Cleaning

General Cleaning

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.

Never use steel wool to clean the grill, as it will scratch the surface.

Use vinyl grill cover, available from your local dealer, to protect finish from weather. See "Accessories" section.

Stainless Steel

IMPORTANT: 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.

Rub in direction of grain to avoid scratching or damaging the surface.

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

Use Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish (Part No. 4396095). See “Requesting Assistance or Service” section to order.

Use a mild liquid detergent or all- purpose cleaner according to label instructions.

Rinse with clean water and dry at once with soft, lint-free cloth to avoid spots and streaks.

Use vinegar to remove hard water spots. Rinse with water and dry thoroughly.

Use a glass cleaner to remove fingerprints.

Grill grates

IMPORTANT: Never use a steel or fiber scraper on grill grates.

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 gallon (3.75 L) water. Soak grates for 20 minutes, then rinse with water and dry completely.

Warming Shelf

Use a mild liquid detergent (such as a dish detergent) or an all-purpose cleaner, following the label instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

For tough spots or baked-on grease, use Whirlpool Degreaser (Part No. 31552), a commercial degreaser designed for stainless steel. See "Requesting Assistance or Service" section to order.

IMPORTANT: Make sure gas supply is off and all control knobs are in the “OFF” position. Make sure the Side Burner is cool.

Exterior

The quality of this material resists most stains and pitting, providing that the surface is kept clean and protected.

Apply stainless steel polish to all non- cooking areas before first use. Re-apply after each cleaning to prevent 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 Whirlpool Degreaser (Part No. 31552), a commercial degreaser designed for stainless steel. See "Requesting Assistance or Service" section to order.

Interior

Discoloration of stainless steel on these parts is to be expected, due to intense heat from the burners.

Cleaning should always be followed by rinsing with clean, warm water.

Use a mild liquid detergent or all- purpose cleaner, following label instructions. 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. Always rub in the direction of the grain.

For small, difficult-to-clean areas, use Whirlpool Degreaser (Part No. 31552), a commercial degreaser designed for stainless steel. See "Requesting Assistance or Service" section to order.

Side burner caps and grate

Clean with a brass bristle brush.

Wash grate using mild detergent, warm water and degreaser.
