Stainless Steel Parts
Your Brigade range is equipped with a heavy-duty
stainless steel oven cavity which is the same as what
is commonly used in commercial and restaurant style
ranges. Over time they will naturally start to darken and
discolor. This is the standard process of how stainless
steel reacts when it is exposed to high heat tempera-
tures. The discoloration of the oven will not aff ect the
performance.
While the stainless steel oven cavity will never return
to the original color, there are some steps which can
be taken to help minimize the discoloration of these
components. To ensure that the stainless steel maintains
adequate corrosion resistance, it should be cleaned regu-
larly. Surface contaminates vary in terms of corrosive-
ness, eff ect on surface fi nish, and ease of removal. The
mildest form of cleaning should always be used fi rst.
Oven Cavity and Exterior Stainless Steel Components
To clean a lightly soiled surface:
• It is recommended to use warm water, a mild, non-
abrasive detergent, and a soft cloth while rubbing in
the direction of the stainless steel grain.
For more highly soiled/discolored surfaces:
• It is recommended to use the soft cleanser version
of Bar Keepers Friend. Simply read and follow the
directions found on product label.
• To prevent corrosion of the metal, it is important that
the cleaning solution be rinsed or wiped clean with
warm water. The surface should then be wiped clean,
in the direction of the stainless steel grain, with dry
towels to prevent water spots.
Things to avoid when cleaning stainless steel:
• Steel brushes or steel wool
• Abrasive cleaners
• Bleach or hydrochloric acid based cleaners
• Detergents containing chloride
• Avoid using cleaning cloths that have been used on
ordinary steel
• NEVER rub against the grain with a cleaning agent or
polish as it will alter the surface of the steel and
reduce the corrosion resistance
• DO NOT permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on
stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently
discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills
immediately.
Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer
when maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking
equipment is no exception. Your range must be kept
clean and maintained properly. Before cleaning, make
sure all controls are in the “OFF” position. Disconnect
power if you are going to clean thoroughly with water.
Surface Burners
Wipe up spill-overs as soon as possible after they occur
and before they get a chance to burn in and cook solid.
In the event of a spill-over, follow these steps:
• Allow the burner and grate to cool to a safe
temperature level.
• Lift off the burner grate. Wash in warm soapy water.
• Remove the burner cap and burner head and clean.
Grates/Burner Caps
After cooking, always wipe down grates
and burner caps with a damp sponge
and dry thoroughly. Normal cleaning
can be done with hot, soapy water
and/or Soft Scrub cleanser (without
bleach) with a blue Scotch-Brite pad.
If stubborn spots still occur, then use
Easy-Off Fume Free Max Oven Cleaner.
Procedure for oven cleaner use: Take
grates and burner caps off unit - move
outside and place on newspaper.
Spray with Easy-Off , let cleaner sit on
spotted areas for 1-2 hours. Clean off
with hot soapy water.
When cleaning grates and burner
caps, make sure to thoroughly dry
them, especially underneath. If the
bottom portion does not totally dry
before setting them back on the cooking surface, they
may rust. You can also set the grates and burner caps on
top of the burner and turn the burner on high for ten to
fi fteen seconds for extra drying. To prevent rusting and
discoloration, do not submerge grates in water soak for
any length of time or run them through the dishwasher.
If rust does occur, Bar Keeper’s Friend and a blue Scotch-
Brite pad will remove it. To condition grates and burner
caps, apply a light coating of mineral oil or vegetable oil.
Allow oil to soak in 15 minutes before returnng grates or
burner caps to cooking surface.
Burner Head
If ports on burner head are clogged, clean with a straight
pin. DO NOT enlarge or distort the ports. DO NOT use a
toothpick to clean the ports.
Note: For stubborn stains, use a non abrasive cleanser such
as Bon Ami™ and a soft brush or soft Scotch Brite™ pad.
CLEANING TIP: For diffi cult to clean burner caps
and heads, place parts in a zip seal bag with ammonia.
Burner Base
The base should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water
at the end of each cooling period. DO NOT use steel
wool, abrasive cloths, cleanser, or powders. To remove
encrusted materials, soak the area with a hot towel to
loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula.
DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal
tool to scrape the base.
• Wipe up any spills which remain on the sealed top
surface.
• Replace burner cap, burner head, and grates after
drying thoroughly.
