Possible Causes

Clogged grease channel, Overfilled or missing grease bucket, Warped or misaligned drip tray, Excess grease buildup

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the grill to cool before cleaning grease.

  • Inspect grease bucket: Ensure the bucket is installed, not full, and properly hooked to the drain spout.
  • Clean drain channel: Use a scraper or brush to clear the grease channel leading to the bucket.
  • Check drip tray: Verify the tray is not warped and is correctly positioned to direct grease into the channel.
  • Deep clean: Remove accumulated grease from the bottom of the cabinet and interior surfaces.

Replace a damaged or warped drip tray if it cannot be aligned to drain correctly.
