Cleaning The Burners - Ferno SA-3BLP-01 Care & Use Manual

CLEANING THE DRIP PAN
Regular cleaning of the drip pan is HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED. The drip pan can be removed
completely from the grill for easier cleaning. Start
by draining any free-flowing grease by tilting the
pan over a waste container. Scrape up the food
debris with a metal spatula or similar device. Wipe
the remaining grease with paper towels, and then
finish by using a mild solution of dish soap and a
kitchen sponge backed by a Scotch Bright material.
CLEANING THE GRATES
Your Ferno Grill is equipped with cast iron cooking
grates. These grates should be treated with care
and in a similar manner to a cast iron pan. DO NOT
burn the grease and debris off using high heat, this
will destroy the 'seasoning' on your grates. It is
best to clean the grates immediately after each use
while the grill is still warm (but not turned on).
Wear long oven or BBQ mitt(s) to protect your
hand(s) from the heat and use a commercially
available grill brush to loosen grease and debris.
Dipping the brush in hot water can make it easier
to remove the grease. Follow up by wiping the
grates with a rag. Periodically you should do a
more thorough cleaning by removing the grates
and deep cleaning them. They can be placed in a
pan of water with dish soap and then scrubbed
with a non-metallic medium grit abrasive (like a
sponge backed with Scotch Brite material). It is
NOT recommended to use metallic abrasives (like
steel wool) since portions of the steel fibers can
remain on the grates and contaminate food.
CLEANING THE RADIANT PLATES
If you are deep cleaning your grates, then it is a
good time to clean the radiant plate(s). They are
located directly BELOW the grates over top of each
burner. Tilt the radiant plates at an angle to
dislodge the locking tabs and then pull the radiant
up and out.
The lower radiant plates are removed by pulling
out the cotter pins and lifting upwards. Start by
scraping off all heavy debris with a flat object (a
wide putty knife or metal spatula work well). Finish
by placing the plates in a pan of hot soapy water
and clean them with a sponge backed with a Scotch
Brite material.

CLEANING THE BURNERS

Once the grates and radiant plates have been
removed from the grill (see above), you will have
access to the main burners. MAKE SURE the grill is
cool and that all burner control knobs and main gas
supply valves are turned OFF.
TO REMOVE THE BURNERS
1. Remove all three grates from the grill.
2. Remove each of the upper radiants by tilting
the radiant at an angle to dislodge the locking
tabs and then pull the radiant up and out.
3. The lower radiant plates are removed by pulling
out the cotter pins and lifting upwards.
