CLEANING YOUR GRILL (Including Required Maintenance)
STAINLESS STEEL
Lynx products are known for their attractive appearance.
We achieve this by selecting only the fi nest grades of
stainless steel and applying exacting workmanship.
In order to maintain this attractive appearance over the life
of the grill it is important to take the following steps:
• After each use wipe down the exterior of the grill to
remove grease and splatters.
• Be sure to follow the cleaning instructions for keeping
the grates and burners clean and ready for use.
• Use a commercially available Stainless Steel cleaner* to
clean and polish the exterior surfaces.
Doing these things on a regular basis minimizes the
amount of e ort required.
Part of the appeal of your Lynx Grill is the fi ne grain fi nish.
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
your Lynx Grill.
• Always use the mildest cleaning solution fi rst, 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 fi ne 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 ‘attack’ stainless steel. Ensure
your Lynx products are well protected before you allow
the use of such chemicals near your grill.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR LOCATIONS NEAR POOLS AND
COASTAL AREAS:
The 304 stainless steel material used in the construction of
a Lynx Grill is 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 pitting if left
on the product.
Here are a few tips to avoid this:
• Regularly wipe down the exterior surfaces with a damp
cloth. (Micro fi ber cloths such perform very 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.
Products that provide a layer of vapor corrosion
inhibitors (VpCI™) protect the surface very well.
• For seasonal storage use the product referred to above,
ensure the grill is dry and then cover and secure the
cover to minimize the amount of damp air getting to the
surfaces.
THE LYNX LIMITED LIFE TIME WARRANTY PROVIDES
PROTECTION AGAINST RUST THROUGH OF PARTS THAT
RENDER THE PRODUCT INOPERATIVE. IT DOES NOT
COVER OCCASIONAL SURFACE RUST OR STAINING DUE
TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
After your fi rst use certain areas of the grill may discolor
from the intense heat given o by the burners - this is
normal and cannot be cleaned o .
For light and heavy food stains there are many di erent
stainless steel cleaners available.
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be cleaned after each use. After the
grill is completely cool, remove the drip trays by tilting
forward and up, lifting them out of place.
They can be wiped down with a paper towel and placed in
a dishwasher for cleaning.
