Exterior Cleaning
When cleaning your appliance, always scrub and polish in the direction of the stainless steel grain. Wipe down the exterior of the
appliance to remove any splatter or grease. Do not use harsh abrasives. Use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the exterior surface
for a polished look. To remove baked-on foods, use a fine to medium grit non- metallic abrasive pad with a stainless steel cleaner
to avoid specks of grease collecting in the grain causing the appearance of rust. Before installing the cover, always allow the
surface to dry. DO NOT cover a damp appliance.
Flame Tamers, Cooking Grids and Warming Racks
To clean (should clean after each use), turn the main burners on HIGH for 10-15 minutes with the hood closed. This allows any
food particles or grease drippings to burn away. Brush components with a stainless steel bristle brush to remove any remaining
charred materials.
Cast Stainless Steel Burner
The appliance must be completely cooled before proceeding. Make sure the gas supply is off and all control knobs are in the "OFF"
position. You must remove the cooking grids and flame tamer to expose the main burners in the appliance. On the bottom rear of
the burner are two cotter pins. Remove cotter pins. To remove burner, pull upwards and slide burner to the left of the appliance.
Repeat for each burner. To clean the burners, use a wire brush to clean the exterior of the burner. Free all clogged ports of
obstructions with a small metal object. Clean out any debris through the air shutter and inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is free
of any obstructions. Use a rod or pipe cleaner to remove any debris within the burner if necessary.
Drip Tray & Internal Cleaning
Warning: Due to the compact design of a portable grill, the drippings from cooking accumulate at a faster rate than a full sized
grill. The inner body of the grill should be cleaned before each use to eliminate the buildup of grease and potential for a grease
fire. Failure to do so may result in a fire or bodily injury.
Clean the drip tray after each use. Failure to do so could result in a fire. The tray is located underneath the grill body and can be
removed from the left hand side of the unit. Once the appliance has cooled completely, remove the tray by pulling it all the way
out until it comes free. Clean the tray with hot soapy water and re-install. If using an oven cleaning agent, be sure to carefully
follow the manufacturer's instructions to avoid damage to the stainless steel.
NOTE: Make sure the burner is properly placed after cleaning. It is very important to ensure the end of the burner is installed
appropriately onto the gas valve to ensure gas flows safely into the burner. Failure to meet these conditions can cause
