Prepare the BBQ safely
Switch off the barbecue and allow it to cool completely. Follow the manual for utility isolation and removable parts. Do not disconnect gas, dismantle burners or work on electrical components unless qualified and authorised.
Choose a compatible degreaser
Read the product label and BBQ manual before applying a degreaser. Some products can damage aluminium, paint, enamel, coatings or food-contact surfaces. Never mix oven cleaner, bleach, ammonia, vinegar or other chemicals.
Remove accessible residue carefully
Use only tools and methods suitable for the grill. Avoid aggressive scraping that may damage surfaces and do not direct high-pressure water into burners, valves, igniters or wiring. Rinse and dry parts as the product and appliance instructions require.
Recognise when to seek help
Persistent grease inside burners, blocked gas pathways, corrosion, damaged coatings or suspected leaks require specialist assessment. A cleaning service can quote an agreed scope but cannot guarantee fire prevention, food safety or restored performance.
