CARE & USE/INSTALLATION
GRILLING RACKS
The easiest way to clean the grill racks is to do so im-
mediately after turning off the burners, while they are still
hot. Wearing a long BBQ mitt to protect your hand from
steam, dip a brass bristle brush in hot water and scrub
the grill rack. Dip the brush frequently because the steam
helps remove baked-on foods.
CERAMIC BRIQUETTES
The ceramic briquettes normally burn off any accumulated
food drippings. But you may occasionally experience
larger spills that don’t burn off under normal use.
When this happens, let the grill cool completely. Remove
the racks and then the briquette trays by lifting the front
edge and pulling them toward you.
Flip the trays over and put them
back in place over the burner.
Light the burners and set them
to “HI” for 5 - 10 minutes to
burn the briquettes clean. Any
remaining food items can be
brushed off using a soft brush.
Be sure the trays have completely
cooled before reinstalling them.
Replacement briquette trays can be ordered from Lynx or
from your dealer.
MAIN CERAMIC BURNERS
Make sure the grill is completely cool before proceeding.
Ensure that the gas supply is off and all control knobs are
in the “OFF” position.
To Remove Ceramic Burners:
Remove the grill racks and briquette trays.
Rremove the burner caps to prevent accidental breakage
Lift the burner up until the legs exit the frame.
Then pull to the rear of the grill so the burner head comes
off the brass orifice at the front.
Angle the burner sideways and lift it out.
To Clean the Ceramic Burner:
To maximize grill performance, clean the exterior of the
burner with a nylon brush when cooled. Clear any clogged
ports by lifting the ceramic burner caps and cleaning any
debris at the port holes.
Shake out any debris through the venturi or or burner cap
openings.
Use a flashlight to inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is
not blocked. If obstructions can be seen, clean it with a
paper clip or a pipe cleaner.

WARNING
TRIDENT ™ BURNER
It’s easy to keep your Trident ™ burner operating at peak
performance. Just run it on “HI” with the hood open for 5
minutes after each use to burn away any food particles or
drippings.
Any ash accumulation on the burner screen can be
removed with a light brush or vacuum … BUT WAIT UNTIL
THE BURNER IS COOL! Never use water or liquid to clean.
Every 3 to 6 months, remove the burner and inspect the
venturi (inlet) and orifice to ensure that they’re free of
obstructions.
Food debris on the inside of the burner can be gently
shaken out. Do not touch the ceramic surface.
When re-installing the Trident ™ burner, be sure to correctly
position the burner.
