PROTECTING YOUR APPLIANCE FROM THE
WEATHER
An optional heavy-duty cover will protect your
appliance’s fi nish and protect your investment. The
water repellent cover will protect your appliance
from the weather. Always cover your appliance
when not in use. (Allow to cool before covering.)
Please specify the model number and serial
number of your appliance when ordering a cover.
CARE AND CLEANING
APPLIANCE MUST BE COMPLETELY COOL WHEN
CLEANING. DO NOT SPRAY ANY CLEANER OR
LIQUIDS ON THE APPLIANCE WHEN HOT.
Stainless steel surfaces when exposed to
temperatures produced by the grilling process will
change color. The stainless steel will change color
from silver to brown and blue. This can be removed by
using Fire Magic Stainless Steel Cleaner (3581-1).
Clean your appliance by fi rst using Fire Magic
Barbecue and Grill Cleaner (part #3580-1) to
remove grease and dirt. Always wipe with the grain
(See Fig. 12-1). Next, use Fire Magic Stainless
Steel Cleaner (3581-1) to restore the stainless steel
color (Note: not for mirror fi nish). Finish by wiping
your appliance down using Fire Magic Polish Wipes
(3586-1). To clean the mirror panel (if applicable),
use a quality brand glass cleaner only, not any
of the cleaners mentioned above.
Clean your appliance at least once a month.
If your appliance is installed in a seaside (salt air) or
poolside (chlorine) location, it will be more susceptible
to corrosion and must be maintained/cleaned more
frequently. Do not store chemicals (such as chlorine
or fertilizer) near your stainless steel appliance.
Due to the nature of stainless steel, surface iron
oxide deposits may appear. Do not be alarmed –
these deposits are removable with stainless-steel
cleaner through prompt and periodic maintenance.
If not attended to promptly, permanent pitting may
occur.
Check and clean the burner ports and burner carry-
over slits for blockage at least annually by removing
the burner (see orifi ce changing instructions) and
visually inspecting the burner inlet for insects and
nests. A clogged burner can lead to a fi re in the
bottom of the appliance. (For Fire Magic grills use
Maintenance Kit part #MK-1.)
The inside of the appliance may be cleaned
periodically with oven cleaner if desired. Follow the
oven cleaner instructions for proper use.
Be careful not to get oven cleaner on the outside
surface of the appliance as it can permanently
damage the fi nish.
By following these recommendations, you will enjoy
the beauty and convenience of your appliance for
many years to come.
CARE & CLEANING
Wipe with g
rain
Periodically clean the drip tray and inner liners of all
food/grease deposits to reduce the chance of fi re
and assure proper operation. The drip tray and inner
liners are removable for hand or dishwasher cleaning.
Reference the INSTALLATION section for inner liner
details. The cooking element does not need cleaning.
