3. COOKING GRID CLEANING:
If the grids are heavily soiled, turn your main burners on
high for 10 minutes to burn off excess deposits. (Do NOT
run the rotisserie burner at this time).
After each grilling session, clean the cooking grids. Keep the cook surface from having excess residue
buildup.
For final cleaning, the cooking surface can be washed with hot soapy water, utilizing a Scotch Brite
scouring pad for stubborn deposits.
4. EXTERIOR CLEANING:
Use mild dish soap and hot water to clean the outside of the grill.
Do not use any abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, strong degreasers etc., on the exterior of this grill; this
will scratch the stainless finish.
If using the Jackson Stainless Steel Cleaner to remove any surface corrosion be sure to go with the grain
of the finish in order to not make swirls in the stainless steel, this product is mildly abrasive and is should
be applied with a soft cloth.
Specks of grease can adhere to the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on; this will give the
appearance of rust. Use an abrasive pad with stainless steel cleaner to remove.
Sand heavy scratches lightly with 600 grit wet and dry sandpaper.
Always rinse with clean hot water.
Use a spray polish (wax) on stainless steel polish to add shine and help protect the exterior stainless steel
from surface contaminants and any corrosion.
5. INTERIOR CLEANING:
Remove the cooking grid, flame diffuser and the burner from the grill.
Remove excess residue using a brush, scraper and/or cleaning pad.
Spray inside the firebox with oven degreaser and let stand for 5 minutes.
Loosen up grease and food residues regularly.
Wash with soapy water, and rinse with clean hot water, then wipe dry.
Leave lid open to allow the grill to air dry completely.
6. MAIN BURNER CLEANING & MAINTENANCE:
Check to ensure that all gas knobs and valves are off.
Remover burners and inspect inner and outer surfaces for contamination and debris.
Clean the exterior burner surface with a stiff stainless steel grill brush.
Make sure all of the burner port holes are free of obstruction by using a large paperclip to poke the holes
out. This is
extremely important
to prolong the lifespan of the stainless steel burner.
Check inside each burner for insects and insect nest; clean out with a piece of stiff wire.
Clean mesh air inlets (shutters), at the inlet end of each burner.
