CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Proper care and maintenance will keep your grill in top
operating condition 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 and cool before cleaning.
Cleaning The Cooking Grids
Before initial use, and periodically, wash your
Cooking Grids in a mild soap and warm water
solution. You can use a wash cloth or vegetable
brush to clean your Cooking Grids.
Cleaning The Savor Plates
Periodically you should wash the Savor Plates
soap and warm water solution. Use a vegetable brush
to remove stubborn burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the
®
Savor Plates thoroughly before you reinstall them
into the cooking bowl.
Cleaning The Grease Tray
To reduce the chance of fire, the Grease Draining
Tray should be visually inspected before each grill
use. Remove any grease and wash Grease Tray
with a mild soap and warm water solution.
Cleaning the Inside of the Grill Lid
Grease can have a tendency to build up on the
inside of the Grill Lid and could drip onto deck or
patio when the lid is opened. Visually inspect the
inside of the Grill Lid before each grill use. Remove
any grease and wash with a mild soap and warm
water solution.
Regular Cleaning of The Grill Interior
Burning-off excess food after every cookout will
keep it ready for instant use. However,at least every
3 months you must give the entire grill a thorough
cleaning to minimize your risk of grease fire and
keep the grill in top shape. Follow these steps:
Turn all Burner Valves to the full OFF position.
1.
Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position.
2.
Disconnect the regulator from the gas tank. Inspect
3.
the hose with regulator assembly for cracking, cuts
or any other damage, and replace as neccessary.
Refer to the Parts List in this Operator's Manual.
4.
Remove and clean the Savor Plates
Grids, Cooking Rack and Grill Burners.
Cover each Gas Valve Orifice with aluminum foil.
5.
6. Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a fiber
pad or nylon brush and wash with a mild soap and
warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
7. Remove aluminum foil from Orifices and check
each Orifice for obstruction.
8. Check each Spark Electrode, adjusting as needed.
The space between the Spark Electrode Tip and
Spark Receiver should be approximately 3/16".
9.
Replace the Burners and adjust the Gas
Collector Box. The edge of the collector box should
be overlapping the Burner Port.
10.
Replace Savor Plates
11.
Reconnect the gas source and observe the
Burner flame for correct operation.

Cleaning Exterior painted Surfaces:
Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, we
suggest you wash your grill using a mild soap
and warm water solution. 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 (varies by model)
during the cleaning process.
Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel Surfaces:
Routine care and maintenance is required to preserve
the appearance and corrosion resistance of stainless
steel. The fact is stainless steel can corrode, rust and
discolor under certain conditions. Rust is caused
when regular steel particles in the atmosphere
become attached to the stainless steel surface. Steel
particles can also become attached to your grill if you
use steel wool or stiff wire brushes to clean the grill
instead of non-abrasive cloth, sponge or nylon
cleaning tools. In coastal areas rust pits can develop
on stainless surfaces that cannot be fully removed.
Bleach and other chlorine based solutions used for
household and pool cleaning can also cause corro-
sion to stainless steel. Weathering, extreme heat,
smoke from cooking and machine oils used in the
manufacturing process of stainless steel can cause
stainless steel to turn tan in color. Although there are
many factors which can affect the surface appearance
of stainless steel, they do not affect the integrity of the
steel or the performance of the grill.
To help maintain the finish of stainless steel follow
these cleaning procedures for the best results:
1. After every use (after your grill has cooled down), wipe
stainless surfaces with a soft, soapy cloth or sponge
then rinse with water. Be sure to remove all food
particles, sauces or marinades from stainless steel
because these can be highly acidic and damaging to
stainless surfaces.
2. Never use abrasive cleaners, scrubbers or stiff wire
brushes of any type on your grill.
3.
Use a heat resistant Stainless Steel Cleaner and rub
or wipe in the direction of the stainless steel grain or
polish lines NOT against the grain.
