MAINTENANCE 
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 
After you have finished, prepare for the next cookout by 
burning off any residue of food from the grid and briquettes or  
Flav-R-Wave™ or Flav-R-Cast™ in the following manner: 
Cooking Grids 
Remove all food from the grids, turn the control knobs to 
“HIGH”, and operate the barbecue with the lid closed for 5 to 
10 minutes or until smoking stops.  Turn the gas cylinder 
valve to OFF, then the control knobs to OFF. 
Use a long-handled brass wire brush to clean the grids.  
Remember that the barbecue is hot, so wear kitchen mitts or 
use a pot-holder to handle the brush. 
You do not have to wash the grids and upper cooking rack 
after each cookout, but if you wish to do so, use a mild soap 
and water solution, then rinse them thoroughly.  Never use a 
commercial oven cleaner. 
Porcelain Coating - Most OMC cooking grids are coated 
with a durable porcelain enamel to assist in cleaning and 
reduce the tendency of food sticking to the grid. Some 
chipping may occur if mishandled.  This will not affect the use 
or performance of the grids.  If some rust appears, remove 
the rust with a scrub pad and coat the grid with cooking oil.

Ceramic Briquets 
If any residue begins to 
accumulate on the briquets, 
remove the cooking grids and turn 
the briquets over prior to lighting 
the barbecue. Be sure to place 
briquets evenly in one layer. The 
underside of the briquets will self 
clean while preheating the 
barbecue. 
Flav-R-Wave™ 
If any residue begins to  
accumulate on the  
Flav-R-Wave™, remove 
cooking  
grids and scrape excess 
residue  
with back of barbecue brush. 
Flav-R-Cast™ 
Excess food residue may be 
removed using a scrub pad or 
brass grill brush.  Coat the 
Flav-R-Cast™ with cooking 
oil when not using the barbecue for an extended period.  The 
Flav-R-Cast™ is coated with a matte porcelain finish to 
assist in cleaning and help prevent rust.  Some chipping may 
occur if mishandled.  This will not affect the use or 
performance of the Flav-R-Cast™.  If rust appears, remove 
the rust with a scrub pad and coat with cooking oil. 
Grease Cup Holder 
The grease cup holder is located on the bottom of 
the cooking oven immediately below the hole 
through which grease will drain.  The grease cup is 
not provided.  The clip, however, has been 
designed to hold a standard soup can or jar.  
Simply snap the can or jar into place.  The grease 
cup should be checked and replaced regularly to 
prevent grease from overflowing onto your patio. 
 
General Cleaning 
When the barbecue is cold, remove the grids.  If equipped 
with briquets, turn over.  Cover three quarters of the 
briquettes or Flav-R-Wave™ or Flav-R-Cast™ with aluminum 
foil, shiny side down.  Ignite the burners; operate the 
barbecue on HIGH with the lid closed for 10 minutes or until 
smoking stops.  Turn the gas cylinder valve to OFF, turn the 
control knobs to OFF.  When the barbecue is cool, remove 
the foil, and residue from briquettes or Flav-R-Wave™ or 
Flav-R-Cast™ with a vacuum. Remove briquetts and grate or 
Flav-R-Wave™ or Flav-R-Cast™, then clean the interior of 
the bottom oven by scrapping the sides and vacuuming. 
ANNUAL MAINTENANCE 
To ensure safe and efficient performance, the following 
components should be inspected and cleaned at least once 
per year or after any period of storage exceeding one month. 
Burner 
Remove burner and inspect for cracks and deterioration.   
Clean venturi tubes using a 
pipe cleaner or venturi brush 
to eliminate any blockages 
caused by spiders or insects.  
ee "Venturi Tubes". 
S
 
While burner is removed, clean interior of bottom oven by 
scrapping the sides and vacuuming. 
Hose 
Inspect and replace if necessary.  See "Hose and Regulator". 
Perma-Mold Shelves 
Wash with soap and water. To enhance luster, coat lightly 
with cooking oil. 
Exterior Finish 
If white oxidation spots appear, wash the outside of the 
housing with a mild soap and water solution.  Rinse the 
surfaces thoroughly, then wipe them with a cloth dipped in 
cooking oil to restore the luster. 
For repair of paint scratches and scuffs, use a good quality 
HIGH temperature (600°F) spray paint for touch-up. 
Replacement Parts 
If a problem is found with the regulator, hose, burner, or 
control valves, do not attempt repair.  See your dealer, 
approved service centre, or contact the factory for repairs or 
replacement parts.  To ensure optimum performance, use 
only original OMC replacement parts. 
Leak Test 
After reconnecting gas cylinder, be sure to check for leaks.
