Tube Burner

: The burners are made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive envi-

ronment can cause surface corrosion to occur. This can be removed with a brass wire brush.

CAUTION!

Beware of Spiders.

Spiders and insects are attracted to the smell of propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an in-
sect screen on the air shutter, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner but does
not entirely eliminate the problem. A nest or web can cause the burner to burn with a soft yellow or orange
flame or cause a fire (flashback) at the air shutter beneath the control panel.

To clean the inside of the burner,

it must be removed from the gas grill:

Remove the screw that attaches the burner to the back wall. Slide the

burner back and upwards to remove. Cleaning: Use a flexible venturi tube brush to clean the inside of the
burner. Shake any loose debris from the burner through the gas inlet. Check the burner ports and valve orifices
for blockages. Burner ports can close over time due to cooking debris and corrosion, use an opened paperclip
or the supplied port maintenance bit to clean them. Drill out blocked ports using this drill bit in a small cord-
less drill. The ports are easier to clean if the burner is removed from the grill, but it can also be done with the
burner installed. Do not flex the drill bit when drilling the ports, as this will cause the drill bit to break. This drill
is for burner ports only, not for the brass orifices (jets) which regulate the flow into the burner. Take care not to
enlarge the holes. Ensure the insect screen is clean, tight, and free of any lint or other debris.

Reinstallation:

Reverse the procedure to reinstall the burner. Check that the valve enters the burner when

installing.

Drip Pan

: Accumulated grease is a fire hazard. Clean the drip pan frequently (every 4 – 5 uses or as often as re-

quired) to avoid grease buildup. Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located beneath the
gas grill and accumulate in the disposable grease tray below the drip pan. To access the disposable grease tray
or to clean the drip pan, slide the drip pan free of the grill. Never line the drip pan with aluminum foil, sand or
any other material as this could prevent the grease from flowing properly. The pan should be scraped out with
a putty knife or scraper. Replace the disposable grease tray every 2 – 4 weeks, depending on gas grill usage.
For supplies, see your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer.

Cleaning The Outer Grill Surface:

Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on any painted, porcelain or stain-

less steel parts of your Napoleon Grill. Doing so will scratch the finish. Exterior grill surfaces should be cleaned
with warm soapy water while the metal is still warm to the touch. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless
steel or a non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Over time, stainless steel parts
discolor when heated, usually to a golden or brown hue. This discoloration is normal and does not affect the
performance of the grill. Porcelain enamel components must be handled with additional care. The baked-on
enamel finish is glass-like, and will chip if struck. Touch-up enamel is available from your Napoleon Grill dealer.

WARNING!

Hose: Check for abrasions, melting, cuts, and cracks in the hose. If any of these conditions

exist, do not use the gas grill. Have the part replaced by your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer or qualified gas
installer.

WARNING!

When reinstalling the burner after cleaning it is very

important that the valve/orifice enters the burner tube before lighting your
gas grill. If the valve is not inside the burner tube a fire or explosion could
occur.

Aluminum Castings

: Clean castings periodically with warm soapy water. Aluminum will not rust, but high

temperatures and weathering can cause oxidation to occur on aluminum surfaces. This appears as white spots
on the castings. To refinish these areas, clean first and sand lightly with fine sandpaper. Wipe the surface to
remove any residue and paint with high temperature barbecue paint. Protect surrounding areas from over-
spray. Follow the manufacture’s directions for curing.
