Cleaning The Gas Grill - Burnhard FRED JR. BASIC Bedienungsanleitung

CLEANING THE GAS GRILL

CLEANING AFTER EACH USE
Close the lid and set all burners to "HI". Let the grill burn out for 15-30 minutes until no more smoke
rises from the grill. Close the valve on the gas cylinder and set all burners to the "OFF" position. Open
the grill and scrub the grids clean with a stainless steel brush.
Once the grill has cooled down, empty and clean the grease trap and tray.
Fire and explosion hazard
• Do not use any flammable cleaning agents.
• Remove the gas cylinder before cleaning the
gas grill.
• Wait until the grill has cooled down completely
before cleaning.
• Clean the grill after each use.
• Remove the grease trap and dispose the grease
in an environmentally friendly manner.
• Wipe the stainless-steel surfaces and grids
using a wet cloth or clean it with hot water.
If necessary, use a mild detergent. Rinse with
MAINTENANCE OF THE CAST IRON GRIDS
The grids are enameled. This layer protects against rust and prevents food from sticking to the grids.
Despite this protective layer, the grids can absorb and release grease and moisture. It is therefore advisa-
ble to let the grids burn-in as well.
BURNING - IN THE GRIDS
Cast iron grids must be given some time to burn in to protect the metal from rust and enable a non-
stick surface. The burn-in process of cast iron can be performed in 3 simple steps:
1. Clean the cast iron grids with warm soapy water, rinse well, and wipe dry.
2. Grease the grids completely. Use a fat with a high content of saturated fatty acids, e.g. coconut oil or lard.
3. Place the grids on the grill and let them burn-in for 45 minutes at the highest temperature with the
lid closed. This burns the grease permanently onto the iron thus creating a protective patina.
MAINTENANCE OF THE STAINLESS STEEL GRIDS
Stainless steel grids do not need to be burned in. You can clean the durable grids with warm water, mild
detergent and a sponge by hand or in the dishwasher.
Stainless steel can slightly discolour when exposed to high temperatures. This is a natural process and
has no effect on the quality or your grilling result.
water and allow the gas grill to dry completely
before the next use. Next, polish the stain-
less-steel surfaces with a stainless-steel clea-
ning agent.
• Use a brush to remove food particles from the
burners.
• If in exceptional cases one of the nozzles is
blocked, use a jet needle to clean it.
• If in exceptional cases the Venturi tube (gas-mi-
xing pipe) is blocked, use a needle or pipe
cleaner to clean it.
