GRILLING GUIDE – Cleaning Your
Grill
Why Clean?
We've all heard the saying 'An ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure'. This is great advice when it comes to keeping
your grill clean.
Routine Care
Periodic cleaning of this grill is necessary, as grill fires can occur
when grease and food debris collect in the bottom of the grill.
After each use, remove any remaining food particles from the
cooking grate and inside of the grill using a grill brush. Do this
after the grill has cooled down. This grill is not designed to be
'burned off' by closing the lid and turning the burners on High for
an extended time. The excessive heat generated can cause
leftover grease to catch fire, and can cause permanent damage
to your grill.
General Cleaning
Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. Do not
use abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner
on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.
Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most
residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or
glass cleaner. Use non-abrasive scouring powder for stubborn
stains.
Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or non-abrasive
cleaner and warm water. Wipe dry with a soft non-abrasive cloth.
Stainless steel surfaces: Stainless steel can rust under certain
conditions. This can be caused by environmental conditions
such as chlorine or salt water, or improper
cleaning tools such as wire or steel
wool. It can also discolor due to heat,
chemicals, or grease build-up. To
maintain your grill's high quality
appearance, wash with mild detergent
and warm water, or use a stainless
steel grill cleaner. Baked-on grease
deposits may require the use of an
abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only
in direction of brushed finish to avoid
damage. Do not use abrasive pad on
areas with graphics.
Cooking surfaces: Ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking
surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking
surfaces while grill is hot.
Storing Your Grill
• Clean cooking grates.
• Store grill in dry location.
• When LP cylinder is connected to grill, store outdoors in a well
ventilated space and out of reach of children.
• Cover grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of grill
covers offered by Char-Broil at charbroil.com.
• Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off,
disconnected, and removed from grill. Never store LP cylinder
indoors.
• When removing grill from storage, follow the 'Cleaning the
Burner Assembly' instructions in the Use and Care section of
the Product Guide.
Critters
Spiders like to make their homes in the venturi tubes of grills.
These must be inspected and cleaned regularly to ensure there
are no blockages. Refer to the Use and Care portion of this
Product Guide for complete information.
