Care and Cleaning
Professional Outdoor Grills & Cooktops
Drip tray
The full-width drip tray will collect grease from the
grill section, as well as boilovers and spills from
the cooktop burners (on some models).
Allow the tray and its contents to cool before
attempting to clean. Using paper towels or a
sponge, and a general-purpose cleaner, wipe the
grease from the tray often to avoid the possibility
of a grease fire.
NOTE: Drain holes are provided for the easy
removal of accumulated rain water. Extend the drip
tray partially forward to expose the drain plug(s).
Place a container under the tray and remove the
drain plug(s). After water has drained, complete
cleaning by wiping the tray dry using paper
towels or a sponge.
Cooktop
burners
(on some
models)
The burner consists of the burner base and the
burner head. They can be lifted off, making them
easy to clean.
WARNING:
DO NOT OPERATE THE BURNER WITHOUT ALL
BURNER PARTS IN PLACE. Surface burners
should be cleaned routinely, especially after
bad spillovers which can clog the slots and
holes in the burner heads. Improperly
assembled or dirty burners may lead to an
explosion, which could result in serious injury.
The electrode is located at the front of each
burner. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean
around any burner while another burner is on or
being lighted. An electric shock may result.
To remove the burner parts:
1. Turn all controls OFF before removing any
burner parts.
2. When cool, lift off the burner grates, burner
heads and burner bases for easier cleaning.
Cleaning
Lift off burner parts only when cool. Wash in hot,
soapy water. You may use a plastic scouring pad
to remove burned-on food particles. Burners
are dishwasher-safe, but hand-washing is
recommended.
To remove burned-on food, soak the burner
heads and bases in a solution of mild liquid
detergent and hot water for 20–30 minutes.
For more stubborn stains, use a plastic
scouring pad or toothbrush.
After Cleaning
Before replacing the burner parts, shake out
excess water and then dry them thoroughly.
To replace the burner parts:
1. Replace the burner base, making sure that
the slots are properly aligned with the
electrode and the posts on the cooktop.
2. Place the burner head on top of the burner
base. Make sure that the burner head is
properly seated on the burner base.

igniters
and
electrodes
(on some models)
The electrode of the electronic ignition system is
positioned at the front of the burner base. When
cleaning the cooktop, be careful not to snag the
igniter with your cleaning cloth. Damage to the
igniter could occur.
Be careful not to push in a control knob while
cleaning. It could cause the igniter to spark.
Make sure that the white ceramic igniters on
the cooktop are dry and clean. Clean the metal
portion of the electrode with a soft cloth or
emery board.
Do not attempt to remove the electrode from
the cooktop.
