STAINLESS STEEL NEEDS TO BE CLEANED?!?
ABSOLUTELY!
Stainless steels need to be cleaned for aesthetic
considerations and to preserve corrosion
resistance. Stainless steel is protected from
corrosion by a thin layer of chromium oxide.
Oxygen from the atmosphere combines with
the chromium in the stainless steel to form this
passive chromium oxide film that protects from
further corrosion. Any contamination of the
surface by dirt, or other material, hinders
this passivation process and traps corrosive
agents reducing corrosion protection. Thus,
routine cleaning is necessary to preserve the
appearance and integrity of the surface.
• To Adjust the Burner to a Low Seing:
• Make sure the grill is cool
• Remove the racks so you can see the
flames while adjusting the burners
• Light the burner and allow it to preheat on
high for 3 minutes
• Turn the burner to “LOW”
• Pull off the control knob
• Use a flat head screw driver and adjust the
“gold flathead screw” in the valve to the
proper flame height

STAINLESS STEEL MAINTENANCE
When removing stubborn stains:
• Do not use metallic abrasives and always
rub in the direction of the grain
• Some household cleaning products are
not suitable for stainless steel; be sure to
read the label before using on the grill
• Always use the mildest cleaning solution
first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain
• Specks of grease may gather in the grain
of the stainless steel and bake on to the
surface, giving the appearance of rust
• To remove these baked-on foods use a fine
to medium grit non-metallic abrasive pad
(Scotch Brite is good) in conjunction with a
stainless-steel cleaner
• Solutions used for cleaning concrete and
masonry can be very corrosive and will
‘aack’ stainless steel
• Be sure your Summerset products are well
protected before using these products
Aer each use wipe down the exterior of the grill to
remove grease and splaers. Use a commercially
available stainless-steel cleaner to clean and
polish the exterior surfaces. Doing these things
• Burn off excess food debris and marinades
for 15 minutes aer cooking
• Once the unit is cool, turn over the burner
covers and burn the top side (the burner
covers are reversible and are able to
be mounted upside down for cleaning
purposes)
• Use an approved stainless-steel oven
cleaner to remove grease build up
• Routinely have a professional barbecue
cleaning company detail the barbecue for
best results and longevity

IMPORTANT NOTE: FOR LOCATIONS NEAR
COASTAL AREAS AND POOLS
#304 stainless steel materials used in the
construction of your Summerset Professional Grill
are highly rust resistant, however, chlorine in the
air from swimming pools or the salt from sea air
may cause surface rust to appear and even create
some piing if le on the product. Here are a few
tips to avoid this:
• Regularly wipe down the exterior surfaces
with a damp cloth (micro fiber towels work
well)
• Allow the surfaces to dry before installing
the cover Do not cover a damp grill
• In extreme environments apply a rust
inhibitor which leaves a microscopic
protective layer on the grill
• For seasonal storage use the product
referred to above, ensure the grill is
dry, then cover and secure the cover to
minimize the amount of damp air geing
to the surfaces
on a regular basis minimizes the amount of effort
required
Aer your first use, certain areas of the grill may
discolor from the intense heat given off by the
burners - this is normal and cannot be cleaned
off. For light and heavy food stains there are many
different stainless-steel cleaners available.
