5. Allow the grill to preheat to the set temperature before placing food inside.

Kookmodi:

Onderhoud en reiniging

Regelmatig schoonmaken:

• Grates and Griddle: The porcelain-coated grill grates and cast iron griddle are easy to clean. Allow them to cool, then scrape off any food residue and wash with warm, soapy water.
• Vetbeheer: Regularly empty and clean the grease bucket to prevent flare-ups.
• Interieur: Scrape down the interior of the grill and vacuum out any ash from the firepot and bottom of the grill after every few uses, once completely cooled.

Pelletopslag:
