General Cleaning - Jenn-Air FREESTANDING OUTDOOR GRILLS Installation Instructions And Use & Care Manual

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the grill and oven are cool. Always follow label instructions on
cleaning products. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces
until the oven has completely cooled down. To avoid breaking the
glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass
before it has completely cooled.
For routine cleaning, wash with soap and water using a soft cloth
or sponge. Rinse with clean water and dry at once with a soft,
lint-free cloth to avoid spots and streaks.
Do not use steel wool to clean the grill, as it will scratch the
surface.
To avoid weather damage to finish, use vinyl grill cover.
STAINLESS STEEL
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to stainless steel surfaces, do not
use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, cooktop
polishing creme, steel wool, gritty washcloths or paper towels.
Cleaners should not contain chlorine. Damage may occur.
Food spills should be cleaned as soon as entire grill is cool. Spills
may cause permanent discoloration.
Cleaning Method:
Rub in direction of grain to avoid scratching or damaging the
surface.
Stainless steel cleaner
Liquid detergent or all-purpose cleaner:
Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.
Vinegar to remove hard water spots.
Glass cleaner to remove fingerprints.
GRILL GRATES
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to grill grates, do not use a steel
or fiber scraper. Immediately after you are finished cooking,
loosen food soil with a brass bristle brush. Turn all burners to HI
for 10-15 minutes with the hood closed to burn off food soil. Turn
off all burners, raise the hood and let grates cool. Use the brass
bristle brush to remove ash from the grill grates.
When completely cool, grill racks can be removed for thorough
cleaning. Clean them with a mild detergent and warm water.
For baked-on soil, prepare a solution of 1 cup (250 mL) ammonia
to 1 gal. (3.75 L) water. Soak grates for 20 minutes, then rinse
with water and dry completely.
WARMING SHELF
Cleaning Method:
Liquid detergent or an all-purpose cleaner.
Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.
For tough spots or baked-on grease, use a commercial
degreaser designed for stainless steel.
IMPORTANT: Make sure gas supply is off and all control knobs
are in the Off position.

warm water.
