Switch off, isolate and let the BBQ cool
Follow the manual to switch off and isolate the appliance, then wait until it is fully cool before routine cleaning. Do not handle hot surfaces, gas connections or electrical components.
Clean removable parts as directed
Check the manual for grate, plate and tray material and approved tools or products. Avoid abrasive pads or chemicals that may damage coatings. Do not soak burners, igniters or parts the maker says to keep dry.
Manage grease without creating a hazard
Empty the grease tray only when cool and dispose of collected fat appropriately, not down a drain. Never use fuel, mix cleaning chemicals or use an improvised heat or burn-off method.
Stop for damage or a suspected fault
Corrosion, damaged hoses, gas odour, ignition problems or blocked components need manufacturer or qualified technician advice. Cleaning is not appliance repair or a safety inspection.
