STAINLESS STEEL
The ProFire gas grill is made from non
-
rusting, non
-
magnetic, type 304 stainless steel. There are
many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning methods first,
scrubbing in the direction of the grain. To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless steel, sand
lightly with dry 100 grit emery paper or scotch bright pad in the direction of the grain. Specks of
grease can gather on the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface giving the appear-
ance of rust. To remove this grease buildup scrub with a strong degreaser in the direction of the
grain. IMPORTANT: Coat the outer surface of your grill with lemon oil or a Stainless Shine product
such as Sheila Shine. WD 40 also works well to coat the outer finish of your grill. Never clean your
grill with soap and water or degreaser without coating the outer surface of your grill when you’re fin-
ished.
COOKING GRIDS
The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after cooking is completed. Be sure the burners are
turned off and there are no flames before beginning. Wear a barbecue mitt to protect your hand from
the heat. Using a brass bristle barbecue brush, scrub the hot grids. If the grill is allowed to cool be-
fore cleaning, the cleaning process will be more difficult.
SIDE BURNER GRATES
The side burner grates are stainless steel. Do not attempt to clean a hot grate. When the grate cools
it may be wiped with hot, soapy water, then rinsed and wiped dry. Never immerse a hot grate in wa-
ter as the hot steam produced could cause burns.
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray will collect grease from the grill area and spills from the side burners. Do not attempt to
remove or clean until thoroughly cooled. To avoid grease fires or flare
-
ups, be sure to clean out the
grease often
.
GRILL BURNERS
The burners are constructed of stainless steel and should only require minimal maintenance. Howev-
er, they should be checked every 6 months and cleaned if needed.
1. Shut off gas supply and make sure the grill is cool before attempting to check the burners.
2. Remove the cooking grids, then lift out the flavor grid.
3. Remove the mounting screw holding the burner in place then lift the burner up and
forward so that the burner is pulled away from the valve. (See Page 12)
