Cleaning and Maintenance Instructions

Stainless Steel Grids
Operation

• Stainless steel cooking grids can be cleaned by preheating the grill and using a wire brush to remove residue.
• Stainless steel grids will permanently discolor from regular use because of high temperatures when grilling.

Infrared Side Burner

• Do not clean the ceramic tile with a wire brush.
• Do not use water or other liquids to clean the ceramic tile. An immediate change in temperature will cause cracking

Drip Pan

• Clean frequently to avoid grease build-up – approximately every 4-5 uses.

Control Panel

• ONLY use warm soapy water.
• Text is printed directly on the control panel and will gradually rub off if abrasive or stainless steel cleaners are used.
• Proper cleaning of the control panel will ensure the text remains dark and legible.

WARNING! A leak test must be performed annually and when any component of the gas train is replaced, or when the smell of gas is present.
WARNING! Never use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Sparks or flames will cause a fire, explosion, damage to property, serious physical injury, or death.
WARNING! Never grill food directly on the flame side burner. It is designed for use with pots and pans only.
WARNING! Always wear protective gloves and safety glasses when cleaning your grill.
WARNING! It is very important the valve/orifice enters the burner tube when reinstalling the burner after cleaning and before lighting your grill, or a fire or explosion could occur.
