Grill Grates
The grill grates are easily cleaned immediately after cooking is complete
and before turning off the flame. Wearing a barbecue mitt to protect your
hand from heat, use a stainless or brass bristle barbecue brush to scrub
the grill grates. Dip the brush frequently in a bowl of water. Steam is
created as the water contacts the hot grate. The steam assists the
cleaning process by softening the food particles.

Briquette Trays
IMPORTANT: It is critical that the briquette trays not be allowed to
develop excess build-up of debris over an extended period.
Otherwise flare-up may occur.
develop excess build-up of debris over an extended period.
Otherwise flare-up may occur.
Flare-ups occur when meat is barbecued, and its fat and juices fall upon
the hot surfaces. To control flare-ups, it is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL to
trim away excess fat from meat and poultry before grilling. Use cooking
sauces and marinades sparingly, and try to avoid very cheap cuts of meat
or meat products as these tend to have a high fat and water content.
Also, the HI setting should primarily be used when lighting the grill and
pre-heating it for grilling.

The briquettes normally burn clean during use, but it may be necessary
to clean the briquette trays more thoroughly from time to time. After
allowing the grill to cool, remove the grill grates, and then remove the
briquette trays by lifting the front edge and pulling toward you. Set the
trays upside-down on their mounting points, and operate the grill burners
on high for 20-30 minutes. This will allow the trays to burn clean. If it
becomes necessary to replace any or all the briquettes, replacements are
available from your dealer.
