Cleaning, care & maintenance
Warning!
• Regularly clean your barbecue between uses, especially after extended
periods of storage.
• Ensure the barbecue and its components are sufficiently cool before cleaning
and storage. Never douse the barbecue surfaces with water while still hot.
• To extend the life and maintain the condition of your barbecue, we strongly recommend that the unit
be covered when left outside for any length of time, especially during the winter months. Heavy-duty
barbecue covers and other accessories are available from your local stockist.
• Inspect the barbecue on a regular basis as damp or condensation can form which may result in
damage to the appliance. It may be necessary to dry the barbecue internally. It is possible for mould
to grow on any fat-gathering parts. This should be cleaned off with hot soapy water.
• A chrome cleaner may be used on chrome parts if required.
To prevent rusting, wipe chrome
parts with cooking oil after rinsing and drying.
• Any rust that does not come into contact with the food should be treated with a rust inhibitor and
painted with barbecue paint or a heat resistant paint. Any rust on cooking surface should burn off or
be rubbed off.
Griddle Body
• Regularly remove excess grease or fat using a cloth dampened with hot soapy water. Dry thoroughly.
• Excess fat and food debris can be removed from inside the body using a soft plastic or wooden
scraper.
• Do not immerse the body or hose in water.
Burners
• Burning off any residue after cooking will keep the burners clean.
• Periodically check the burner to ensure it is free from insects and spiders which may clog the gas
system, deflecting gas flow.
• Ensure to clean pipes on burner very carefully and make sure that there are no obstructions. We
recommend the use of a pipe cleaner to clean the pipe area.
Cooking surfaces and oil cup
• After cooling down, remove any fat or food particles with a plastic or wooden scraper. Do not use a
steel scraper or wire brush.
• Clean with hot soapy water. Rinse well and dry thoroughly.
• Do not use scouring pads or powders as they can permanently damage the finish. Due to the weight
of the parts, we do not recommend cleaning in a dishwasher.
• Failure to keep clean, and excessive buildup can result in a fat fire. This can be hazardous and
severely damage the barbecue. This is not a fault in the barbecue and is therefore not covered by the
warranty.
Storage
• Store in a cool dry place. If storing the gas griddle outdoors, ensure to check that all areas under the
front panel are free from any obstructions (insects, for example). This area must be kept free as this
may affect the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
• If storing the gas griddle indoors, the gas cylinder must be disconnected and left outside. The gas
cylinder should always be stored outside, in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from any sources of
heat or ignition. Do not let children tamper with the cylinder.
• When using the barbecue after extended periods of storage, ensure to check for gas leaks and any
obstructions in the burner. Also follow the cleaning procedures to ensure the gas griddle is safe.
