SERVICING AND CLEANING
Your electric grill requires regular cleaning and maintenance. Refer to these instructions for details. Performing these
procedures will ensure proper operation, appearance, and safety.
WARNINGS
• Prior to servicing or cleaning make sure the unit is completely cool, the unit is o, and the power supply is disconnected
(as applicable and unless otherwise stated).
• Wear appropriate gloves and safety glasses during any servicing or cleaning.
• DO NOT spray any cleaner or liquids on the unit when hot.
• The unit MUST be cleaned regularly to prevent grease build-up and other food deposits. A clean and well maintained
unit prevents the risk of grease build-up and grease res.
• Verify proper operation after servicing or deep cleaning.
• See IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS section for additional related information.
CLEANING YOUR ELECTRIC GRILL
Before Each Use
1. Inspect and clean the exterior surfaces of the unit: With a cool grill, clean any dust, grease, splatter, or spills as
needed with a damp clean cloth.
2. Clean the glass:
• Clean the glass control panel with a non-abrasive quality brand glass cleaner and a clean gentle cloth. DO NOT
use other cleaners or chemicals to prevent scratching the glass.
• Clean the Magic View Window (interior and exterior) with a quality brand glass cleaner and clean cloth.
After Each Use
1. Clean the cooking grids: Operate at 700° F with hood closed for 10-15 minutes to burn o all grease. Turn o the
grill and brush/scrape the cooking grids to remove all residue. Use long-handled insulated BBQ tools and wear an
insulated glove / oven mitt.
Important: The cooking element is self-cleaning (it does not require manual cleaning).
2. Check and clean your drip tray: When the unit is cool, carefully remove the drip tray and dispose of contents
appropriately. If tray is equipped with a liner, dispose of the liner. Clean tray in a soapy water solution if needed. For
tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. Rinse and dry completely. Replace a new liner and insert the tray back
into the electric grill. Order more drip tray liners through your dealer.
3. Cover your grill: Once the unit is dry and cool, cover your grill with a Fire Magic protective cover (not included).
Twice A Year (or as needed) - Deep Clean
1. Interior of grill: In addition to cleaning the cooking grids and drip tray, a deep clean of the interior and all components
MUST be performed twice a year (or as needed depending on use). Follow the steps below.
a. With a cool unit, open the oven lid and remove the cooking grids and inner liners. Clean all components in a soapy
water solution, rinse, dry, and set aside. For tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. The components can also
be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Note: Refer to the parts list and INNER LINER REMOVAL section as needed.
b. Grill inner walls: use a grill cleaner and a copper pad to scrub the inner walls. Fire Magic grill cleaner is recommended.
Follow instructions provided with the grill cleaner.
Wipe down the entire surface of the inner walls with a wet, clean, heavy-duty rag. Remove all cleaner.
c. Re-install all components removed during this process.
2. Exterior of grill: With a cool grill, use a grill cleaner (or a soapy water
solution) and a clean cloth to remove grease and dirt from the grill exterior.
For tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. Always wipe with the grain.
Rinse and dry completely. Then follow up with a stainless steel cleaner
and a clean cloth. To clean the magic view window (if equipped), use a
quality brand glass cleaner. DO NOT use other cleaners or chemicals.
If this routine cleaning is not performed, the stainless steel may become
dull and develop surface rust (due to use and atmospheric conditions).
If left uncleaned, signicant damage and pitting may occur.
Important: DO NOT use steel wool, any other metal tools, or any other cleaners/chemicals to clean the exterior other
than recommended above. Such items promote rust.
Note: Due to the nature of stainless steel, temperatures produced by the cooking process will cause discoloration. This
can be reduced by routine cleaning.
3. Glass surfaces: For hard water stains on glass, it is recommended to clean the glass using a white vinegar / water
solution and wiping clean with a soft cloth.

For Environments High In Salt, Chloride, Or Other Corrosive Chemicals
When this grill is installed in a corrosive environment such as near the ocean (salt air), poolside (chlorine and/or
pool chemicals) or any other location with exposure to high salt/chloride content or corrosive chemicals/solutions,
it will be more susceptible to corrosion and MUST be maintained/cleaned more frequently.
• DO NOT store any corrosive chemicals (chlorine, hydrochloric acid, fertilizer, etc.) near your stainless steel unit.
• DO NOT allow any corrosive materials (masonry dust, debris, etc.) to settle on your stainless steel unit.
• These environments, chemicals, and materials may cause the 304 stainless steel to develop surface rust and
consequently pitting. Under these conditions the unit exterior MUST be cleaned at least monthly. Inspect your grill
often and clean accordingly.
Protecting Your Electric Grill
An optional Fire Magic protective cover will protect your grill when not in use. Install the cover on a cool and dry unit. DO
NOT cover a damp grill. During high humidity or after rainy conditions, remove the cover to dry trapped moisture if present.
(If the cover is installed over a damp unit it can cause surface rust.)
Ensure that the INSIDE of the cover is DRY before putting it back on the grill.
