Grill Drip Pan / Stainless
Steel
• 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 temperature 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,
Wright's
® All Purpose Brass
Polish. 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.
