OUTDOOR SIDE BURNER CARE

General Cleaning

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the side burner 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 side burner, as it will scratch
the surface.
To avoid weather damage to finish, use stainless steel side
burner cover.

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.
To avoid damage to the finish, cleaners should not contain
chlorine.
Food spills should be cleaned as soon as entire side burner is
cool. Spills may cause permanent discoloration.
Cleaning Method:
■Rub in direction of grain to avoid scratching or damaging the
surface.

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.

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.

products.
