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 catalyist 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. The
following considerations are specic 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 there should be no danger
of a shock hazard when washing the unit. Allow
the catalyst to cool to room 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. IF NATURAL
GAS IS PART OF THE EXHAUST STREAM, BE
SURE THAT THE NATURAL GAS DOES NOT
BUILD UP TO AN EXPLOSIVE MIXTURE IN THE
EXHAUST SYSTEM.
Gently tap frame of the catalyst while holding
over a waste bin to dislodge any loose
ash/carbon particles.
