CLEANING
Begin cleaning procedure by using the operating procedures within your organization, or follow
the steps below:
1. If particles adhere to the cooking surface during the day, scrape them off with a spatula.
NOTE:
It is best not to let food cook onto the grill, as food build-up on the grill will increase
sticking and smoking. In addition, carbon may build up on the grill surface and reduce the
cooking efficiency.
CARBON BUILDUP:
A black matter that forms on or near the cooking surface. Generally
this is a combination of: releasing agents, oils, food particles etc. that has cooked itself to the
surface. After a period of time without cleaning, this will reduce performance and material may
start flaking off. When that happens, follow the "Carbon Cleaning" procedures.
2. At the end of the day, wipe down all surfaces with a warm, damp cloth and mild detergent,
then dry.

When carbon build up occurs, use a carbon removal agent according to the instructions provided
with the cleaner. When this process is complete, you must re-season the grill according to your
company/corporate guidelines, or the seasoning instructions in this manual.
