Proper care and maintenance will keep your grill in top
operating condition and prolong its life. Follow these
cleaning procedures on a timely basis and your grill will
stay clean and operate with minimum effort.
CAUTION:
Be sure your grill is OFF and cool before cleaning.
Cleaning The Cooking Grids
Before initial use, and periodically, wash your Cooking
Grids in a mild soap and warm water solution. You
can use a wash cloth or vegetable brush to clean your
Cooking Grids.
Cleaning The Savor Plates
®
Periodically you should wash the Savor Plates
®
in a
soap and warm water solution. Use a vegetable brush
to remove stubborn burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the
Savor Plates
®
thoroughly before you reinstall them
into the cooking bowl.
Cleaning The Grease Tray and Receptacle
To reduce the chance of fire, the Grease Draining Tray
and Grease Receptacle (some models) should be
visually inspected before each grill use. Remove any
grease and wash Grease Tray and Receptacle with a
mild soap and warm water solution.
Cleaning the Inside of the Grill Lid
Grease can have a tendency to build up on the inside
of the Grill Lid and could drip onto deck or patio when
the lid is opened. Visually inspect the inside of the
Grill Lid before each grill use. Remove any grease
and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution.
Annual Cleaning of The Grill Interior
Burning-off excess food after every cookout will keep it
ready for instant use. However,at least every 3 months
you must give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to
minimize your risk of grease fire and keep the grill in
top shape. Follow these steps:
Turn all Burner Valves to the full OFF position.
Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position.
Disconnect the regulator from the gas tank. Inspect the
hose with regulator assembly for cracking, cuts or any
other damage, and replace as neccessary. Refer to the
Parts List in this Operator's Manual.
Remove and clean the Savor Plates
®
, Cooking Grids
and Grill Burners.
Cover each Gas Valve Orifice with aluminum foil.
Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a fiber
pad or nylon brush and wash with a mild soap and
warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
Remove aluminum foil from Orifices and check each
Orifice for obstruction.
Check each Spark Electrode, adjusting as needed.
The space between the Spark Electrode Tip and
Spark Receiver should be approximately 3/16".
Replace the Burners and adjust the Gas
Collector Box. The edge of the collector box should
be overlapping the Burner Port.
Replace Savor Plates
®
and Cooking Grids.
Reconnect the gas source and observe the Burner
flame for correct operation.
Cleaning Exterior Surfaces:
Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, we
suggest you wash your grill using a mild soap and
warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or
sponge for this process. Do not use a stiff wire or
brass brush. These will scratch stainless steel and
chip painted surfaces (varies by model) during the
cleaning process.

Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel Surfaces:
Weathering and extreme heat can cause exterior
stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color.
Machine oils used in the manufacturing process
of stainless steel can also cause this tanning
color. After removing any protective PVC film from
the Control Panel, use a Stainless Steel Cleaner to
polish the stainless steel surfaces of your grill.
Never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers because
they will scratch and damage your grill. Follow
these steps for the best results.
Turn the LP Gas tank valve (clockwise) to the full
OFF position. Disconnect the regulator and hose
assembly from LP Gas tank. Cover exposed gas
fitting with aluminum foil.
Remove dirt or grease using a soft cloth and
polish stainless surfaces. W ipe with a soft cloth.
Remove aluminum foil from exposed gas fitting
and allow grill to air dry before attaching the
regulator and hose to your LP Gas tank.
