CARE AND MAINTENANCE

STAINLESS STEEL

The grill is made from non-rusting and 
non-magnetic stainless steel. There are 
many different stainless steel cleaners 
available. Always use the mildest cleaning 
procedure first, scrubbing in the direction 
of the grain. To touch up noticeable 
scratches in the stainless steel, sand very 
lightly with dry 100 grit emery paper in the 
direction of the grain. Specks of grease 
can gather on the surfaces of the stainless 
steel and bake on to the surface and give 
the appearance of rust. For removal use 
an abrasive pad in conjunction with a 
stainless steel cleaner.

GRILL RACK

The easiest way to clean the grill is 
immediately after cooking is completed 
and after turning off the flame. Wear a 
barbeque mitt to protect your hand from 
the heat and steam. Dip a brass bristle 
barbeque brush in tap water and scrub the 
hot grill. Dip the brush frequently in the 
bowl of water. Steam, created as water
contacts the hot grill, assists the cleaning 
process by softening any food particles. 
The food particles will fall and burn. If the 
grill is allowed to cool before cleaning, 
cleaning will be more difficult.

ENSURE THAT THE GAS SUPPLY AND 
THE KNOBS ARE IN THE “OFF”
POSITION. 

GRILL BURNERS

Extreme care should be taken when 
removing a burner as it must be correctly 
centered on the orifice before any attempt 
is made to relight the grill (Please refer to 
page 26). Frequency of cleaning will 
depend on how often you use the grill. 

MAIN GRILL BURNER CLEANING

Ensure the gas supply is off and the knobs 
are in the “OFF” position. Make sure the grill 
is cool. Clean the exterior of the burner with a 
wire brush. Clear stubborn scale with a metal 
scraper. Clear any clogged ports with a 
straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden 
toothpick as it may break off and clog the port. 
Please note if insects or other obstructions 
are blocking the flow of gas through the 
burner, and if so you will need to call our 
customer service line.

GREASE TRAY CLEANING

:

The grease tray should be emptied and wiped 
down periodically and washing a mild 
detergent and warm water solution. A small 
amount of sand or cat litter may be placed in 
bottom of grease tray to absorb the grease. 
Check the grease tray frequently, don’t allow 
excess grease to accumulate and overflow 
out of the grease tray.

BURNER CLEANING:

1.

Turn off the gas supply, and make sure 
all the knobs are in the “OFF” position.

2.

Wait for the grill to cool. and clean the 
exterior of the burner with a wire brush.  
Use a metal scraper to remove 
stubborn stains.

3.

Clear clogged port with a straightened 
paper clip.  Never use a wooden 
toothpick as it may break off and clog 
the port

4.

If insects or other obstructions are 
blocking the flow of gas through the 
burner, call customer service at 1-800–
913-8999.
