CLEANING CONSIDERATIONS
: Do not use soap, detergents,
degreasers, silicone, sodium salts, bleaches,
anti-oxidants or any other commercial cleaning
agents to clean the catalyst. Use of these
chemicals will damage the catalyst and render
it inoperable
NOTE: Do not clean catalyst in a dishwasher or
ultrasonic cleaner. In no case should any abrasive
material or abrasive scrubber be used for cleaning.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
The catalytic converter (catalyst) is normally part
of a combustion system, and the general safety
practices observed with such systems should be
practiced.Thefollowingconsiderationsarespecic
to the catalyst portion.
A: Remove power: Before removing the catalyst,
disconnect power to the broiler and allow
to cool to room temperature. Remove the
catalyst guard and set aside for re-installation
after the catalyst has been cleaned.
B: Handling catalyst: Care should be taken so
that the catalyst is not dropped or damaged
in handling. If the unit is going to be handled
soon after a cooking cycle, care should be
taken to protect one’s hands from any hot
surfaces by wearing gloves designated for this
purpose. There are no moving parts or electrical
hookups associated with the catalyst, therefore

temperature before starting the cleaning process.
C: Operation: Understand and follow the system
instructions provided with the broiler included
in the installation and operations manual. It
is very important that you make sure that the
ducts above the cooking appliance are clean of
any grease, prior to the initial operation of the
appliance with the catalytic converter in place.
