Kenmore 141 17690 Gas Grill User Manual


 
Basic Lighting Procedures
Machine oils used in the manufacturing process of
stainless steel can cause stainless steel to turn a tan
color. Before initial grilluse, remove protective PVC
film from Control Panel and inside and outside of Grill
Lid. Use a Stainless Steel Cleaner to polish the
stainless steel and remove these excess oilsfrom
your grill. Never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers
because they will scratch and damage your grill. For
details, see Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel
Surfaces on page 21.
