a dishwasher�
WARNING
Please ensure that your appliance is switched
off and has cooled down before following the

Cleaning of Stainless Steel surfaces
WARNING
CAUTION
Do not use abrasive or caustic cleaners, scourers or metal
scrapers on these stainless steel surfaces as they may
permanently scratch and damage your barbecue. Take
particular care around the control knob graphics and
instructions.
• Wash all stainless steel components, including the
slimline lid and control knob cap with a soft dishcloth
using hot soapy water�
• The interior can be wiped down with a soft cloth in hot
soapy water�
• Ensure that all surfaces are dried with a clean
dry cloth�
WARNING
CAUTION
Take extra care (particularly when cleaning on and around
the control knob) to ensure that water and soapy residue
do not enter the control panel, where the valve is located or
into the burner.
Trivet and reversible grill plate
The trivet can be removed for cleaning� Clean by washing in
warm soapy water� Take care when replacing the trivets as
dropping them may damage the enamelled surfaces�
Burner
The burner ports should be checked for blockages and
cleared as required� The brass top of burner will become
discoloured with use, this is normal�
Maintenance
IMPORTANT
Special note on “tea staining”
Sometimes stainless steel surfaces are affected by a brown
discolouration called tea staining� This usually occurs in
areas which use high heat and can be easily removed using
specialised stainless steel cleaners� For best results, we
recommend that specialised cleaners be used regularly on
all stainless steel components�
Burners
Burners should be checked at least once per year and
cleaned as necessary� Inspect burners to ensure no residues
have been deposited and gas ports are clear�
NOTE: Environmental conditions need to be taken into
account with regards to the maintenance required on your
product� In particular units installed in humid climates
or seaside locations will be more susceptible to surface
corrosion/discolouration over time� In these conditions
BeefEater strongly recommends cleaning and drying your
barbecue after every use and covering it when not in use to
minimise exposure to the elements� Surface corrosion can
be removed by using a specialized stainless steel cleaner�
