Cleaning of the appliance:

spilled onto the unit during cooking with mild soapy water on a rag and towel dry. Do not
immerse the burner/gas train assembly components into water as this will cause rust. Do not clean

TIPS FOR CARING FOR POTS
It is not necessary to season aluminum or stainless pots before cooking with them. Wash with a liquid
dish washing detergent and towel dry. After cooking, wash pots in hot, sudsy detergent. Do not
submerge or remove wire assembly. If grease or black soot has cooked to the outside of the pot while
cooking with your outdoor cooker, scrub the outside of the pot with a steel wool scouring pad.
DO NOT SPRAY OVEN CLEANER OR ANY CHEMICAL CLEANER ON POTS TO REMOVE
GREASE OR SOOT. OVEN/CHEMICAL CLEANERS WILL CAUSE THE FINISH TO BECOME DULL
OR CAUSE DAMAGE TO WIRE ASSEMBLY.
If food remains stuck in the pan after cooking, add hot water and let soak. Then scrub the pan with soap
and steel wool to loosen the food.
If hard water causes darkening or the interior of your pot, fill to the level of the darkened area with a
water and cream of tartar or vinegar solution (mixed with the concentration of three cups of water to
one tablespoon cream of tartar, or vinegar). Boil five to ten minutes.
NEVER PLACE AN EMPTY POT ON A LIT COOKER. A hole will be burned in the bottom of the pot.
Discoloration, scratching, and dimpling may occur with the use of pots on outdoor cookers. This does
not affect the performance of the pot.
Do not store used oil inside your pot. The salt used in cooking can corrode the pot causing
the pot to leak. Wash the pot after each use with hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
DO NOT REMOVE TEMPERATURE PROBE OR WIRE ASSEMBLY WHILE ATTEMPTING TO
CLEAN THE POT. ALWAYS FOLLOW THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS TO PROPERLY CLEAN AND
MAINTAIN YOUR POT’S PERFORMANCE AND APPEARANCE.
DAMAGE TO THE COOKER UNIT OR POT CAUSED BY FAILURE TO FOLLOW MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.
