GeneralCleaning

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the grill is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning products.

For routine cleaning, wash with soap and water using a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse with clean water and dry at once with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid spots and streaks.

Do not use steel wool to clean the grill, as it will scratch the surface.

Use vinyl grill cover, available from your local dealer, to shelter finish from weather. See “Assistance or Service” section.

STAINLESS STEEL

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to stainless steel surfaces, do not use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop Polishing Creme, steel wool, gritty wash cloths or paper towels.

Cleaners should not contain chlorine. Damage may occur.

Food spills should be cleaned as soon as entire grill is cool. Spills may cause permanent discoloration.

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.
