How do I properly use and care for this cover?
1. Always wait until the grill is completely cooled before placing the cover on it.
2. Drape the cover over the grill, ensuring full coverage front, back, sides, and top.
3. Use the hanging eyelets to store or secure the cover as needed (especially in windy conditions).
4. Occasionally remove or lift the cover to air it out and prevent moisture build-up.
5. Clean with a damp cloth or mild soap & water; avoid harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners.
6. When not in use, hang or fold the cover through the eyelets to maintain its shape and avoid creases.
What are the advantages and what should I watch out for?
Advantages:
• Excellent protection from weather, UV, and debris with custom fit tailored to your grill.
• Ventilation helps reduce moisture and mildew risk under the cover.
• Durable materials help with longevity and resistance to cracking in cold temperatures.
Considerations / limitations:
• Always cover only when the grill is cool — residual heat could damage the cover’s fabric.
• Over time, exposure to intense sun and weather cycles may degrade material strength or appearance.
• Even with ventilation, trapped humidity or condensation can occur—periodic airing is advisable.
• Ensure your grill exactly matches expected dimensions (no extra attachments) so the cover fits properly.
