Burner Grates

Your range has three professional-style
double grates. These grates are position-
specific. For maximum stability, these grates
should only be used in their proper
position; they cannot be interchanged left
to right or front to back. For convenience,
the undersides of the left and right grates
are marked "LEFT FRONT" and "RIGHT
FRONT." Make sure the front portion of
both grates is in front. The middle grate has
a bow in front. Make sure the bowed
portion is towards the front of the range.
Cleaning
Lift out when cool. Grates should be
washed regularly and, of course, after
spillovers. Wash them in hot, soapy water
and rinse with clean water. When replacing
the grates, be sure they are positioned
securely over the burners. Replace the
grates so that continuous arcs are formed
with the center ribs of all three grates.
Cooktop Surface
To avoid damaging the porcelain enamel
surface of the cooktop and to prevent it
from becoming dull, clean up spills right
away. Foods with a lot of acid (tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices, etc.) or foods with
high sugar content could cause a dull spot if
allowed to set.
When the surface has cooled, wash and
rinse. For other spills such as fat spatterings,
etc., wash with soap and water once the
surface has cooled. Then rinse and polish
with a dry cloth.
Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)
Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.
Shake bottle well.
Place a small amount of CERAMA
®
BRYTE Stainless Steel Appliance
Cleaner on a damp cloth or damp
paper towel.
Clean a small area (approximately
8" x 8"), rubbing with the grain of
the stainless steel if applicable.
Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper
towel or soft cloth.
Repeat as necessary.
NOTE: If a mineral oil-based stainless steel
appliance cleaner has been used before to clean
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.
To get rid of burned-on food, place the
grates in a covered container. Add 1/4 cup
ammonia and let them soak several hours
or overnight. Wash, rinse well and dry.
Although they are 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. You will notice this
sooner with lighter color grates.
NOTE: Do not clean the grates in a self-cleaning
oven.
NOTE: Do not store flammable materials in
an oven or near the cooktop. Do not store or
use combustible materials, gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance.
NOTE: Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop
can lead to damage and improper operation of the
range.
