	by pulling the drip pan toward you. The drip pan needs to be

	from the griddle through the drain tube and accumulate in the drip
	pan. Wash in hot soapy water or with an antibacterial cleaner. The

Grill (If applicable)

The grill grate may be cleaned immediately after cooking is complete and before turning off the flame. Wearing a barbecue mitt to protect your hand from heat, use a soft bristle barbecue brush to scrub the grill grate. Dip the brush frequently in a bowl of water. Steam is created as the water contacts the hot grate. The steam assists the cleaning process by softening the food particles. For thorough cleaning of the grill grate, soak 15 to 30 minutes in a hot water and detergent solution. After soaking, scrub with a soft scotch brite pad. DO NOT USE a steel wool pad or abrasive cleaners. They could damage the porcelain

Clean greasy parts with a household grease solvent such as household ammonia and water. If necessary, a soap filled steel wool pad can be used on the grill frame shield, grill burner, and grill heat deflector.
