GRANITE MAINTENANCE
Outdoors can be very harsh on the granite of your grill. There are things visible that can affect the
granite like dirt and pollen and things not visible like UV Rays. Please follow these instructions to
preserve the granites natural beauty:
- Granite is a hard, non-porous natural stone and is relatively not affected by harsh chemicals
however it is recommended to use a neutral cleaner or stone soap (available in hardware stores or
from a stone dealer), or a mild dishwashing liquid and warm water.
- Use a soft, clean cloth to clean the granite. Rinse after washing with the soap solution and dry with
a soft, clean cloth.
- Blot up spills immediately, before they penetrate the surface.
- Clean as often as needed to keep grime and dirt removed.
- Granite must be sealed to prevent or minimize staining and/or fading. Leaving granite unsealed
may make it difcult to remove stains in the future. It is recommended to seal your granite outdoors
every 4-6 months depending on climate conditions.
GENERAL CLEANING
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the grill is cool. Always follow label
instructions on cleaning products.
For routine cleaning, wash with soap and water using a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse with clean water
and dry at once with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid spots and streaks.
To avoid scratching the surface, do not use steel wool to clean the grill.
Use the vinyl grill cover to protect nish from weather.
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of debris.
NOTE: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean.
Important: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered. Rain
water can collect inside of the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered. If the drip
tray is not cleaned after use and the grill is left uncovered, the drip tray will ll with water
causing grease and water to spill into the grill cart. We recommend cleaning and storing the
drip tray after every use.
COOKING GRATES
The cooking grates can be cleaned immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the
grill. Wear a barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates with a damp cloth. If the grill is allowed
to cool down, cleaning the grates will be easier if removed from the grill and cleaned with a mild
detergent.
