To safely ignite your gas BBQ, first open the grill lid to allow any gas buildup to disperse. Next, turn on the gas supply. Turn the control knob labeled ‘IGNITION BURNER’ to the MAX position and then activate the INSTASTART™ ignition button. To light additional burners, turn their respective control knobs. Always confirm that you can see the flame in each burner to ensure they have ignited properly.

For optimal cooking, it’s recommended to preheat your gas BBQ for 15-20 minutes before you start. Your BBQ is ready for cooking when the built-in thermometer indicates a temperature of 250 degrees Celsius. Keep in mind that preheat times may vary based on weather conditions and the heating power of your burners.an answer to this item.

Caution: A working BBQ should be supervised at all times. Do not turn on the BBQ for preheating and leave it unattended.

After preheating your BBQ, use a grill brush to scrub away any lingering debris from the grates. For a more comprehensive clean, you can remove the grates and soak them in warm, soapy water.

Note: It’s not recommended to clean your grates in a dishwasher as doing so can damage the porcelain coating.

Additional Tip: After cleaning and drying the grates, it’s a good practice to lightly coat them with cooking oil. This not only helps to prevent food from sticking but also aids in maintaining the grates’ condition.

It’s recommended to check the gas lines and connections at least annually or at the start of the BBQ season. Examine them for any cracks, holes, or signs of wear and tear.

Tip: Use soapy water to spray the connection areas and watch for bubbles, which could indicate a gas leak.

Caution: If you have any concerns or spot potential issues, consult with a certified plumber or gas fitter in your area for a thorough inspection and possible repairs.

Propane tanks should always be stored in a well-ventilated area, shielded from direct sunlight. Indoor or enclosed storage, such as in a garage, is not advisable.

Note: If you store the gas bottle under the BBQ, make sure the knob on the gas regulator, which is connected to the gas bottle, is securely set to the “CLOSE” position.

If you smell gas, immediately shut off the gas supply, extinguish any open flames, and disconnect the gas bottle. Evacuate the area around the BBQ for safety.

Important: If the gas smell persists after 5 minutes, it’s crucial to contact emergency services for immediate assistance.

he Coleman Revolution BBQ is designed to reach cooking temperatures efficiently under normal conditions. With all burners on MAX and the lid closed, it should:

• Reach over 200°C within 15 minutes
• Reach approximately 280°C within 25 minutes

Performance may vary depending on:

• Outdoor temperature
• Sun exposure
• Wind or breeze

If your BBQ isn’t reaching the expected heat, consider the following possible causes:

---

1. Low Gas Supply

Check your gas bottle level — it might be empty or nearly depleted.

2. Blocked Burners

Food residue or grease buildup can block burner holes. Use a BBQ cleaning brush and a pin to carefully clean them.

3. Wind Interference

Even light wind can cool the firebox and disrupt the flame. Try relocating your BBQ to a more sheltered area, away from breeze exposure.

4. Over-tightened Regulator

Some newer regulators may restrict gas flow if connected too tightly. Try loosening the regulator slightly (while still ensuring it’s firmly secured) to allow better flow.

⚠️ Safety Reminder

Only clean the burners after the BBQ has completely cooled, and always disconnect the gas supply before performing any maintenance.

An accumulation of excess fat and oil commonly causes flare-ups. The risk is substantially reduced when using Coleman Revolution’s Flare-Free technology. To further mitigate the chance of flare-ups, maintain a clean grill by emptying the drip tray and Flare-Free cup after each use.

Caution: Flare-ups not only pose a risk to your BBQ but can also cause significant damage to surrounding areas and pose a safety hazard to users. Regular cleaning of the BBQ firebox is essential for safe operation.

Yes, conversion from propane to natural gas is possible, but it must be performed by a certified plumber / gas fitter. To ensure your warranty remains valid, you must obtain and keep written proof of the conversion completed by the licensed professional.

Please note that Coleman is unable to provide support, parts, or guidance for such conversions due to liability insurance limitations.

For reference, Coleman Revolution BBQs are compatible with LPG (liquefied petroleum gas).

Materials Needed:

• Commercial cleaner or warm, soapy water
• Microfiber cloth
• Buffing agents (Bar Keepers Friend, baking soda, whitening toothpaste)
• Distilled white vinegar
• Olive, vegetable, or mineral oil

 

Instructions:

1. Clean the Surface: Start by cleaning the stainless steel appliance with a commercial cleaner or a solution of warm, soapy water to remove grease and grime. A clean surface will help identify the scratches that need attention.
2. Identify the Grain: Observe the grain of the stainless steel, which runs either vertically or horizontally. It’s essential to work along this grain when buffing out scratches.
3. Choose a Buffing Compound: Select a buffing agent like baking soda, Bar Keepers Friend, or non-gel toothpaste. You can also use commercial stainless steel scratch removers.
4. Buff the Scratch: Dip a dampened microfiber cloth into your chosen paste. Using gentle pressure, apply the paste to the scratch with straight strokes, following the grain. Avoid circular motions. If using a commercial product, follow its specific instructions.
5. Clean Away the Paste: Wipe off the paste using a damp microfiber cloth. Then, spritz the area with distilled white vinegar and wipe again to remove any residue.
6. Polish the Stainless Steel: To restore shine, polish the surface with a few drops of oil (WD40, olive, vegetable) on a microfiber cloth, following the grain.

 

For Deep Scratches on Uncoated Stainless Steel:

• Clean the surface to remove grime.
• Use fine-grit sandpaper (400-600 grit) soaked in water.
• Buff out the scratch gently, following the grain.
• Clean the surface with vinegar and a damp cloth.
• Polish with oil to restore shine.
• Consider professional repair for coated stainless steel or severe scratches.

 

Removing Scratches from Other Stainless Steel Items:

• Smudge-proof stainless steel: Avoid removing the coating. Buff out scratches and use vegetable oil to mask the dulled area.
• Black stainless steel: Use a black permanent marker to mask scratches.
• Stainless steel sinks and countertops: Apply the same methods as for appliances.
• Stainless steel cookware: Use commercial compounds or non-gel white toothpaste with a non-abrasive sponge.
• Stainless steel hardware: Apply a compound like Bar Keepers Friend and buff with a microfiber cloth or sponge.
• Stainless steel jewelry and watches: Clean with a soft toothbrush and gentle soap. Use a Scotch-Brite pad for brushed metal, or a metal polishing cloth for polished surfaces.

 

Tips to Maintain and Prevent Scratches:

• Use cutting boards on stainless steel surfaces.
• Avoid harsh cleaners and scrubbing pads.
• Consider a water-softening system in hard water areas.
• Always clean along the grain.
