GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Do not mistake brown and black build up of grease and
smoke for paint. The inside of the hood is not painted and
should never be painted. When cleaning the inside of the
hood and grill bottom, use a strong solution of detergent
and water with a scrub brush to clean. Rinse thoroughly and
allow to air dry. NEVER use a caustic grill cleaner on painted
or cooking surfaces.
All plastic parts, stainless-steel and painted surfaces, should
be cleaned with warm soapy water and wiped dry. Cook-
ing surfaces should be cleaned with a bristle brush only.
Check that no loose bristles remain on the cooking grates
prior to using.
Cooking grates:
Clean before and after each use with a stiff wire brush.
Pizza stone:
Clean the pizza stone only after it has cooled. Do not
clean with detergent. Using a plastic scraper, remove
baked-on food and rinse the pizza stone if needed.
STORING THE GRILL
See Figure 21.
Store in dry location. If storing outdoors, allow the grill
to cool completely, and cover with one of the variety of
grill covers offered by manufacturers.
