7.Remove the release sheet locking clips and bars.

8.Scrape only the lower grill surface with a grill scraper, and squeegee any residue into the grease troughs with a grill squeegee.

Caution: Do not scrape or otherwise scratch the upper platens. The use of metal scrapers, abrasive pads, or wire brushes will permanently damage the surface of the upper platens.

9.Open one packet of high-temperature grill cleaner, (several cleaners may be available on the market), and empty the contents into a suitable container. (One packet will clean one grill.)

10.Firmly attach a no-scratch pad to a pad holder.

11.Dip the no-scratch pad into the grill cleaner, and spread a light coating of grill cleaner over the entire platen surface, back, front, and side edges of both upper platens. DO NOT SCRUB.

12.After applying the grill cleaner, lightly scrub the platen surfaces, BACK, FRONT AND SIDE EDGES with the no-scratch pad until all the soil has been liquefied by the grill cleaner. For stubborn soils, apply additional grill cleaner and lightly scrub. DO NOT RINSE THE PLATENS AT THIS TIME.
