specific. For maximum stability, these grates
should only be used ill their l)roper
position; they cannot be ii_terchanged left
to right or fl'ont to back. For coi_velfience,
the tmdelsides ot the lett aim right grates
are inarked "I,EVT FRONT" and "PdGHT
FRONT." Make sure the fl'ont i)ortion of
both grates is in fl'ont. The middle grate has
a bow in fl'ont. Make sure the bowed
portion is towards the front of the range.

washed regularly and, el comse, after

and rinse with clean water: _4]_en replacing
the grates, be sm'e they are positioned
secm'ely over the burne_. Replace the
grates so that contintmus arcs are flmned
with the center fibs of all three grates.
Do
not opel'ate a btlYner lk)r an extended
period ot time without cookware on the

Mthough they are din'able, the grates will
gradually lose their shine, regardless ot the
