CLEANING INTERIOR OF GRILL:
• We recommend cleaning off food residue immediately after cooking by gently scrubbing grates with
wire bristle brush and then turning burners to “HIGH” for approximately 5 minutes.
The heat from the burners will burn off most food/grease residue from grates & heat tents and turn it
to an ash like substance which will fall to the bottom of the firebox or grease tray. After the grill cools
(approximately 30 minutes) remove grates and heat tents and brush the ash and any grease out of
the firebox. Clean and replace grease cup. Inspect the heat tents for damage or deterioration before
reinstalling in the grill.
• Wash the grates and heat tents with a mild detergent and rinse with hot water periodically if desired.
• Porcelain surfaces. Because of glass-like composition, most residue can be wiped away with a solution
of baking soda and water or specially formulated cleaner. Use non-abrasive scouring powder such as
baking soda forstubborn stains.
MAINTAINING EXTERIOR OF GRILL:
• To protect your grill from excessive rust, the unit must be kept clean and covered at all times when not
in use.
• For painted surfaces, wash with mild detergent and non-abrasive cleaner or warm soapy water.
• For plastic and rubber parts, wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. Do not use citrisol, abrasive
cleaners, grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.
BURNER CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE:
• Visually check burner flames for proper operation (see pictorial in “Burner Assembly/Maintenance”
under Proper Care and Maintenance). Spiders or other insects can nest in the burner causing gas
blockage.
• For safe grilling and peak performance of your grill, perform these checks at least twice per year or after
extended periods of storage.
