OUTDOOR GRILL CARE
Replacing the Igniter Battery
If igniters stop sparking, the battery should be replaced.
1. Open battery compartment. Remove battery.
2. Replace with an alkaline 1.5-volt “D” size battery.
3. Close inner compartment, cover will snap into place. 
4. Close outer cover.
Changing the Light Bulb
1. Unplug grill or disconnect power.
2. To remove glass light cover, remove screw and gently pry 
downward with a small flat-blade screwdriver at the left edge 
of the cover near the screw, and pull away from the retainer.
3. Remove bulb from socket.
4. Replace bulb with a new 12-volt, 10-watt maximum, halogen 
bulb, using a tissue or wearing cotton gloves to handle the 
bulb. To avoid damaging the bulb, do not touch the bulb with 
bare fingers.
5. Replace glass light cover by placing end without clip into the 
clip mounted on the grill. Snap the screw end into place and 
tighten the screw.
6. Plug in grill or reconnect power.
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and 
the grill is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning 
products.
For routine cleaning, wash with soap and water using a soft cloth 
or sponge. Rinse with clean water and dry at once with a soft, 
lint-free cloth to avoid spots and streaks.
Do not use steel wool to clean the grill, as it will scratch the 
surface.
To avoid weather damage to finish, use vinyl grill cover. See 
“Assistance or Service” section.
STAINLESS STEEL
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to stainless steel surfaces, do not 
use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop 
Polishing Creme, steel wool, gritty wash cloths or paper towels.
Cleaners should not contain chlorine. Damage may occur.
Food spills should be cleaned as soon as entire grill is cool. Spills 
may cause permanent discoloration.
Cleaning Method:
Rub in direction of grain to avoid scratching or damaging the 
surface.

GRILL GRATES
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to grill grates, do not use a steel 
or fiber scraper. Immediately after you are finished cooking, 
loosen food soil with a brass bristle brush. Turn all burners to HI 
for 10-15 minutes with the hood closed to burn off food soil. Turn 
off all burners, raise the hood and let grates cool. Use the brass 
bristle brush to remove ash from the grill grates.
When completely cool, grill racks can be removed for thorough 
cleaning. Clean them with a mild detergent and warm water. 
For baked-on soil, prepare a solution of 1 cup (250 mL) ammonia 
to 1 gal. (3.75 L) water. Soak grates for 20 minutes, then rinse 
with water and dry completely.
WARMING SHELF
Cleaning Method:
Liquid detergent or an all-purpose cleaner. 
Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.
For tough spots or baked-on grease, use Heavy Duty 
Degreaser Part Number 31552, a commercial degreaser

See “Assistance or Service” section to order.
IMPORTANT: Make sure gas supply is off and all control knobs 
are in the OFF position. Make sure the side burner is cool.
EXTERIOR
The quality of this material resists most stains and pitting, 
providing that the surface is kept clean, polished and covered.
Apply stainless steel polish to all non-cooking areas before 
first use. Reapply after each cleaning to avoid permanent 
damage to surface.
Cleaning should always be followed by rinsing with clean 
warm water.
Wipe the surface completely dry with a soft cloth.
For tough spots or baked-on grease, use Heavy Duty 
Degreaser Part Number 31552, a commercial degreaser 
designed for stainless steel.
