GRILL GRATES
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to grill grates, do not use a steel
or fiber scraper. Immediately after you are finished cooking,
loosen food soil with a brass bristle brush. Turn all burners to HI
for 10-15 minutes with the hood closed to burn off food soil. Turn
off all burners, raise the hood and let grates cool. Use the brass
bristle brush to remove ash from the grill grates.
When completely cool, grill racks can be removed for thorough
cleaning. Clean them with a mild detergent and warm water.
For baked-on soil, prepare a solution of 1 cup (250 mL) ammonia
to 1 gal. (3.75 L) water. Soak grates for 20 minutes, then rinse
with water and dry completely.
WARMING SHELF
Cleaning Method:
Liquid detergent or an all-purpose cleaner.
Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.
For tough spots or baked-on grease, use a commercial
degreaser designed for stainless steel.
IMPORTANT: Make sure gas supply is off and all control knobs
are in the Off position.
EXTERIOR
The quality of this material resists most stains and pitting,
providing that the surface is kept clean, polished and covered.
Apply stainless steel polish to all non-cooking areas before
first use. Reapply after each cleaning to avoid permanent
damage to surface.
Cleaning should always be followed by rinsing with clean
warm water.
Wipe the surface completely dry with a soft cloth.
For tough spots or baked-on grease, use a commercial
degreaser designed for stainless steel.
INTERIOR
Discoloration of stainless steel on these parts is to be expected,
due to intense heat from the burners. Always rub in the direction
of the grain. Cleaning should always be followed by rinsing with
clean, warm water.
Cleaning Method:
Liquid detergent or all-purpose cleaner.
Rinse with clean water and dry completely with a soft, lint-free
cloth.
A heavy-duty scrub sponge can be used with mild cleaning
products.
For small, difficult-to-clean areas, use a commercial
degreaser designed for stainless steel.
