EXTERIOR STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
Weathering and high heat can cause the stainless steel
grill lid to turn tan in color. This is not rust and is not a
product defect. Machine oils used to manufacture stainless
steel, cooking oils, and a dirty grill lid can also encourage
discoloration if the lid is not cleaned prior to use. After
every use (after your grill has cooled down), clean the grill’s
exterior:
1. Shut o the gas supply at the source and disconnect
the gas line from the gas valve manifold. Protect the
gas line connector.
2. Use a stainless steel cleaner and a soft cloth to clean
the inside and outside of your grill lid. Make sure that
to remove all food particles, sauces, or marinades as
these can be highly acidic and damaging to stainless
surfaces. Never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers.
TIP: Routine cleaning to remove dirt, grease, and oils will
help prevent discoloration.
EXTERIOR POWDER COATED SURFACES
Wipe your grill down after each use. Use warm soapy
water to cut the grease. Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive
cleansers or abrasive cleaning pads on powder coated
surfaces.
BURNER TUBES AND BURNER PORTS
To reduce the chance of a ashback re you must clean
the burner tubes before initial use, at least once a month
in the summer and fall (whenever spiders are active in your
area), and if your grill has not been used for an extended
period of time.
1. Turn all the control knobs to OFF.
