Care and Maintenance
To assure safe and proper maintenance, we recommend you follow these directions carefully.
Clean internal parts of the grill regularly as determined by the amount of use and foods cooked. The entire grill
should be cleaned at least once a year.
In addition, keep the area around your grill or cart clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
Cooking Grates
Use a solution equal parts detergent and hot water just as
you would for any cooking equipment. A stiff brush may
also be helpful in removing grime and food deposits.
Hood and Body
Wipe the inside hood and body with detergent and hot
water. The external surfaces may be cleaned in the
same fashion. Wipe all area dry before storing.
Storage
For your safety, make sure unit is cool and wood and
charcoal embers completely extinguished before
storing.
Drip Pan
The full width drip pan will collect grease from the main
grill area. The pan should be cleaned after every use to
avoid the possibility of a grease fire. Be sure to allow the
drip pan to cool prior to cleaning. You may clean the drip
pan with a solution of warm soapy water. Make sure to
rinse thoroughly to avoid staining.
Care of Stainless Steel
Do NOT use wire wool pads, scrappers, harsh abrasive,
scoring materials, bleaches, or harsh cleaners on your
cart or grill, or allow salt and vinegar mixtures to remain
in contact for a long period of time. This will cause
scratching, scoring, rusting and pitting.
We recommend that you clean stainless steel
components with a cleaner that is approved for stainless
steel and only clean when the grill is cool and in indirect
light. Never use steel wool.
Covering Your Cart or Grill
When not in use and after cooling, cover your cart or grill
with our full length, zippered side canvas cover. (See
your local Cal Flame dealer for details.) The cover will
help protect your cart or grill from detrimental effects of
weather and environmental pollutants. Never put a cover
on a hot grill. Allow the grill to cool before covering.
After Use Care
The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after
cooking is completed and after turning off the flame.
Scrub the grill rack with a brass bristle barbecue
•
brush and hot soapy water.
Wipe the grill with a damp soapy cloth and rinse with
•
warm/hot, clean water. For more tenacious deposits,
including oil, grease and water-borne deposits, use
a multipurpose cream cleanser and apply with a
soft, damp cloth.
Dry with a soft, dry, clean towel if preferred.
•
Be sure appliance is off and all parts are cool before
•
handling or cleaning. This is to avoid damage and
possible burns.
To prevent staining or discoloration, clean appliance
•
after each use.
If a part is removed, be sure it is correctly replaced.
•
Warning
NEVER
cover the entire cooking or grill surface with griddles or pans. Overheating will occur and the grill will not
perform properly when heat is trapped below the cooking surface.
CAUTION:
NEVER spray water on a hot unit.
