The grill burner should be cleaned after
each use.
It can be cleaned with a non-
abrasive pad or in the dishwasher.
Rinse and dry thoroughly before using
again. For heavy soil, the burner
should be cleaned first with a soapy
steel wool pad, rinsed and dried. Then
it can be cleaned in a self-cleaning
oven for two hours.
NOTE:
Check to be sure all burner ports
are open. To open clogged ports, insert
a twist tie directly into each port.

The grates should be cleaned after
each use.
They can be cleaned with
detergent and a plastic scrubber, such
as Tuffy, or washed in the dishwasher
if burned on residue is first removed.
For heavy soil, grates can be soaked
in hot, soapy water mixed with
household ammonia.
Do not use metal brushes or abrasive
scouring pads or other scrubbers intended
to clean outdoor grills. These will remove
the finish as well as scratch the grates.
Do not clean in a self-cleaning oven or
use oven cleaners on the grates.
Grill Grates
The grill cover may be easily cleaned
with a damp cloth and mild detergent
or liquid household cleanser. Rinse and
dry thoroughly.
DO NOT clean in a dishwasher.
Grill Cover
Vent Grille:
The vent grille lifts off easily.
Wipe clean or wash in the sink with
mild household detergents.
NOTE:
On models with a white vent
grille, stubborn stains may be removed
by soaking the grille in a 50/50 mix of
bleach and water overnight. After
cleaning, rinse the grille thoroughly
and dry it before replacing.
Filter:
Turn off the fan before
removing. Turn the filter retainer
clip to remove the filter. The filter
is a permanent type and should be
cleaned when soiled. Clean in the
sink with warm water and liquid
dishwashing detergent.
IMPORTANT:
Do not operate the fan
without the filter. The filter should
always be placed at an angle. As you
face the front of the cooktop, the top
of the filter should rest against the
left side of the vent opening and the
bottom of the filter should rest against
the right side of the ventilation
chamber at the bottom. If the filter
is flat against the fan wall, ventilation
effectiveness is reduced.
Ventilation Chamber:
This area, which
houses the filter, should be cleaned
in the event of spills or whenever it
becomes coated with a film of grease.
The ventilation chamber may be
cleaned with a paper towel, damp
cloth or sponge and a mild household
detergent or cleanser.
Vent Grille and Filter
When replacing the filter, make
sure it rests, at an angle, on the
supports in the vent opening.
Latch it in place.
