Proper care and maintenance will keep your grill in top oper-
ating 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
Grid
[]
Before initial use, and periodically, wash your Cooking Grid in a
mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or
vegetable brush to clean your Cooking Grid.
Cleaning
The Grease
Receptacle
[]
To reduce the chance of fire, the Grease Receptacle should be
visually inspected before each grill use. Remove any grease and
wash Grease 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.
Routine
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.
Cleaning
Exterior
painted
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:
[]
Routine care and maintenance is required to preserve the ap-
pearance and corrosion resistance of stainless steel. The fact is
stainless steel can corrode, rust and discolor under certain con-
ditions. Rust is caused when regular steel particles in the atmo-
sphere become attached to the stainless steel surface. Steel
particles can also become attached to your grill if you use steel
wool or stiff wire brushes to clean the grill instead of non-abrasive
cloth, sponge or nylon cleaning tools. In coastal areas rust pits
can develop on stainless surfaces that cannot be fully removed.
Bleach and other chlorine based solutions used for household
and pool cleaning can also cause corrosion to stainless steel.
Weathering,
extreme heat, smoke from cooking and machine
oils used in the manufacturing
process of stainless steel can
cause stainless steel to turn tan in color. Although there are many
factors which can affect the surface appearance of stainless steel,
they do not affect the integrity of the steel or the performance of
the grill.
[]
To help maintain the finish of stainless steel follow these cleaning
procedures for the best results:
1.
After every use (after your grill has cooled down), wipe stain-
less surfaces
with a soft, soapy cloth or sponge then rinse
with water. Be sure to remove all food particles,
sauces or
marinades from stainless steel because these can be highly
acidic and damaging to stainless surfaces.
2.
Never use abrasive cleaners, scrubbers or stiff wire brushes of
any type on your grill.
3.
Use a heat resistant Stainless Steel Cleaner and rub or wipe in
the direction of the stainless steel grain or polish lines NOT against
the grain.
