top
Burner Grates
Grates should be washed in hot, soapy water and
rinsed with clean water. To soften burned-on food,
place grates in a plastic bag containing ¼-cup of
household ammonia for several hours. Afterward, scrub
grates with a plastic scouring pad soaked in hot, soapy
water. Rinse well and dry.
When replacing the grates, be sure to locate them
correctly on the cooktop. Grates are identified by the
words
LEFT
and
RIGHT
on their bottom surfaces. Grate
should fit securely into the cooktop.
Grates will gradually lose their shine due to their
continual exposure to high temperatures.
