Clean greasy parts with a household grease solvent such as household
ammonia and water, if necessary, a soap filled steel wool pad can be
used on the grill frame shield, grill burner, and grill heat deflector.
After using the grill, always remove the drip pan located below it by
pulling the drip pan toward you. The drip pan needs to be cleaned
after each use of the griddle. Cooked-off grease will drain from the
griddle through the drain tube and accumulate in the drip pan. Wash
in hot soapy water or with an antibacterial cleaner. The drip pan needs
to be cleaned after each use. If grease is permitted to accumulate, fire
hazard could occur, since the grill burners are directly above the pan.
