MAINTENANCE & CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
⚫ Make sure your grill is OFF and cold completely before performing any maintenance and
cleaning.
STEEL SURFACES
There are different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest one for cleaning
first and scrubbing in the direction of the grain. To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless
steel, sand very lightly with dry 100 grit emery paper in the direction of the grain. Specks of
grease can gather on the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface, giving the
appearance of rust. To remove, use a soft abrasive pad in conjunction with a stainless steel
cleaner.
GREASE
With long-term use, it caused the accumulation of grease on the flue lining and the grease drip
tray. Always be sure this grease catching area is clean and free of debris. You should check and
clean these areas periodically to reduce the risk of fire. The flue exhaust should be inspected at
least twice a year to determine if grease buildup has resulted.
The grease bucket should be emptied, wiped down periodically, then washed with a mild
detergent and warm water solution. Check the grease bucket frequently. Don't allow excess
grease to accumulate and overflow the grease bucket.
The grease bucket and the grease drip tray should be inspected at least twice a year for signs of
grease buildup.
It is easier to clean of accumulated grease when the grill is still warm -- not hot. Be Careful Not
To Burn Yourself. Gloves are recommended.
COOKING GRATE
We recommend using a long-handled cleaning brush to give the porcelain-coated cooking grate
a quick brushing when you finish the barbecue. It takes only a minute and it will be ready the next
time you want to use the grill.
Clean the RTD sensor after each time use.
Ash
Clean the ash from the interior of the grill periodically, otherwise excess ash in the firepot may
cause your fire to go out, especially in the SMOKE setting.
A shop vac is an excellent tool to handle the ash. (WARNING: Make sure you grill is cold when
you want to clean the ash from the grill.)
A vacuum cleaner is the best way to clean the pellet ash from the firepot but this must be done
with extreme care to avoid fire risk. Again, removing the pellet ash from the firepot should be
done only while your grill is cold.
