Y)ur range has three proti_ssional-s_'le
double grates. These grates are position-
specific. For maximum stability, these grates
should only be used in their i)roper
position; they cmmot be interchanged left
to right or front to back. For convenience,
the trades,ides ot the let* and right grates
are marked "I.EI_T FRONT" and "IUGHT
FRONT." Make Stli'e the fl'ont pmtion of
both grates is in fl'ont. The middle grate has
a bow in fl'ont. Make sure the bowed
portion is towards the fl'ont of the range.
Cleaning
Lift out when cool. Grates should be
washed regularly and, el comse, after
spillove_s. Wash them in hot, soapy water
and _inse with clean water: X4]_en replacing
the grates, be sm'e they are positioned
secm'ely over the bm'ne_s. ]?,el)lace the
grates so that continuous arcs are fimned
with the center fibs of all three grams.
Do
not opel'ate a btli'nei" 1[()i" }111 extended
period ot time without cookware on the
grate. The finish on the grate may chip
without cookware to absorb the heat.
To get rid ot bm'ned-on toed, place the
grates in a covered container. Add l/4 cup
ammonia and let them soak several hems
or overnight. Wash, rinse well and d_a'.
Mthough they are din'able, the grates will
gradually lose their shine, regardless ot the
best care you can give them. This is due
to their continual exposm'e to high
temperatures. You will notice this
sooner with lighter color grates.
NOTE: Do not clean the grates in a self-cleaning
oven.

sm'fi_ce of the cooktop and to prevent it
from becoming dull, clean up spills right

sauerkraut, fl'tfitjtrices, etc.) or toods with
high sugar content could cause a dull spot if
allowed to set.

etc., wash with soap and water once the
surfi_ce has cooled. Then rinse and polish
