Grill Maintenance and Cleaning cont.
Cleaning the drip trays:
The drip tray should be cleaned after each use. After the grill is completely cool, remove the drip tray by
pulling it out until it stops, then lifting the front edge until the drip tray comes free.
Clean it with hot soapy water. Also, check the tray after rain. If you've left the grill uncovered, you may need
to remove the drip tray to drain the water from the tray.
Stainless Steel:
1. After each use wipe down the exterior of the gas appliance to remove grease, black soot and splatters.
2. Be sure to follow the cleaning instructions for keeping the grates and burners clean and ready for use.
3. Use a commercially available Stainless Steel cleaner to clean and polish the exterior surfaces.
Part of the appeal of the NewAge Grill is the fine grain finish. Always clean with the grain direction.
When removing stubborn stains:
•
Do not use metallic abrasives and always rub in the direction of the grain.
•
Some household cleaning products are not suitable for stainless steel; be sure to read the label before
using on your NewAge Grill.
•
Always use the mildest cleaning solution first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain. Specks of grease
may gather in the grain of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface, giving the appearance of rust.
To remove these baked-on foods use a fine to medium grit non-metallic abrasive pad (Scotch Brite is good)
in conjunction with a stainless steel cleaner.Always be sure to clean and polish with the direction of the
grain. Solutions used for cleaning concrete and masonry can be very corrosive and will cause corrosion,
pitting and discoloration on the stainless steel finish. Avoid these products coming into contact with the
NewAge Grill and Cabinets. If solution makes contact with cabinet, immediately rinse with water and wipe
down exterior of cabinet.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR LOCATIONS NEAR POOLS AND COASTAL AREAS:
The 304 stainless steel material used in the construction of a NewAge Grill is highly rust resistant,
however, chlorine in the air from swimming pools or the salt from sea air may cause surface rust to
appear and even create some pitting if left on the product.
Here are a few tips to avoid this:
•
Regularly wipe down the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth. Micro fiber cloths perform very
well.
•
Allow the surfaces to dry before installing the cover. Do not cover a damp grill.
•
In extreme environments apply a rust inhibitor which leaves a microscopic protective layer on
the grill. Products that provide a layer of vapor corrosion inhibitors (VpCI™) protect the surface
very well.
•
For seasonal storage use the product referred to above, ensure the grill is dry and then cover and
secure the cover to minimize the amount of damp air getting to the surfaces.
THE NEWAGE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER OCCASIONAL SURFACE RUST OR STAINING DUE TO
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
