2. CLEANING OUTSIDE SURFACES:
DANGER! Turn the Main Power switch OFF (O)
and disconnect the power cord.
Use a disposable rag or cloth dampened with
warm, soapy water to wipe the grease from the
outside of the grill. DO NOT use oven cleaner,
abrasive cleansers, or abrasive cleaning pads
on the outside grill surfaces.
3. OUTSIDE STORAGE:
CAUTION! If the grill is stored outside during
the rainy season, care should be taken to ensure
that water does not get into the pellet hopper.
Wood pellets expand greatly when wet and will
jam your auger. Always cover your grill when not
in use with the Traeger Grill Cover. This custom-
t cover can be purchased at traegergrills.com.
4. CLEANING THE STAINLESS STEEL GRILL
GRATES:
CAUTION! Cleaning the grill grates works best
while they are still warm. Be careful not to burn
yourself. We recommend keeping a long-handled
cleaning brush near the grill. After removing your
food, give the grill grate a quick brushing. It takes
only a minute and it will be ready the next time
you want to use the grill.
5. CLEANING THE ASH FROM INSIDE AND
AROUND THE FIREPOT:
WARNING! Make sure that the grill is COLD
before cleaning the ash.
WARNING! Disposal of ashes should be done
only according to the following instructions.
Excess ash in the repot may cause your re
to go out. The repot should be inspected
occasionally and cleaned to remove the ash
buildup. Again, cleaning the ash from in and
around the repot should be done only when
the grill is COLD.
Remove the grill grates, grease drip tray, and
heat shield to provide access to the repot and
the interior of the grill. Much of the ash outside
of the repot can be removed from the grill with a
small metal replace shovel or other similar tool.
WARNING! A vacuum cleaner is the best way to
remove ashes from the repot, but this must be
done with extreme care to avoid the risk of re.
Again, cleaning the ash from the repot should
be done only when the grill is COLD.
A utility-type vacuum cleaner having a metal
collection canister without a bag would be best
for this task. However, almost any vacuum
cleaner will work safely if this procedure is
properly followed.
After ensuring that the ash in the repot is
COLD, vacuum the ash from the inside of
the repot.
a. If your vacuum cleaner is a bagless
model, empty any previously accumulated
debris from the collection chamber. Then
vacuum the ash from the inside of the
repot. Once the repot is clean, empty the
collection chamber into the metal container
described below without delay. Make sure
that there is no remaining ash residue left
in the collection chamber.
b. If your vacuum cleaner is a model that
uses a disposable bag, install an unused
bag in the machine. Then vacuum the ash
from the inside of the repot. Once the
repot is clean, remove the bag from the
vacuum cleaner and place it in the metal
container described below without delay.
6. DISPOSAL OF ASHES:
WARNING! Ashes should be placed in a metal
container with a tight-tting lid. The closed
container of ashes should be placed on a
noncombustible oor or on the ground, well
away from all combustible materials, pending
nal disposal. When the ashes are disposed of by
burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they
should be retained in the closed container until
all cinders have cooled thoroughly.
7. CLEANING THE CUTTING BOARD:
Always thoroughly wash the cutting board
after use.
To wash:
1. Hand wash only in warm, soapy water.
DO NOT SOAK.
2. Rinse with clean water.
3. Air dry.
IMPORTANT: Soaking the wooden cutting board
in water or washing it in the dishwasher can
damage the board.
NOTE: Avoid overexposure to sunlight to
prevent warping.
