Disconnect the gas supply, then remove grates, burner covers, and nozzle caps. Place removable parts in a sink or tray for easier cleaning. <strong>Step 2: Apply Cleaner<\/strong><br>Apply aluminum-safe cleaner to the metal nozzles and let it sit 5\u201310 minutes to dissolve grease or food particles. Avoid harsh chemicals. For a natural option, use a baking soda and vinegar paste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: Clear Gas Tubes<\/strong><br>Insert a wooden stick or narrow tool gently into the gas openings. Move it back and forth to dislodge blockages. For tighter areas, use a brush or pipe cleaner. Common debris includes soot, grease, and dust. <strong>Step 4: Wipe and Dry<\/strong> Wipe away residue with cloths or tissue. Rinse removable parts if needed and dry thoroughly.
