STAINLESS STEEL
ProFire
The gas grill is made from non-rusting, nonmagnetic, type 304 stainless steel.
There are many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest clean-
ing methods first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain. To touch up noticeable
scratches in the stainless steel, sand lightly with dry 100 grit emery paper or scotch
bright pad 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
this grease buildup scrub with a strong degreaser in the direction of the grain.
IMPORTANT: Coat the outer surface of your grill with lemon oil or a Stainless
Shine product such as Sheila Shine. WD 40 also works well to coat the outer
finish of your grill. Never clean your grill with soap and water or degreaser
without coating the outer surface of your grill when you're finished.
COOKING GRIDS
The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after cooking is completed. Be sure the
burners are turned off and there are no flames before beginning. Wear a barbecue mitt to
protect your hand from the heat. Using a brass bristle barbecue brush, scrub the hot
grids. If the grill is allowed to cool before cleaning, the cleaning process will be more dif-
ficult.
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray will collect grease from the grill. Do not attempt to remove or clean until
thoroughly cooled. To avoid grease fires or flare-ups, be sure to clean out the grease of-
ten.
GRILL BURNERS
The burners are constructed of stainless steel and should only require minimal mainte-
nance. However, they should be checked every 6 months and cleaned if needed.
1. Shut off gas supply and make sure the grill is cool before attempting to check the
burners.
2. Remove the cooking grids, then lift out the flavor grid.
3. Remove the mounting screw holding the burner in place then lift the burner up and
forward so that the burner is pulled away from the valve. (See Page 11)
