MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Daily

To avoid the risk of fi re, it is important that the food zone 

is cleaned of grease and debris prior to lighting the main 

burners.

The broiling rack and grease drawer should be wiped 

daily while still warm, using a heavy cloth or other grease 

absorbing material to remove grease and burnt food before 

they burn into the grid. Remove burnt materials, such as 

carbonized grease or food, with a stiff  wire brush. DO NOT 

USE ANY TYPE OF STEEL WOOL. Small particles may be left on 

the rack surface and get into food products. The rack should 

be washed thoroughly using a wire brush and a hot, mild 

detergent or soap solution. Rinse with clear, warm water.

Monthly

Lubricate valves and bearings as required. Due to the 

usual location of the broiler that is mounted above a range 

with open tops, the heat from the open top will cause the 

lubrication grease inside the valves to dry out. When you 

notice that the valve is becoming harder to turn it is then 

time to have them greased. We suggest an Authorized 

Service Agent who is familiar with the appliance and working 

with natural and propane gas, to perform this type of work.

Exterior Cleaning

Establish a regular schedule. Any spills should be wiped off  

immediately.

1.  Wipe exposed, cleanable surface when cool with a mild 

detergent and hot water. Stubborn residue spots may be 

removed with a light weight non-metallic scouring pad. 

Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.

2.  Stainless steel should be cleaned using a mild detergent, 

a soft cloth and hot water. If it is necessary to use a non-

metallic scouring pad, always rub in the direction of the 

grain in the metal to prevent scratching. Use a water 

based stainless steel cleaner (such as Drackett Twinkle), if 

you want a high shine.
