Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning the Griddle
The griddle surface should be cleaned after each
use to preserve it and continue to ensure a non-stick
cooking surface. Follow these steps for a proper
cleaning:
1. After the grill is o and cooled for 5 minutes, use a
metal scraper or spatula to scrape excess grease, oil,
and food debris into the hole in the griddle (A).
NOTE: For stubborn, stuck on food debris, a small
amount of room temperature water can be used during
the scraping process. DO NOT USE LARGE AMOUNTS
COLD WATER WHILE CLEANING THE GRIDDLE.
2. Using several paper towels, wipe and dry the
griddle's surface, directing any excess grease, oil,
and food debris into the hole in the griddle.
3. Apply small amounts of a neutral cooking oil such as
vegetable or canola across the griddle's surface.
4. Using paper towels, rub the oil evenly around the
entire cooking surface. Use more paper towels if
needed to wipe up any excess pools of oil.
Cleaning the Burners
Two areas on the burners that are key to optimum
performance are the ports (small openings running
along the length of the burners) and the spider/insect
screens on the front ends of the burners. Keeping
these areas clean is essential for safe operation.
Cleaning the Burner Ports
1) Once the grill and LP tank have been turned o
and the grill has cooled, using BBQ mitts or gloves,
remove the griddle and set aside.
2) Use a clean stainless steel bristle grill brush to
clean the outside of the burners by brushing across
the burner ports (B).
Cleaning the Spider Screens
1) Locate the ends of the burners on the underside of
the control panel where they meet the valves.
2) Clean the spider/insect screens on each of the
burners using a soft bristle brush (C).

Cleaning the Grease ManagementSystem
The grease management system consists of a slide-
out grease tray and a catch pan. These components
were designed to be easily removed, cleaned, and
replaced (D); an essential step every time you
prepare to grill. Instructions on inspecting the grease
management system can be found in the "Every Time
You Cook" section of this manual.
NOTE: In the event of severe weather, water may
enter the grease tray and disposable drip pan. Check
the disposable drip pan and grease tray for water
and empty when necessary.
Cleaning the Grill Frame
The outside of your grill may include stainless steel,
porcelain-enameled, and plastic surfaces. WEBER
recommends the following methods based on the
surfacetype:
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
Clean stainless steel using a non-toxic, non-abrasive
stainless steel cleaner or polish designed for use on
outdoor products and grills. Use a microfiber cloth to
clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel.
Donot use paper towels.
NOTE: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel
with abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish.
They will change the color of the metal by removing
the top chromium oxide film coating.
Cleaning Painted, Porcelain-Enameled Surfaces
and PlasticComponents
Clean painted, porcelain-enameled and plastic
components with warm soapy water, and paper towels
or cloth. After wiping down the surfaces, rinse and dry
thoroughly.
Cleaning the Outside of Grills that are in
Unique Environments
If your grill is subject to a particularly harsh
environment, you will want to clean the outside more
often. Acid rain, pool chemicals, and salt water can
cause surface rusting to appear. Wipe down the
outside of your grill with warm soapy water. Follow
up with a rinse and thorough drying. Additionally, you
may want to apply a stainless steel cleaner weekly to
prevent surface rust.
