Grill

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 finish.

To disassemble for thorough cleaning, remove parts after they have cooled in the following order:

1.Grill grates

2.Smoke generator plates

3.Grill frame

4. Grill burner

5.Heat deflector shields

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.

After using the grill, always remove the drip pan located below it by pulling the drip pan toward you. The drip pan needs to be cleaned after each use of the griddle. Cooked-off grease will drain from the griddle through the drain tube and accumulate in the drip pan. Wash in hot soapy water or with an antibacterial cleaner. The drip pan needs to be cleaned after each use. If grease is permitted to accumulate, fire hazard could occur, since the grill burners are directly above the pan. 32

Brass Parts

CAUTION: All brass special ordered parts are coated with an epoxy coating. DO NOT USE BRASS OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE BRASS OPTION PARTS. All brass parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water.

Stainless Steel Parts

All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot, soapy water at the end of each cooling period and with liquid stainless steel cleaner when soapy water will not do the job. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, abrasive cleaners, or powders. If necessary to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel. For occasional heavy cleaning use, a cleaner such as Liquid Zud can be used according to package directions. Do not permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.

Glass Surface

Clean with detergent and warm water. Glass cleaner can be used to remove fingerprints. If using glass cleaner ammonia, make sure that it does not run down on exterior door surface.

Wok Cast Iron Burner (If applicable)

For proper lighting and performance of the burner, keep the electric igniter and burner ports clean. It is necessary to clean these only when the flame does not burn blue completely around all rings of the burner, when there is a severe spillover or when the burner does not light, even though the electric spark igniter sparks. Clean the burner by scraping off burned on food soil. Use a wire, a straightened paper clip, or needle to clean the ports. Do not use a toothpick; it could break off in the port. Be sure the venturi tube remains dry.
