RILL
STAINLESS STEEL
The
DELSOL
grill is made of all stainless steel. It is non-rusting and non-magnetic.
Never
clean the stainless steel when it is hot. After the initial grilling use, certain areas of the grill may discolor.
This is a normal discoloration caused by the intense heat given off by the burners. Specks of grease can
gather on the surface of the stainless steel and get baked-on. These can be removed by using a mild
abrasive pad (like Scotch Brite) with a stainless steel cleaner. Use the mildest cleaner and always scrub in
the direction of the grain.
Do not use steel wool to clean the grill. Do not use abrasives on the polished highlights. Be extra
careful when cleaning around the highlights. Metal polisher or mild chrome cleaner can be used to bring
back the luster on highlights. To touch-up minor scratches in the stainless steel, sand the affected surface
very lightly, with 100-dry grit emery sandpaper in the direction of the grain.
CERAMIC BRIQUETTE TRAY
It is not necessary to remove and clean the briquettes
from the tray after every grilling. They will burn clean during
the next cooking operation
.
Periodically, the briquette trays need to be cleaned.
Remove them from the grill, shake any loose debris free and
wipe the trays clean. Do not handle a hot briquette tray with
bare hands.
REPLACING BRIQUETTE TRAYS
1)
Remove the trim that holds the briquettes.
2)
Remove the old briquettes and place the new briquettes
in the same location as the old ones.
3)
Replace the trim that holds briquettes.
COOKING GRATES
The easiest way to clean the stainless steel grates is to
scrub them with a barbeque brush immediately after cooking is
completed and the flame is turned off.
Wear a barbeque mitt to protect your hands from the heat
and steam. Dip a brass bristle barbeque brush in tap water and
scrub the hot grill. Dip the brush frequently in tap water. Steam,
created as water comes in contact with the hot grill, helps loosen
food particles stuck in the grill. These food particles will either
get burned into the briquettes or fall into the cleaning pan.
Cleaning of the grill will be longer and more difficult if the grill
racks are allowed to cool before cleaning. When cleaning the
grates, make sure not to hit the rotisserie burner. Never spray
water on a hot grill.
