SPIDER ALERT!

SPIDER AND WEBS
INSIDE BURNER

If your barbeque is getting hard to light or the flame is weak, check and clean the venturis and burners.

Spiders or small insects are known to create “flashback” problems by building nests and laying eggs in the barbeque’s venturi or burner obstructing the flow of gas. The backed-up gas can ignite behind the control panel. This flashback can damage your barbeque and cause injury. To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance, the burner and venturi tube assembly should be removed and cleaned whenever the barbeque has been idle for an extended period of time.

Cleaning the Burner Assembly

Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting barbecue.

1. Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder.
2. Remove cooking grates and heat tents.
3. Remove carryover tubes and hardware securing burners.
4. Detach electrode from burner.
NOTE: Removal/Detachment method will depend on the burner configuration. See different configurations in illustrations below.
5. 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 light weight 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). 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 each hole.
6. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.
7. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.
8. Check burner for damage due to normal wear and corrosion, some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found, replace burner.

VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must reengage valve openings. See illustrations at right.

Correct burner-to- valve engagement

9. Attach electrode to burner.
10. Carefully replace burners.
11. Attach burners to brackets on firebox.
12. Reposition carryover tubes and attach to burners. Replace heat tents and cooking grates.
13. Before cooking again on barbecue, perform a “Leak Test” and “Burner Flame Check”.

1. Firebox
2. Carryover tube
3. Firebox Burner Support
4. Electrode
5. Pry off electrode with a flate blade screwdriver

Storing Your Appliance

Clean cooking grates.
Store in dry location.
When gas cylinder is connected to appliance, store outdoors in a well- ventilated space and out of reach of children.
Cover appliance if stored outdoors.
Store appliance indoors ONLY if gas cylinder is turned off and disconnected, removed from appliance and stored outdoors.
When removing appliance from storage check for burner obstructions.

General Appliance Cleaning
Periodic cleaning of this grill is necessary, as grill fires can occur when grease and food debris collect in the bottom of the grill.
After each use, remove any remaining food particles from the cooking grate and inside of the grill using a Char-Broil Cool-Clean Brush. Afterwards you could spray Char-Broil Grate Cleaner generously onto the grate, allow it work for 10 minutes and wipe off with a wet cloth or brush. Perform grill cleaning after the grill has cooled down.

• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and smoke for paint. Interiors of gas barbecues are not painted at the factory (and should never be painted). Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or use a appliance cleaner with scrub brush on insides of appliance lid and bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply caustic appliance/oven cleaner to painted surfaces.

• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.
  Do not use abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated appliance cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.

• Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution, glass cleaner or Char-Broil Grate Cleaner. Use nonabrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.

• Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or cleaner and warm soapy water or Char-Broil Grill Cleaner. Wipe dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth.

• Cooking surfaces: Ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. While grill is hot, it is only recommended to clean cooking surfaces using the Char-Broil Hot-Clean Replacement head (on the Char-Broil Cool-Clean Premium Brush).

CLEAN Setting

Your grill is equipped with an innovative CLEAN setting that allows for hassle-free grill cleaning. The high heat generated from the burners will turn all remaining food debris to ash.
Follow these steps:

• After you are done grilling, adjust all main burners to CLEAN setting and remain for approximately 12 – 15 minutes
• After approximately 12 – 15 minutes, adjust all main burners to OFF setting and allow grill to cool
• Once the grill is cool, use a Char-Broil Cool-Clean Brush to remove any remaining debris and dispose of the ash
• To get extra-shiny results, use the Char-Broil Grate Cleaner as a last step. Spray generously onto the grate, allow it work for 10 minutes and wipe off with a wet cloth or brush.

IMPORTANT!    PLEASE READ!

CH Gas Cylinder + CH Regulator

Foreign Gas Cylinder + Foreign Regulator

CH Gas Cylinder + Foreign Regulator

Foreign Gas Cylinder + CH Regulator

A regulator must be used with this appliance. Use only the gas regulator supplied with your barbeque. If a regulator is not supplied then use only a regulator certified according to EN16129 (Flow rate max. 1.5 kg/h) and approved for your country and gas specified in Technical Data.

For Switzerland Only

There is a danger of fire and explosion with gas appliances which are equipped with foreign pressure regulators and are not compatible with the gas tanks and gas regulators available in Switzerland

Due to the different sealing systems, it is impossible to properly seal the regulator to the gas tank. Gas will escape here and can be ignited by flame or sparks. A lifethreatening explosion, and/or property damage can result. Swiss and German tanks and regulators cannot be intermixed.

For safety reason, please check your grill regulator and gas tank connection and make sure it follows in one of the allowed cases shown in the pictures.

Perform a leak check each time you connect your grill to the gas tank.

Stainless steel

There are many different types (alloys) of materials that are regarded as stainless steel.

A common trait of these different types is that they may corrode (oxidize), depending on the conditions they are subjected to.

This applies to your new barbecue as well.

To ensure your barbecue retains its looks and functionality for many years, please follow the advice below.

1. If the barbecue has become wet or damp, make sure to wipe it dry using a cloth in order to prevent surface corrosion.

2. Stainless steel can rust under certain conditions. This can be caused by environmental conditions such as chlorine or salt water, or improper cleaning tools such as wire or steel wool. It can also discolor due to heat, chemicals, or grease build-up.

3. To maintain your appliance’s high quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. 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 abrasive pad on areas with graphics.

4. Grease the internal parts of the barbecue and the grids with cooking oil.

Please note:
To avoid scratching the surface and providing a basis for rust, never use steel wool or similar when cleaning stainless steel.

When cleaning, work in the same direction the stainless steel was brushed in – ‘with the grain’.

Cleaning with abrasives may leave scratches.

Storing the barbecue near a coast, swimming pool or spa will cause the barbecue to corrode (oxidize).

Cover your barbecue for rust protection.
