CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
General Overview
Proper care, maintenance, and cleaning will help ensure a long life of your Dine & Breakfast Club. Periodic
cleaning will help avoid accumulations of flammable grease, fats, and other debris. Some debris and residue
may remain on the side burner grates and the griddle plate. Please follow the direction below carefully
Caution: Always allow the Dine & Breakfast Club to cool before cleaning. Do not allow water to make contact
with the burner surface or griddle surface, at any time.
Side Burner Grates
Wipe up all spill-over as soon as possible after they occur and before they get a chance to burn in and cook
solid. The Burner Grates may also be removed and cleaned with a brass or stainless steel bristle brush and
soapy water. Standard oven cleaner may be used for deeper cleaning. Rinse the Burner Grate thoroughly with
clean water before using.
Griddle Plate
Rub the surface of a hot griddle with unsalted solid shortening, vegetable oil or spray it with a non-stick
cooking spray. Thoroughly wipe it with a rough cloth to remove food particles and other residue. Special
griddle cleaners are commercially available which may be used to remove heavy soil build-up. Follow
manufacturer’s directions exactly. Rinse the griddle with room temperature water after using these cleaners.
Dry and coat lightly with cooking oil. Caution: Using hot soapy water to clean the griddle will remove the
cooked-in seasoning and will require re-seasoning by coating lightly with cooking oil.
Caution: Never flood a hot griddle with cold water! This promotes griddle warping and can cause the griddle
plate to crack if continued over a period of time.
Grease Tray
The grease tray collects grease, liquid and food particles. It is highly recommended to clean the pan after
every use to avoid any possibility of a grease fire. Allow the tray and its contents to cool before cleaning. The
grease tray is located in front of the griddle plate assembly. Slightly tilt the grease tray forward and lift the tray
to remove it from the griddle plate assembly. Wipe the grease tray clean with a cloth and wash with a hot
soapy solution. Make sure the grease tray is fully inserted back into the Dine & Breakfast Club again.
Spider and Insect Warning
Spiders and other insects can nest in the burners and orifices of this and any other outdoor products, which
causes the gas to flow from the front of the burner. This can create a dangerous condition that can cause a
fire behind the valve panel, damaging the Dine & Breakfast Club and making it unsafe to operate.
Inspect the burners once a year, or if the Dine & Breakfast Club has not been used for more than a month or if
any of the following conditions occur:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow.
2. The appliance does not reach temperature.
3. The appliance heats unevenly.
4. The burner makes popping noises.
