Cleaning And Maintenance - RUSTA COMPACT 62351220-1222 Manual

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Allow all parts of the grill to cool completely before cleaning them.
• The grill must be thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis. If the grill is used in
particularly corrosive environments, e.g. coastal locations, it is vital that it is cleaned
frequently. Otherwise, salt and moisture may cause the protective surface layer of the
grill to degrade, creating patches of surface rust.
• When the grill is not in use, it must be protected from rain and contaminants by a grill
cover. This prevents the grill collecting dirt and developing surface rust.
• Before putting the grill into long term storage, e.g. over the winter, it must be
thoroughly cleaned, dryed and stored under a grill cover in a dry and dust-free
environment.
CLEANING THE GRILL GRATE
• Do not use sharp objects to clean the grill grate as doing so may damage the grate
surface.
• It is not necessary to clean the grill grate after each use. Just remove any residue with
a brush and wipe with paper towels.
• However, the grate should be cleaned thoroughly every now and again. Use water and
a mild detergent. Rinse with clean water and leave to dry.
• Before grilling, apply cooking oil to the grate in order to prevent food residues from
sticking.
CLEANING THE GRILL
• Remove the grill grate and the coal grate.
• Remove the ash.
• Wash the grill with water and a mild detergent. Rinse with clean water and leave to dry.
