STEPS
Caution: Before cleaning and storing your grill, always make sure your Gravity Series Grill is cool to the touch.
- Power off your Gravity Series Grill using the control panel.
- Insert the heat intake and air intake slides back into place on the charcoal hopper.
- Once grill is completely cool, use a brush to remove built up grease and food from the SMOKE + SEAR grates.
- Clean grill and grates using a mild dish detergent and wipe with a mildly damp rag. DO NOT use oven cleaner or other cleaning agents. Make sure to completely dry before continuing.
- Remove grates and scrape the heat manifold to remove grease and food build-up.
- Clean the temperature probe periodically with mild dish detergent to ensure accurate grill temperature readings. Make sure to dry thoroughly.
- Remove the grease tray and dispose of grease in a non-combustible container. Clean with mild dish detergent and wipe with a damp rag. Make sure to dry thoroughly.
- Remove the bottom grill tray and scrape grease and food build-up into a non-combustible container and dispose.
- Season and spray inside of grill with cooking oil. Follow the steps on the following page for a more in-depth look at seasoning your Gravity Series Grill.
- Once ashes are cold, clean ash tray and inside of bottom hopper after every use to remove ash buildup, residue, and dust.
- Always empty the ash tray after each use once ashes have completely cooled. This will help prolong the life of the ash tray.
- Dispose of cold ashes in aluminum foil pan, soaking with water and discarding in a non-combustible container.
- Cover your grill and store in protected DRY AREA. Store only when fire is out, and surfaces are cold. Store temperature probes inside the home when not in use.
- When grill is not in frequent use, check your grill periodically to avoid possible rust and corrosion due to moisture build-up.
