General Cleaning
• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. Do not use
abrasive cleansers, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic
parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.
• Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most residue can
be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or glass cleaner. Use
non-abrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.
• Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or non-abrasive cleaner
and warm water. The Char-Broil
®
grill cleaner is available at your local
Home Depot store or online at www.charbroil.com. Wipe dry with a soft
non-abrasive cloth.
• Stainless steel surfaces: Stainless steel can rust under certain condi-
tions. This can be caused by environmental conditions such as chlorine
or salt water, or improper cleaning tools such as wire or steel wool. It
can also discolor due to heat, chemicals, or grease build-up. To maintain
your grill’s high quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm
water, or use a stainless steel grill cleaner. Baked-on grease deposits may
require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in direction
of brushed nish to avoid damage. Do not use abrasive pad on areas
with graphics.
• You can minimize the need to clean the exterior of your grill by using a
Char-Broil
®
grill cover that has been specially designed for your RED
®
grill. Choose from a variety of grill covers available at your local Home
Depot store or online at www.charbroil.com.
Critters
Spiders like to make their homes in the venturi tubes of grills. These
must be inspected and cleaned regularly to ensure there are no block-
ages. Refer to your product guide for complete information.
