Proper care and maintenance will keep your grill in top operating condi-
tion and prolong its life. Follow these cleaning procedures on a timely
basis and your grill will stay clean and operate with minimum effort.
CAUTION: Be sure your grill is OFF, unplugged, and cool before
cleaning.
CLEANING THE GRILL PLATE & HOT PLATE
Before initial use and periodically after, wash the grill plate and hot plate
in a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or
vegetable brush to clean your grill plate and hot plate. Dry each thor-
oughly before reinstalling back in the grill.
CLEANING THE GREASE RECEPTACLE
To reduce the chance of fire, the grease receptacle must be visually
inspected before each grill use. Remove the grease receptacle from the
grill. Remove any grease and wash the grease receptacle with a mild
soap and warm water solution. Dry the receptacle thoroughly before
reinstalling.
CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE GRILL LID
Grease can build up on the inside of the lid. Visually inspect the inside of
the grill lid before each grill use. Unplug the unit and use a wet wash-
cloth to remove any grease. Leave the lid open and let the grill dry before
using it again.
CLEANING EXTERIOR PAINTED SURFACES
Before initial use and periodically thereafter, we suggest you spot clean
your grill's exterior using a mild soap and warm water solution. (Do not
immerse the grill or cord in water.) You can use a wash cloth or sponge
for this process. Do not use a stiff wire or brass brush. These will scratch
stainless steel and chip painted surfaces during the cleaning process.
Unplug the unit (grill must be completely cool) before cleaning exterior
surfaces. Let the unit completely dry before cooking.

CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE GRILL
NOTE: To aid cleaning, the inside of the grill may be lined with
aluminium foil.
Remove the cooking plate/s and reflectors (See: CLEANING
THE REFLECTORS). Cut a piece of aluminium foil 340 x 425 mm
and slide in under the heating elements. Push down to take the
form of the bottom of the grill. With your finger, push a hole into the
foil at the grease drain hole position to allow grease to flow into
the grease receptacle.
Remove the cooking plate and reflectors. Wipe the inside of the
grill clean with hot soapy water and a soft cloth. Be careful not to
damage the elements.
Dry with a clean cloth. To ensure completely dry, switch the grill
on with the hood down for 4 - 5 minutes.
CLEANING THE REFLECTORS
NOTE: Reflectors must be removed before cleaning.
After each use remove the heat reflectors and wash throughly to remove
all fat and food residues - an 'oven cleaner' may be used to remove
stubborn residues.
Do not use abrasive cleaners which can dull the surface.
Keeping the reflectors surface clean and bright will maintain the
cooking efficiency.
To remove the reflectors, first remove the cooking plate, then slide
the reflectors out - one from the front, one from the rear.
