Cleaning and Maintenance

Remove burner from slots located in front

mounting bracket.

Note: When reinstalling burner, verify that gas inlet opening of burner is over the gas orifice or injector.

Once the burners are removed, clean the exterior with a wire brush. Clear out any clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. NEVER use a toothpick or similar items as they may break off and clog the port. Shake out any debris through the air shutter. Use a flashlight to inspect the burner inlet to en-sure it is not blocked. If obstructions can be seen, use a metal wire coat hanger that has been straightened out to clean. You also may use an air hose to blow out any debris that may remain.

WARNING

Do not use flammable cleaning materials. Use a flashlight to inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is not blocked. If obstructions can be seen, use a metal wire coat hanger that has been straightened out. Shake out any debris through the air shutter.

Cleaning and Maintenance

TruSear™ Infrared Grill Burner (If Applicable)

When finished cooking, turn the control knob to the “HIGH” setting and allow the burner to burn for 5 minutes. This helps eliminate any drippings or debris that would otherwise remain on the burner, degrading the performance and reducing burner life. After the 5 minute burn-off time, turn the grill “OFF” and allow to cool completely before attempting to clean or move. Wipe excess grease and food from grill surfaces.

Note: When the TruSear™ infrared burner is not use, it must be covered with the provided stainless steel cover for protection from outside elements such as rain.

Drip Tray

The drip tray pans (if applicable) should be removed and cleaned after each use. Allow the drippings in the the drip tray pans to cool completely before removing. To remove the drip tray pans, simply remove the pans from the tray. Place the

trays in hot, soapy water to clean. Wipe up any debris that may have

collected in the drip tray with a hot, soapy towel. Dry and replace drip

tray pans before next use.

CAUTION

DO NOT use a metal knife or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel parts.

DO NOT permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on stainless steel surfaces, as citric acid will permanently discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.

DO NOTt use abrasive cleaners, steel wool pads, or abrasive cloths on stainless steel, painted parts, or brass parts.

DO NOT use brass cleaners on the brass option parts. They feature an epoxy coating.
