comment
" ...  I also had some problems with the grill seemingly locking itself, even when not in the locked position. ... What I realized is that the locking mechanism (even in the open/unlocked position) recedes into the hole that would be used for locking. ... The lid cover then sometimes shifts forward or backward, moving the bent locking mechanism slightly such that it cannot easily come back through the hole. ... I then realized that if you move the lock to the locked position BEFORE closing the lid, the piece doesn't go into the hole and you won't have the same problem.  ...  "
