any part of this gas grill. Do not use a self-cleaning oven to clean cooking grids or any other parts of
the gas grill. Barbecue sauce and salt can be corrosive and will cause rapid deterioration of the gas grill
components unless cleaned regularly.
Note: Stainless steel tends to oxidize or stain in the presence of chlorides and sulfides, particularly in
coastal areas and other harsh environments, such as the warm, highly humid atmosphere around pools
and hot tubs. These stains could be perceived as rust, but can be easily removed or prevented. To provide
stain prevention and removal, wash all stainless steel and chrome surfaces every 3-4 weeks or as often as
required with fresh water and/or stainless steel cleaner.
Grids And Warming Rack: The grids and warming rack are best cleaned with a brass wire brush during
the pre-heating period. Steel wool can be used for stubborn stains. It is normal that stainless grids (if
equipped) will discolor permanently from regular usage due to the high temperature of the cooking
surface.
Cast Iron Cooking Grids: The cast iron cooking grids supplied with your new grill offer superior heat
retention and distribution. By regularly seasoning your grids you are adding a protective coating, which
will aid in resisting corrosion and increase your grids non-stick capabilities.
First Time Use: Wash the cooking grids by hand with mild dish soap and water to remove any residue
from the manufacturing process (never wash in a dish washer). Rinse thoroughly with hot water and dry
completely with a soft cloth. This is important to avoid moisture from entering the cast iron.
Seasoning: Using a soft cloth, spread VEGETABLE SHORTENING over the entire grid surface ensuring
all grooves and corners are covered. Do not use salted fats such as butter or margarine. Pre-heat your
grill for 15 minutes, then place the seasoned cooking grids in the grill. Turn the burner control knobs to
medium with the lid closed. allow the cooking grids to heat for approximately one-half hour. Turn all the
burners to the "OFF" position and turn the gas off at the source. Let the cooking grids stand until cool.
This procedure should be repeated several times throughout the season, although it is not required for
daily use (follow daily usage procedure below).
Daily Usage: Before pre-heating, and cleaning with a brass wire grill brush, coat the entire top surface of
the cooking grids with VEGETaBLE SHORTENING. Pre-heat the grill and then brush away any unwanted
residue with a brass wire brush.
Stainless Steel Cooking Grids: (upgrade kit available - see replacement parts list). Stainless steel cooking
grids are durable and corrosion resistant. They require less seasoning and maintenance than cast iron
cooking grids. It is recommended that you follow the daily usage procedure listed above although you
may find pre-heating and cleaning your grids with a wire brush is sufficient for your grilling needs.
Control Panel: The control panel text is printed directly on the stainless steel and with proper maintenance
will remain dark and legible. To clean the panel, use only warm soapy water. Never apply abrasive cleaners
on any stainless surfaces, especially the printed portion of the control panel or the printing will gradually
rub off.
Cleaning Inside The Gas Grill: Remove the cooking grids. Use a brass wire brush to clean loose debris from
the casting sides and underneath the lid. Scrape the sear plates with a putty knife or scraper, and use a
wire brush to remove the ash. Remove the sear plates and brush debris from the burners with the brass
wire brush. Sweep all debris from inside the gas grill into the drip pan.
!
WARNING!
Drip Pan: Clean the drip pan frequently (every 4 – 5 uses or as often as required) to avoid grease buildup.
Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located beneath the gas grill and accumulate
in the disposable grease tray below the drip pan. To access the disposable grease tray or to clean the
drip pan, slide the drip pan free of the grill. Never line the drip pan with aluminum foil, sand or any other
material as this could prevent the grease from flowing properly. The pan should be scraped out with a
putty knife or scraper. Replace the disposable grease tray every 2 – 4 weeks, depending on gas grill usage.
