• Acidic and sugar-laden spills
deteriorate the stainless steel.
Remove soil immediately.
• Abrasive cleaners, used too
vigorously or too often, can
eventually mar the stainless
steel.
• Do not use sharp tool to
scrape the igniter. It is fragile;
if it is damaged the grill cannot
be lit.
• The grate is heavy; use care
when lifting. Place on a
protected surface.
• Blisters, crazing and chips are
common due to the extreme
temperatures and rapid temp-
erature changes.
• Hot sudsy water; rinse and dry
thoroughly.
• Formula 409 ® or Fantastic ® .
Wipe spray off immediately or
apply to a paper towel first and
then wipe spill.
• Mild Abrasive Cleansers:
Cameo ® , Zud ® , Barkeepers
Friend ® . Liquid cleaners: Kleen
King ® , Siege Stainless Steel and
Aluminum Cleaner. Apply with
care.
• Use a cotton swab dampened
with water, Formula 409 ® or
Fantastic ® .
• While the grate is hot (but the
flame is off), dip a brass grill
brush in hot water and scrub
the grate. The steam created
from the hot water and the
abrasive action of the brush
helps loosen the hard to
remove soil.
• Do not clean in a self-cleaning
oven.
• Hot sudsy water; rinse and dry
thoroughly.
• After grease removal, drip pan
may be put into dishwasher.

may leave a permanent
outline. Trim Strips
