Cleaning the easyToUCH™ controller
•
Select lock icon
on the panel, to temporarily lock
the touch screen for fifteen (15) seconds.
•
Apply food safe cleaner to soft cloth or sponge, not
directly on controller. Wipe controller and dry with a soft
clean cloth.
•
Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads or
abrasive paper towels to clean the controller, as bristles
will scratch the controller surface.
Cleaning the Stainless Steel Panels
•
Turn-Off-Power Switch and unplug when cleaning the
side panels or front panel of the grill.
•
Turn-Off-Power Switch and disconnect all power plugs
before cleaning back panel. Refrain from touching
anything electrical when you’ve got wet hands or bare
feet.
•
Once the unit has cooled external stainless steel panels
should be cleaned using a mild detergent and/or a
food-safe liquid cleaner designed to clean stainless
steel, a soft cloth and hot water.
•
If it is necessary to use a nonmetallic scouring pad,
always rub in the direction of the grain in the metal to
prevent scratching.
• Warning
: Do not remove any panel for cleaning.
•
Wash a small area at a time and rinse the washed area
with a clean sponge dipped into a disinfectant. Wipe dry
with a soft clean cloth.
•
Do not spray chemicals into any openings, such as
louvers on the front or rear vent panels. Doing so
can damage critical components, resulting in a non-
warranty service call.
•
Keep water and/or cleaning solution away from the
front main power switch and power cords. Do not spray
any solution to these parts.
•
The grill may be secured in the grill bay by using two
anchors that lock onto the front casters. Reattach all
safety clips and restraining cables (gas models) before
completing the cleaning.
Cleaning During Operation
1. After each product load is removed, use a grill scraper
to scrape grease on lower grill plate from front to back
only. Do not scrape left to right across the lower grill
plate with the grill scraper.
2. Use a grill squeegee to clean release material sheet on
upper platen in a downward motion. Do not press hard
against the release material sheet to prevent scratching
or tearing.
3. Push the grease to the rear of the grill, or pull it to
the front trough. Then, squeegee the grease into the
buckets on either side. Do not use the scraper for this
step.
4. Use a clean, damp cloth to clean back splash and bull
nose areas as needed during operation.
NOTE: To increase life of release material sheets, wipe them
down with a folded clean, damp cloth at least four times
during each hour of operation.
