marks.

STORAGE

1. Clean your appliance before storage. Store at a cool dry place.
2. Storage of your appliance indoors is permissible only if the LP cylinder is disconnected and removed from the appliance.
3. A cover is highly recommended to protect your appliance. Choose from a variety of appliance covers offered by the manufacturers.
4. Perform a Leak Test before using the appliance after it has been kept in storage for some time.

Troubleshooting Guide

Q: Why doesn’t the burner light?
A: Different solutions for different causes.

1. Out of LP Gas.
   Refill LP Gas Cylinder.

2. Ignitor issue.
   Try manually lighting burner with a match. If burner lights successfully, it is an ignitor issue.

3. Ignitor battery is dead.
   Replace battery.

4. Battery/ignitor cap not installed correctly.
   Make sure 2 ends of the battery are oriented properly. The “+” end should be toward the ignitor cap. Rescrew the ignitor cap and make sure threads are aligned fully.

Q: The burner flame appears very weak.
A: If the hose assembly has a Type1 Connection (black/green knob), it is equipped with a flow limiting device.
This device is intended to limit the flow of gas should there be a leak between the regulator and the appliance.
To achieve a positive gas seal, which will allow for maximum gas flow, the regulator control must be turned to a completely OFF position before the cylinder valve is opened. A good tip to remember is “Cylinder is first ON, last OFF”.

The Problem Can be Remedied in Two Ways:

1. Turn regulator valve OFF (counterclockwise). Close the cylinder valve completely by turning it clockwise until it stops.
2. Check that the Type1 Connection (black knob) is completely tightened to the cylinder valve.
3. Wait 5 seconds for the pressure to equalize and for the flow limiting device to reset.
4. Turn cylinder valve ON (counterclockwise).
5. Turn regulator valve ON (clockwise).
6. Relight boiler following all lighting instructions contained in this Owner’s Manual. Check for proper flame.

OR

1. Turn regulator valve OFF (counterclockwise). Close the cylinder valve completely by turning clockwise until it stops.
2. Remove Type 1 Connection (black/green knob) from the cylinder valve. The flow limiting device will now reset.
3. Re-attach Type 1 Connection (black/green knob) to the cylinder valve. Tighten completely.
4. Turn the cylinder valve ON (counterclockwise).
5. Turn regulator valve ON (clockwise).
6. Relight burner following all lighting instructions contained in this Owner’s Manual. Check for proper flame.

Q: How long will the gas in my cylinder last?
A: On average, a full cylinder will give you 4 to 5 hours of normal cooking.

Q: Flame has gone out.
A: Different solutions for different causes.

1. Low gas level in the LP cylinder, or the cylinder is empty.
   Check the gas level in the LP cylinder.

2. Too much wind
   Check wind direction and set the cooker away from windy areas.

3. Blocked burner
   Clean and check burner for spiders, insect nests, and debris.

4. Water in burner
   Check the burner for moisture, make sure the burner is dry.

If your problem is not resolved using the troubleshooting information above, please contact your local gas dealer.
