INSTALLATION / USE & CARE
STAINLESS STEEL
Our products are known for their attractive appearance. We
achieve this by selecting only the nest grades of stainless steel
and applying exacting workmanship.
In order to maintain this attractive appearance over the life of the
grill it is important to take the following steps:
• After each use wipe down the exterior of the grill to remove
grease and splatters.
• Be sure to follow the cleaning instructions for keeping the grates
and burners clean and ready for use.
• Use a commercially available Stainless Steel cleaner to clean and
polish the exterior surfaces.
Doing these things on a regular basis minimizes the amount of
e ort required.
Part of the appeal of your Grill is the ne grain nish. When remov-
ing stubborn stains:
• Do not use metallic abrasives and always rub in the direction of
the grain.
• Some household cleaning products are not suitable for stainless
steel; be sure to read the label before using on your Grill.
• Always use the mildest cleaning solution rst, scrubbing in the
direction of the grain. Specks of grease may gather in the grain
of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface, giving the ap-
pearance of rust.
To remove these baked-on foods use a ne to medium grit non-
metallic abrasive pad (Scotch Brite is good) in conjunction with a
stainless steel cleaner.
• Solutions used for cleaning concrete and masonry can be very
corrosive and will ‘attack’ stainless steel. Ensure your products
are well protected before you allow the use of such chemicals
near your grill.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR LOCATIONS NEAR POOLS AND COASTAL
AREAS:
The 304 stainless steel material used in the construction of the grill
is highly rust resistant, however, chlorine in the air from swimming
pools or the salt from sea air may cause surface rust to appear
and even create some pitting if left on the product.
Here are a few tips to avoid this:
• Regularly wipe down the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth.
(Micro ber cloths perform very well).
• Allow the surfaces to dry before installing the cover. Do not
cover a damp grill.
• In extreme environments apply a rust inhibitor which leaves a
microscopic protective layer on the grill. Products that provide a
layer of vapor corrosion inhibitors (VpCI™) protect the surface
very well.
• For seasonal storage use the product referred to above, ensure
the grill is dry and then cover and secure the cover to minimize
the amount of damp air getting to the surfaces.
THE LIMITED LIFE TIME WARRANTY PROVIDES PROTECTION
AGAINST RUST THROUGH OF PARTS THAT RENDER THE PRODUCT
INOPERATIVE. IT DOES NOT COVER OCCASIONAL SURFACE RUST
OR STAINING DUE TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
After your rst use certain areas of the grill may discolor from the
intense heat given o by the burners - this is normal and cannot
be cleaned o .
For light and heavy food stains there are many di erent stainless
steel cleaners available.
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be cleaned after each use. After the grill is
completely cool, remove the drip tray by pulling it out until it
stops, then lifting the front edge until the drip tray comes free.
Clean it with hot soapy water or an oven-style cleaning
product and re-install. When using an oven-style cleaning
product be sure to carefully follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Many of these cleaners are toxic and can damage the stainless
steel nish if not used properly.
Also, check the tray after rain. If you’ve left the grill uncovered, you
may need to remove the drip tray drain plug to drain the water
from the tray. The drain plug can be removed with a at-head
screwdriver.
