Care and Maintenance
DRIP TRAY The drip tray located below the grill, inside the cart, should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of debris. NOTE: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean. Important: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered (cover sold separately). Rain water can collect inside of the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered. If the drip tray is not cleaned after use and the grill is left uncovered, the drip tray will fill with water causing grease and water to spill into the grill cart. We recommend cleaning and storing the drip tray after every use. COOKING GRATES The cooking grates can be cleaned immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the flame. Wear a barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates with a damp cloth. If the grill is allowed to cool down, cleaning the grates will be easier if removed from the grill and cleaned with a mild detergent. STAINLESS STEEL After initial usage, areas of the grill may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners, this is normal. Purchase a mild stainless steel cleaner and rub in the direction of the grain of the metal. Specks of grease can gather on the surface of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give a worn appearance. For removal, use an nonabrasive oven cleaner in conjunction with a stainless cleaner. NOTE: Always scrub in the direction of the grain.
