CARE AND MAINTENANCE
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of debris.
NOTE: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean.
Important: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered. Rain
water can collect inside of the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered. If the drip tray is
not cleaned after use and the grill is left uncovered, the drip tray will fill with water causing
grease and water to spill into the grill cart. It is recommended to clean and store the drip tray
after every use.
COOKING GRATES
The cooking grates can be cleaned immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off
the grill. Wear a barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates with a damp cloth. If the grill is
allowed to cool down, cleaning the grates will be easier if removed from the grill and cleaned
with a mild detergent.
STAINLESS STEEL
After initial usage, areas of the grill may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners.
This is normal.
Purchase a mild stainless steel cleaner and rub in the direction of the grain of the metal. Specks
of grease can gather on the surface of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give a
worn appearance. For removal, use a non-abrasive oven cleaner in conjunction with a stainless
cleaner.
NOTE: Always scrub in the direction of the grain.
PORCELAIN PARTS
Certain parts of your grill have a porcelain coating. Porcelain is a glass-based product and is
highly durable to standard wear and tear. However, porcelain is sensitive to concussive blows,
which can create interlaced micro-
fractures or “spider
-
webs.” Please take care not to strike any
porcelain covered parts with solid objects, drop them, or create any other concussive blows.
These interlaced micro-fractures are common and may lead to minor chipping. Neither the
chipping nor the interlaced micro-fractures will adversely affect the performance of your grill and
are not covered under the warranty for porcelain parts.
