For more information on cleaning your SARKA grill, please read the
section “Cleaning your SARKA grill” on the following page.
Cleaning your Sarka Grill
Itiswisetocleanyourgrillperiodically.Acleangrillwilloperatemore
effectively,lookmoreattractiveandbeasaferunittogrillon.We
recommendthatthisisdoneatleastevery3months,however,youmaydo
iteveryweekifyouprefer.
Forheavybuild-upwerecommend“SARKA GRILL KLEEN“.Forlight
cleaningandpolishing,werecommend“SARKA STAINLESS CLEANER”. Both
productsmaybepurchasedfromyourlocaldealer.
For those who like to cover their grill for looks, we offer grill covers.
See your grill accessory chart at the bottom of this page for the proper
part number. Since our grills are made of 100% stainless steel, a cover
is not needed to maintain the life of the grill.
We do not recommend that you ever clean the catch pan with anything
more than a spatula. You will want a build up of drippings in the pan
for flavor. These also help avoid flare-ups. When the grill is used
properly, the build up in the catch pan will appear as a collection of
ash. This will absorb the grease and allow it to vaporize.
Itissuggestedthatwhencleaningthegrillexterioryouwipeinthesame
directionasthegrainofthesteel.Justasyouwouldsandwoodwiththe
grain,youwillwanttowipeinthesamedirectionasthebrushmarksofthe
stainlesssteel.Wipingagainstthegrainwillcausescratchestothesurface.
