Cleaning and Maintenance
Once the burners are removed, clean the exterior with a wire brush.
Clear out any clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. NEVER
use a toothpick or similar items as they may break off and clog the
port. Shake out any debris through the air shutter. Use a flashlight to
inspect the burner inlet to en-sure it is not blocked. If obstructions can
be seen, use a metal wire coat hanger that has been straightened
out to clean. You also may use an air hose to blow out any debris that
may remain.

TruSear™ Infrared Grill Burner (If Applicable)
When finished cooking, turn the control knob to the “HIGH” setting
and allow the burner to burn for 5 minutes. This helps eliminate any
drippings or debris that would otherwise remain on the burner,
degrading the performance and reducing burner life. After the 5
minute burn-off time, turn the grill “OFF” and allow to cool completely
before attempting to clean or move. Wipe excess grease and food
from grill surfaces.
Note: When the TruSear™ infrared burner is not use, it must be
covered with the provided stainless steel cover for protection from
outside elements such as rain.
Drip Tray
The drip tray pans (if applicable) should
be removed and cleaned after each
use. Allow the drippings in the
the drip tray pans to cool
completely before removing. To
remove the drip tray pans,
simply remove the pans
from the tray. Place the
trays in hot, soapy water
to clean. Wipe up any
debris that may have
collected in the drip tray with a
hot, soapy towel. Dry and replace drip
tray pans before
next use.
CAUTION
DO NOT use a metal knife or any other metal tool to
scrape stainless steel parts.
DO NOT permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on
stainless steel surfaces, as citric acid will permanently
discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.
DO NOTt use abrasive cleaners, steel wool pads, or
abrasive cloths on stainless steel, painted parts, or brass
parts.
DO NOT use brass cleaners on the brass option parts.
They feature an epoxy coating.
