• The burners should be cleaned annually, or
whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that
there are no signs of blockage (debris, insects) in
either the burner portholes or the venturi tubes
of the burners fitted over the valve outlets. A
clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the grill.
Vapor Bar
• Clean the vapor bar with soap and warm water
using a low abrasive cleaning cloth or sponge.
CAUTION: SPIDER ALERT! Spiders or small insects
can create "flashback" problems. The spiders
spin webs or build nests in the grill burner tubes,
obstructing the flow of gas to the burner. The
backed-up gas can ignite in the tube behind the
control panel. This is known as flashback and can
damage your grill or cause personal injury. To
prevent flashback and ensure good performance,
remove and clean the burners before use whenever
the grill has been idle for an extended period.

We suggest the following ways to clean the burner
tubes. Use the one easiest for you.
(A) Using a narrow bottle brush or alloy wheel
brush with a flexible handle (do not use a brass
wire brush), run the brush through each burner
tube several times.
(B) 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.
