Memphis Grill Manual Rev. B 3
InitialBurnOff
Before cooking for the first time, we recommend thatyou“burn off” the grill to rid it of any
foreign matter used in the manufacturing process. Prior to burn‐off, completely remove the
plastic film on all stainless steel surfaces.Failure to do so will cause the
film to melt to the
metal,anditwillbeextremelydifficulttoremove.Removethecookinggratesandwashwitha
mild soapordetergent.Withthegratesremoved,lightandoperate the grill at 450F (in cook
mode) with the hood down for 20 minutes. After burn‐off, turn
the grill OFF and replace the
grates.
