CARE and MAINTENANCE
If hot soapy water, vinegar, scouring powder, steel wool or
metal scouring pads are used to clean the griddle,
it must be
reseasoned
. Follow the directions on page 14 to reseason the
griddle.
Clean the grill immediately after cooking. Turn off the burn-
er. To protect your hand from steam and heat, wear a barbe-
cue mitt. Scrub the grill by dipping a brass bristle barbecue
brush frequently into a bowl of water. The steam created
softens the food particles and assists the cleaning process.
The food particles will drop into the drip tray or into the
radiant tray holding the briquettes. Be sure to clean the
drain tube, drip tray and liner after they have cooled. Follow
directions above.
The Radiant Tray and briquettes, should be removed peri-
odically (when cool) and shaken over a layer of newspaper,
which can be thrown away.
These are plastic and can be cleaned in hot, soapy water. To
remove the knobs from the control panel, grasp the knob
and pull straight back towards you and away from the grill.
Wash, do not soak. Rinse and dry thoroughly. It is impor-
tant to replace these knobs on the correct gas valve, on the
control panel.
The cooktop and grill control knobs are similar, the cook-
top knobs have a setting for “Simmer”, the grill does not.
The oven and griddle control knobs are similar, they both
have temperatures on them, oven knob has a “Broil” set-
ting, the griddle does not.
This is made of stainless steel. Use the mildest cleaning pro-
cedure first. Hot soapy water, rinse and dry. If the panel has
food soil remaining, try a general kitchen cleaner, such as
Fantastik
®,
Simple Green
®
or Formula 409
®
. For hard to
clean soil use a stainless steel cleaner such as, Bon-Ami,
Cameo
®
, or Bar Keepers Friend. Apply cleaner with a
damp sponge, rinse thoroughly and dry. Always scrub light-
ly in the direction of the grain.
Do not use a steel wool
pad
, it will scratch the surface. To touch up noticeable
scratches in the stainless steel,
sand very lightly
with dry
100 grit emery paper, rubbing
in the direction of the grain
.
After cleaning use a stainless steel polish, such as Stainless
Steel Magic
®
.
