Griddle
(on some models)
Thoroughly clean the griddle of grease and
food particles, using a square-edged spatula,
while it is still hot.
Wipe the griddle with a dry, heavy, coarse cloth
to remove any remaining residue and food
particles.
If desired, wash with hot soapy water, rinse
and dry.
Once the griddle has cooled, rub the surface
lightly with vegetable oil. Do not use corn oil
or cooking sprays as they get sticky.
If the griddle is cleaned with anything other
than a dry, heavy, coarse cloth, it will need to
be reseasoned.
Never flood the hot griddle with cold water.
This could cause the griddle to crack or warp.
Grill
(on some models)
Clean the grill immediately after cooking.
Turn off the burner. To protect your hand
from steam and heat, wear a barbecue mitt.
Scrub the grill with a brass bristle barbecue
brush, frequently rinsing in a bowl of water.
The steam created softens the food particles
and assists the cleaning process. The food
particles will drop into the liner and drip tray.
Be sure to clean the drain tube, drip tray and
liner after they have cooled.
Clean the Gourmet Radiant
™
Tray with hot
soapy water. Rinse and dry.
Backguards
and shelf
The backguards and shelf are made of
stainless steel.
Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.
Clean with hot soapy water. Rinse and dry.
If the panel and shelf have food soil
remaining, try a general kitchen cleaner, such
as Fantastik
®
, Simple Green
®
or Formula 409
®
.
For hard to clean soil use a standard stainless
steel cleaner such as Bon-Ami
®
,Cameo
®
or
Bar Keepers Friend
®
. Apply cleaner with a
damp sponge, rinse thoroughly and dry.
Always scrub lightly in the direction of the
grain.
After cleaning, use a stainless steel polish such
as Stainless Steel Magic
®
.
