Drip Tray; Stainless Steel Panels; Porcelain Enamel Castings - Vermont Castings Signature VCS301 Series User Manual

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. (Fig. 19)
Always confirm that the grill has cooled to a safe temperature
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 nonabrasive products only for cleaning
the drip tray.

sTaInless sTeel Panels

Stainless steel is very durable and should last indefinitely with a minimum of care. Stainless steel is rust
resistant, not rust proof. Minor surface rust may occur in the presence of salt (ocean) water or some clean-
ing agents that contain chlorine. 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.
Periodic cleaning with a nonabrasive cleaning compound, specifically formulated for stainless steel, will
ordinarily remove any dirt, grease, cooking residue or discoloration that may develop.
CaUTI�n
Whenever possible, 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 with the grain of the stainless
steel, (never against the grain).
P�rCelaIn enaMel CasTInGs
Periodic cleaning with a dry or slightly damp cloth or soft brush will keep porcelain enamel surfaces look-
ing 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.
CaUTI�n
Never use abrasive cleaning agents or abrasive materials to clean the porcelain enamel castings, as they
will permanently scratch the porcelain enamel surfaces.
