Clean the cooking grates with hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. You may prefer to coat the

cooking grates lightly with cooking oil or cooking spray.

To clean the inside and outside of the grill body, simply use a damp cloth.

Spray-washing with a water hose is not recommended. Moisture should be wiped away and not

allowed to stand inside or on top of the unit. Once cleaned, you may prefer to lightly coat the

interior of the grill body with cooking oil or cooking spray.

If rust is present on the exterior surface of the unit, clean the area with steel wool or emery cloth and

use heavy-duty, heat-resistant paint.

NEVER apply additional paint to the interior of the unit. If rust is present on the interior of the grill,

clean it thoroughly with steel wool or emery cloth and lightly coat the area with cooking oil or cooking

spray to help minimize recurring rust.

To protect your unit from weather conditions, always keep it covered while not in use.
