The top should pull off it's just a cover so nothing falls in. I pull a clip on the side and the top pulls off x

A long head paint brush will do it for the top of the grid of you don’t want to take it off, then use a hairdryer to blow down the grids.

Wait til it’s cool. Take the ends off, then the grill at the top. Put a washing up bowl underneath spray with elbow grease and pour a jug of hot soapy water from the top. Don’t forget to move the washing up bowl as you’re doing it obviously lol.
