Care & Maintenance
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray located below the grill, inside the cart, should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of
debris.
NOTE: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean.
Important: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered (cover sold
separately). Rain water can collect inside the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered. If the drip
tray is not cleaned after use and the grill is left uncovered, the drip tray will fill with water causing grease
and water to spill into the grill cart. We recommend cleaning and storing the drip tray after every use.
COOKING GRATES
The cooking grates can be cleaned immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the grill. Wear a
barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates with a damp cloth. If the grill is allowed to cool down, cleaning the
grates will be easier if removed from the grill and cleaned with a mild detergent.
STAINLESS STEEL
After initial usage, areas of the grill may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners. This is normal.
Purchase a mild stainless steel cleaner and rub in the direction of the grain of the metal. Specks of grease can
gather on the surface of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give a worn appearance. For removal,
use a non-abrasive oven cleaner in conjunction with a stainless cleaner.
NOTE: Always scrub in the direction of the grain.
IGNITER ACCESS (UNDER MAIN
BURNER)
To remove igniter, unscrew igniter push button and
locking nut from front panel of the main burner and
igniter will fall out through the bottom.
