Routine Cleaning
of The Grill Interior

Burning-off
excess
food
after every
cookout
will
keep

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 appearance
and corrosion
resistance
of stainless
steel. The fact is stainless
steel can corrode,
rust and
discolor
under
certain
conditions.
Rust
is caused
when
regular
steel particles
in the atmosphere
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
corro-
sion 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:
After every use (after your grill has cooled
down),
wipe
stainless
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.
Never use abrasive
cleaners,
scrubbers
or stiff wire
brushes
of any type on your grill.
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.
Failure
to comply
with
these
instructions
may
result
in a hazardous
situation
which,
if not
avoided,
may
result
in injury.
Keep
grill area
clear and free from
combustible
materials,
gasoline
and
other
flammable
vapors
and
liquids.
Do not obstruct
the flow of air for combustion
and ventilation.
Keep
the ventilation
openings
of the tank
enclosure
cabinet
free and clear of debris.
Visually
check
burner
flames
occasionally
to
ensure
proper
flame
pattern
as shown
below.
