Bleaches:
Most common domestic bleaches & sterilizing solutions contain chlorine in the form of sodium
hypochlorite. If used in concentrated form, bleaches can attack the stainless steel, causing pitting of the
surface. They should always be used to the strengths prescribed by the manufacturer and should be
thoroughly rinsed off with clean water immediately after use. All cleaning agents containing hypochlorite
are unsuitable for long term contact with stainless steel and, even when used in the highly diluted form,
they can produce pitting under certain conditions.
Foodstuffs:
In general stainless steel is fully resistant to all foodstuffs in common use. Only in isolated cases, such
as when concentrated salt and vinegar mixtures are allowed to remain in contact with the steel for a long
period, can any surface marking result.
CARE & MAINTENANCE OF YOUR GRILL:
GRILL RACK:
The easiest way to clean the round wire grill racks is immediately after cooking is completed and after
turning off the flame. Wear a barbecue mitt to protect your hand from the heat and steam. Dip a brass
bristle barbecue brush in hot soapy water and scrub the hot grill rack. Dip the brush frequently in the
bowl of water. Steam, created as water contacts the hot grill, assists the cleaning process by softening
any food particles. The food particles will fall and burn. If the grill is allowed to cool before cleaning, then
cleaning will be more difficult.
The V-grate used for the IR burner will primarily self-
clean during the 5 minute IR burner cleaning period
(Rear IR-Burner cleaning below). After the grate has
cooled, remove it from the grill and brush off burned
debris.
STAINLESS STEEL:
The Grill is made from commercial quality type 304 non-rusting and non-magnetic stainless steel, and
the cleaning information shown on Page 22 should be followed.
DRIP TRAY:
The drip tray should be cleaned after every usage of the
grill. After allowing the grill to cool completely, remove the
drip tray by pulling it out from the grill until it stops, then
lifting the front edge about 45° to remove from grill.
Reinstall by placing rear of tray into guides, then lifting
front edge 45° to re-insert the tray. Slide completely into
the grill.
GRILL BURNERS:
Before removing the burners, make sure that the gas
supply is OFF and the control knobs are in the OFF
position. Allow grill to cool completely, then lift off the grill
racks and briquette trays. To remove burners, lift the rear
of the burner out of the bracket.
Angle the burner slightly to clear the igniter electrode and opening at the front of the grill. Slide burner
straight off the orifice tip. Great care should be used when installing a burner, as it must be correctly
centered and secured on the orifice before any attempt is made to relight the grill. The burner should lie
flat and not have any side-to-side movement. Frequency of cleaning will depend upon grill use.
NOTICE
NEVER CLEAN THE V-GRATE WITH
ANY TYPE OF LIQUID WHILE IT IS ON
THE GRILL. LIQUID CAN PERMA-
NENTLY DAMAGE THE IR-BURNER.
WARNING
DO NOT ALLOW EXCESS GREASE
OR LIQUIDS TO ACCUMULATE IN
THE DRIP TRAY AS THIS WILL CRE-
ATE A FIRE HAZARD.
WARNING
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE
DRIP TRAY DURING USE OR WHILE
IT IS HOT AFTER USING THE GRILL.
