Important Reminders
• Stainless steel resists most
food stains and pit marks
providing the surface is kept
clean and protected.
• Never allow food stains or
salt to remain on stainless
steel for any length of time.
• Rub lightly in the direction
of polish lines.
• Chlorine
or
chlorine
compounds
in
cleaners are corrosive to
stainless steel. Check
ingredients on label.
• The grates are heavy; use
care when lifting. Place on
a protected surface.
• Blisters/ crazing/ chips are
common due to the extreme
temperatures on grate
fingers
and
temperature changes.
• Acidic and sugar-laden spills
deteriorate the enamel.
Remove soil immediately.
• Abrasive cleaners, used too
vigorously or too often can
eventually mar the enamel.
• Empty grease tray after
each use.
• Remove tray after grease
has cooled. Be careful not
to fill it so full that tipping to
remove it spills the grease.
