Cleaning the Heat Deflectors
Located under the burners, the heat deflectors
distribute heat evenly throughout the cookbox while
cooking. Keeping heat deflectors clean will enhance
the cooking performance of your grill.
1) Scrape the heat deflectors with a plastic
scraper (G).
2) If necessary, brush the heat deflectors with a
stainless steel bristle grill brush.
3) Remove heat deflectors and set aside.
Cleaning the Cookbox
Look inside the cookbox for any grease accumulation
or leftover food particles. Excessive accumulation can
cause a fire.
1) Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris off the
sides and bottom of the grill into the opening in
the bottom of the cookbox (H). This opening leads
debris into the slide-out grease tray.
Cleaning the Grease Management System
The grease management system consists of an
angled slide-out grease tray and a catch pan. These
components were designed to be easily removed,
cleaned, and replaced; an essential step every time
you prepare to grill. Instructions on inspecting the
grease management system can be found in MEAL-TO-
MEAL MAINTENANCE.
Cleaning the Outside of the Grill
The outside of your grill may include stainless steel,
porcelain-enameled, and plastic surfaces. WEBER
recommends the following methods based on the
surface type.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
Clean stainless steel using a non-toxic, non-abrasive
stainless steel cleaner or polish designed for use on
outdoor products and grills. Use a microfiber cloth to
clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel.
Do not use paper towels.
Note: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with
abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish. They
will change the colour of the metal by removing the top
chromium oxide film coating.
Cleaning Painted, Porcelain-Enameled
Surfaces and Plastic Components
Clean painted, porcelain-enameled and plastic
components with warm soapy water, and paper towels
or cloth. After wiping down the surfaces, rinse and dry
thoroughly.
Cleaning the Outside of Grills that are in
Unique Environments
If your grill is subject to a particularly harsh
environment, you will want to clean the outside more
often. Acid rain, pool chemicals, and salt water can
cause surface rusting to appear. Wipe down the
outside of your grill with warm soapy water. Follow
up with a rinse and thorough drying. Additionally, you
may want to apply a stainless steel cleaner weekly to
prevent surface rust.
Cleaning the Grill Light
Wipe the grill light clean with a damp cloth only. The
light is weather resistant to rain and snow, but not
waterproof. Do not submerge in water.
THERMOMETER
Small and relatively inexpensive,
this gadget is essential for
quickly gauging the internal
temperature of the meat
when barbecuing.
TONGS
Consider these to be an extension
of your hand. The best tongs
should have an effortless tension
mechanism, comfortable hand
grips, and a lock to keep
them compact.
GRILL BRUSH
A must-use before you even dream of
barbecuing. A quick once-over on hot
grates prevents the charred remains
of meals past from sticking to
your meals present.
