CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Proper care and maintenance will keep your grill in top
operating condition and prolong its life. Follow these
cleaning procedures on a timely basis and your grill will
stay clean and operate with minimum effort.
CAUTION: Be sure your grill is OFF and cool before cleaning.
Cleaning The Cooking Grids
Before initial use, and periodically, wash your
Cooking Grids in a mild soap and warm water
solution. You can use a wash cloth or vegetable
brush to clean your Cooking Grids.
Cleaning The Savor Plates
Periodically you should wash the Savor Plates
soap and warm water solution. Use a vegetable brush
to remove stubborn burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the
®
Savor Plates thoroughly before you reinstall them
into the cooking bowl.
Cleaning The Grease Tray and Receptacle
To reduce the chance of fire, the Grease Draining
Tray and Grease Receptacle should be visually
inspected before each grill use. Remove any
grease and wash Grease Tray and Receptacle with
a mild soap and warm water solution.
Cleaning the Inside of the Grill Lid
Grease can have a tendency to build up on the
inside of the Grill Lid and could drip onto deck or
patio when the lid is opened. Visually inspect the
inside of the Grill Lid before each grill use. Remove
any grease and wash with a mild soap and warm
water solution.
Annual Cleaning of The Grill Interior
Burning-off excess food after every cookout will
keep it ready for instant use. However,at least every
3 months you must give the entire grill a thorough
cleaning to minimize your risk of grease fire and
keep the grill in top shape. Follow these steps:
Turn all Burner Valves to the full OFF position.
1.
Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position.
For Natural Gas shut off valve.
2.
Disconnect the regulator from the gas tank. Inspect
the hose with regulator assembly for cracking, cuts
3.
or any other damage, and replace as neccessary.
Refer to the Parts List in this Operator's Manual.
Remove and clean the Savor Plates
Grids, Cooking Rack and Grill Burners.
4.
Cover each Gas Valve Orifice with aluminum foil.
5.
Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a fiber
pad or nylon brush and wash with a mild soap and
6.
warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
Remove aluminum foil from Orifices and check
each Orifice for obstruction.
7.
Check each Spark Electrode, adjusting as needed.
8. The space between the Spark Electrode Tip and
Spark Receiver should be approximately 3/16".
Replace the Burners and adjust the Gas
Collector Box. The edge of the collector box should
9.
be overlapping the Burner Port.

Cleaning Exterior Surfaces:
Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, we
suggest you wash your grill using a mild soap and
warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or
sponge for this process. Do not use a stiff wire or
brass brush. These will scratch stainless steel and
chip painted surfaces (varies by model) during the
cleaning process.
Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel Surfaces:
Weathering and extreme heat can cause exterior
stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color. Machine
oils used in the manufacturing process of stainless
steel can also cause this tanning color. After remov-
ing any protective PVC film from the Grill Lid and
Control Panel use a Stainless Steel Cleaner to polish
the stainless steel surfaces of your grill. Never use
abrasive cleaners or scrubbers because they will
scratch and damage your grill. Follow these steps for
the best results.
1. Turn the LP Gas tank valve (clockwise) to the full
OFF position. Disconnect the regulator and hose
assembly from LP Gas tank. For Natural Gas shut
off valve and disconnect the NG regulator and hose
rom valve. Cover exposed gas fitting with
aluminum foil.
2. Remove dirt or grease using a soft cloth and
polish stainless surfaces. W ipe with a soft cloth.
3. Remove aluminum foil from exposed gas fitting
and allow grill to air dry before attaching the
regulator and hose to your LP Gas tank, or
attaching the regulator and hose to Natural Gas
valve.
