Care & Maintenance

DRIP TRAY

The drip tray and grease cup, located under the burner
pan in the bottom of the Grill body are provided to
catch excess cooking fats and juices.
The drip tray is accessible from the rear of the Grill. It
is necessary to lift up the pan slightly while pulling it out
(see Fig. 19). Ensure the grill is cool before removing
the drip tray and grease cup.
Check it for accumulations in the grease cup after each
use of the Grill, and clean it as necessary.
Use lightly abrasive or non-abrasive products only for
cleaning the drip tray.

STAINLESS STEEL PANELS

Stainless steel is very durable and should last indefinitely with a minimum of care. Due to the nature of its
brushed surface, minor scratches may appear with normal use and handling. These may be removed with the
use of a fine to medium grade Scotch-Brite* (or similar) polishing pad. Apply gentle, even pressure while
rubbing with the grain of the steel. Do not rub against the grain, as damage to the finish can result. Never use
steel wool on the stainless steel panels.
Periodic cleaning with a non-abrasive cleaning compound, specifically formulated for stainless steel, will
remove any dirt, grease, cooking residue or discoloration that may develop.
CAUTION: Avoid the use of abrasive cleaning agents, scouring pads, or other abrasive materials to clean the
stainless steel panels, to avoid scratching the surfaces. If abrasive materials must be used as a result of heavy
accumulated smoke or grease build-up, always rub the metal
grain).

PORCELAIN ENAMEL CASTINGS

new. Use a kitchen appliance cleaner or a polish expressly formulated for use on porcelain enamel to clean the
porcelain enamel castings. (Treat it as you would a porcelain sink). Dishwasher safe.
