Kleenmaid OCCDB - Manual (Page 17)

Before initial use, and periodically, wash your cooking plates in a
mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or
vegetable brush to clean your cooking plates.
It is recommended the cooking plates be coated with a thin
layer of cooking oil on a regular basis to prevent rusting. Slight rust
can be removed with a scrubbing brush before use.
CLEANING THE COOKING PLATES
Proper care and maintenance will keep your barbecue in top
operating condition and prolong its life. Follow these cleaning
procedures on a timely basis and your barbecue will stay clean
and operate with minimum effort.
CAUTION: Be sure your barbecue is off and cool
before cleaning.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, we suggest you wash
your barbecue using a mild soap and warm water solution. You
can use a wash cloth or sponge for this process. Do not use a
stiff wire or brass brush. These will scratch stainless steel and
chip painted surfaces
(varies by model) during the cleaning
process.
CLEANING EXTERIOR SURFACES
To reduce the chance of fire, the grease draining tray and grease
receptacle should be visually inspected before each barbecue
use. Remove any grease and wash grease tray and receptacle
with a mild soap and warm water solution.
NOTE: Grease / fat fires are not covered by warranty.

Periodically you should wash the flame tamer in a soap and
warm water solution. Use a vegetable brush to remove stubborn
burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the flame tamers thoroughly
before you re-install them into the barbecue.
CLEANING THE FLAME TAMERS
FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW THE
USE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS COULD
RESULT IN A FIRE OR EXPLOSION
THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY
INJURY, DEATH OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE.
The stainless steel over time will be affected by ‘tea staining’ (the
brown discolouration of some stainless steel).
Tea staining can be reduced by washing the surface with
mild detergent and warm water. This should then be followed by
rinsing with clean cold water. We recommend the surface then
be wiped dry with a clean cloth.
CARE FOR STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE
IN COASTAL AREAS, FREQUENT
CLEANING AND THE USE OF A COVER
IS RECOMMENDED TO PROLONG THE
LIFE OF THE APPLIANCE.
SALTY AIR WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT
EXPOSED PARTS.
DO NOT USE OVEN CLEANER TO CLEAN
THE BARBECUE.
