4.3 Griddle Removal and Replacement

Depending on the model and FD number of the range, there are two
different procedures for griddle removal. The primary differences
between them are the brackets used. Both procedures are presented
here – for the griddle removal with removable brackets, and for the
griddle removal with fixed brackets.
Be sure to check QuickFinder for relevant information, documentation,
