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.
Griddles
Cast-Iron Reversible:
clean your cast-iron reversible
griddle with a stiff brush and hot water. Using soap is
not recommended, and harsh detergents should never
be used as they will remove the seasoning. Rinse with
hot water and dry thoroughly. Apply a light coat of
cooking oil to the griddle surface. Wipe off excess oil
with a paper towel.
Store in a cool, dry place.
Griddle Precautions:
If something has spilled under the griddle, it should be
cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent the spill from
getting baked onto the cooktop.
Do not allow grease to accumulate under the griddle as
it can be a fire hazard. Clean under the griddle with hot
soapy water as soon as it is cool.
Do not wash your griddle in the dishwasher.
Do not place your griddle in a microwave oven.
Grate Support Bumpers
If any of the rubber grate support bumpers in the cooktop
are missing or damaged, replacement parts can be
obtained by calling 1.800.GE.CARES.
To insert the new bumpers, simply place the
cone-shaped end of the bumper into the hole in the
cooktop and push down while gently twisting the bumper.
Cleaning the Grates in the Self-Clean Oven (on some models)
If your cooktop grates do
not
have rubber bumpers on
their bottom surface
and
your oven racks are coated
with black porcelain, your grates may be cleaned in
the oven using the self-clean cycle. If your grates have
rubber bumpers, do not attempt to clean your grates in
the oven. Doing so will destroy the rubber bumpers and
may affect the function of your surface burners.
Place oven racks in the positions labeled “
R
”, “
2
” and
“
4
” in the illustration. Place a single grate on each
rack. Follow instructions for the self-clean mode in the
Cleaning the Oven
section of this manual.
NOTE:
Use caution when removing the grates from the
oven after the self-clean cycle has ended. The grates
may still be hot.
After cleaning, you may notice a white residue on the
grates. Wipe it off with a damp sponge. If white spots
persist, wet the sponge with a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water.
Cleaning the Grates in a Dishwasher
Cooktop grates may be cleaned in the dishwasher. Place
them on the lowest rack of the dishwasher and run on a
heavy-duty cycle.
