Burner Grates; Stainless Steel; Before You Call For Service - GE Monogram ZGU3650 Use And Care Manual

Burner
Cast-iron burner grates should be washed
regularly and, of course, after spillovers.
grates
Wash them in hot, soapy water and rinse with
clean water. Dry the grates with a cloth—don't
put them back on the cooktop wet. When
replacing the grates, be sure they're positioned
securely over the burners.
To get rid of burned-on food, place the grates
in a covered container or plastic bag. Add 1/4
cup ammonia and let them soak for 30 minutes.
Wash, rinse well, and dry.
To prevent rusting, apply a light coating of
cooking oil on the bottom of the grates.
Stainless
Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.
Steel
Clean with hot soapy water. Rinse and dry.
Surfaces
If food soil remains, try a general kitchen
(on some models)
cleaner, such as Fantastik
Formula 409
For hard to clean soil, use a standard stainless
steel cleaner, such as Bon-Ami
can be soaked several hours with wet towels.
Apply cleaner with a damp sponge, rinse
thoroughly, and dry. Always scrub lightly in
the direction of the grain.

Downdraft Gas Cooktop
Although they're durable, the grates will
gradually lose their shine, regardless of the
best care you can give them. This is due to
their continual exposure to high
temperatures.
Do not operate a burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the grate.
The finish on the grate may chip without
cookware to absorb the heat.
After cleaning, use a stainless steel polish, such
as Stainless Steel Magic
