Weber 57503 Beautiful Inside and OUT, Routine Maintenance, Cleaning the Outside of the Grill

BEAUTIFUL—

INSIDE AND OUT

Weber® grill owners take a lot of pride in their grills. Flaunt your pride and joy. Keep your grill clean and beautiful—inside and out— by following these routine maintenance steps.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE GRILL

To keep the outside of your grill looking its best, use the following guidelines for safe cleaning.

mWARNING: Turn your Weber® gas grill off and wait for it to cool before cleaning it.

Painted, Enameled and Plastic Surfaces

Use a warm, soapy water solution to clean outside surfaces; then rinse with water.

IMPORTANT: Do not use cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits, or xylene. Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive cleansers (kitchen cleansers), cleaners that contain citrus products, or abrasive cleaning pads on grill or cart surfaces.

Fold-out tables (Q® 1200, Q® 2000, Q® 2200) are not to be used as cutting boards.

CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE GRILL

To keep your grill performing safely and efficiently, it is important to remove any debris and excess grease that may have accumulated on the inside of the grill. Use the following guidelines for safe cleaning.

Inside Lid

Flaking, built-up grease resembles paint flakes. Wipe inside of lid with paper towel to prevent grease build- up. Wash inside lid with warm, soapy water; then rinse with water.

Cookbox Components & Burner Tube

You will need: A stainless steel bristle brush, and a stiff plastic scraper.

A)Scrape and brush the cooking grates with the scraper and brush. Remove the cooking grates and set aside.

mCAUTION: Grill brushes should be checked for loose bristles and excessive wear on a regular basis. Replace brush if any loose bristles are found on cooking grates or brush. Weber recommends purchasing a new stainless steel grill brush at the beginning of every spring.

mCAUTION: Do not clean cooking grates in a self-cleaning oven.

B)Brush any debris off of burner tube. Do not enlarge burner ports (openings) running along length of burner tube (1).

C)When cleaning is complete, replace the cooking grates.

Cookbox

Wash inside of cookbox with warm, soapy water; then rinse with water.

Removable Catch Pan and Disposable Drip Pan

Your grill was built with a grease collection system, which funnels grease away from food and into a removable catch pan. For your convenience, you can also line the removable catch pan with a Weber® disposable drip pan, which will help keep the removable catch pan cleaner longer.

Cleaning the removable catch pan is just as important as cleaning the cookbox. Check the removable catch pan for grease build-up each time you use your grill. Remove excess grease with a plastic scraper (2). Wash the removable catch pan with warm, soapy water and rinse with water.

mWARNING: Check the removable catch pan or disposable drip pan for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire. A grease fire can cause serious bodily injury or damage to property.

mCAUTION: Do not line the cookbox, removable catch pan or disposable drip pan with aluminum foil.
