29CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Stainless steel cleaning and maintenance
Clean the appliance as required or at least twice annually
with hot soapy water� Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes
as these will mark the porcelain enamel or stainless steel
surfaces of the appliance� If you cook food directly over the
burner flame, causing more vapour or smoke, the viewing
glass (where fitted) will need more frequent cleaning�
Stainless steel care and cleaning
After the appliance has been used, wash down the surfaces
with hot soapy water� The surface of the stainless steel
has a grain� Always clean along the grain of the steel� This
will avoid unwanted marks� Near the ocean or salt-water
environment, wash regularly, rinse and then dry before
covering� Covering a salt sprayed stainless steel product
while still wet will allow salt deposits to form, causing rust to
form even on very high grade stainless�
Discoloration of stainless steel
The discoloration of stainless steel, caused by high heat is
caused by Chromium Oxide and sometimes appears as a
light brown colouring over the surface of the steel� In most
cases, this discoloration can be removed with a suitable
stainless steel polish�
NOTE: Discoloration of the stainless steel is not covered
under warranty�
Porcelain enamel cleaning and maintenance
After the appliance has been used, wash down the surfaces
with hot soapy water� Near the ocean or salt-water
environment, wash regularly, rinse and then dry before
covering� Highly caustic cleaners should be avoided�
IMPORTANT
Care should be taken with all cleaning agents to avoid
damage to any associated non-stainless steel components.
Fire, safety and protective clothing regulations should be
closely adhered to.
Rust
Cast iron and steel are metals and will rust if you do not
provide sufficient maintenance and care� Rust occurs when
the surface of the metal starts to oxidise� Generally, rust will
occur on any exposed metal surface if it is not protected from
the elements� Even stainless steel can be affected by long
term exposure to the elements� To prevent exposure to the
elements, store your barbecue, hood and trolley under the
protection of a purpose made cover�
Do
• Wash regularly with warm soapy water or detergent
using a clean cloth and, if necessary, a soft bristle
brush�
• Remove non-washable deposits using an approved
cleaner�
• In the case of stainless steel, clean in one direction only,
along the original polish lines�
• Rinse well with clean water and wipe dry�
• Keep barbecue covered when not in use� eg polyester

Don’t
• Use steel wool or metallic scrapers to remove non-
washable deposits�

harden�
