stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color. Machine

oils used in the manufacturing process of stainless

steel can also cause this tanning color. After removing

the protective PVC film from the Grill Lid and Control

stainless steel surfaces of your grill. Never use abra

and damage your grill. Follow these steps for the best
