COOKTOP - CONVENTIONAL BURNERS
The freestanding range featuring conventional surface
burners has a lift-up cooktop for easy cleaning of the
burner box area.
To raise the “lift-up” cooktop:
When cool, grasp the
front edge of the cooktop and gently lift up until the two
support rods at the front of the cooktop snap into place.
To lower the top:
Hold the front edge of the cooktop and
carefully push back on each support rod to release the
notched support. Then gently lower the top into place. The
support rods will slide into the cooktop frame.
COOKTOP - SEALED BURNERS
The sealed burner cooktop is designed with two contour
wells to catch and contain spills. Because of this design it
is not necessary to lift up the cooktop to clean
underneath. To prevent damage to the gas tubing or top,
do not attempt to lift or remove the cooktop.
NOTE:
The cooktop on a slide-in range does NOT lift-up.
BURNER GRATES
Burner grates must be properly
positioned before cooking. Burner grates
are durable but may gradually lose their
shine due to usage and high
temperatures.
Grates for the porcelain cooktop are
square. When installing square grates,
place indented sides together so straight
sides are at front and rear.
CAUTION:
Do not operate a surface burner without a
pan on the grate. The porcelain finish on the grate may
chip without a pan to absorb the intense heat from the
burner flame.

DISCONNECT POWER TO RANGE. Be sure the bulb
