Sear Magic Grid System Care
For best results, preheat the grill for 10 minutes.
1. Use a brass bristled brush to clean top rungs.
2. Use the supplied “Forked Grid Tool” to clean the
valley areas between the main rungs. Simply run
the tool back and forth with enough pressure to
remove the debris. For heavy build-ups you can
use a plastic scouring pads. Do not use abra-
sives like steel wool pads or caustic cleaners
such as oven cleaners. They will damage the
grid surface and void your warranty.
3. If a grid gets a slight bow, lay it on a flat surface
and apply pressure to the ached area. This will flat-
ten the grid to its original configuration.
Note: Over time the grids may change color
slightly. This is normal and will not effect the
grids performance or durability.
Stainless Steel Cleaning (TJK, Optimum Console)
Before Cleaning, determine which way the “grain”
of the metal runs and always clean with the grain.
NEVER USE STEEL WOOL PADS TO CLEAN
STAINLESS STEEL.
1. Routine cleaning is done with a warm soapy water
applied with a sponge or soft cloth. Always rinse with
clean hot water and wipe dry with a soft cloth. Glass
cleaners like Windex also works well.
2. Stubborn stains can be removed with a mild non-
scratching abrasive household powder. Add a small
amount of vinegar to the scouring powder to increase
its potency.
3. Commercial stainless steel cleaners and polishers
also work well, such as MHP’s Stainless Steel
Cleaner (Part #SSC).
Note: Over time the stainless steel will turn a mild
gold patina from the grill’s heat. This is normal.
