Cooktop Operation
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Before using for the first time, you should clean your gas
cooktop thoroughly with hot water and a mild detergent.
Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. This removes any residual
oil and grease left on the surface from the manufacturing
process. Refer to care recommendations on pages 14–15.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before using your gas cooktop, check
that the surface burners are assembled correctly.
The use of proper cookware is very important. Refer to
cookware selection on page 16 for recommendations.
Burner Grates
The low-profile, cast iron continuous grates of your gas
cooktop are designed for a close fit. This enables you to
move pans easily from one burner to another without
having to lift the pan or have it tip over between the
grates. Each burner grate sets securely on dimples on
each corner of the burner pan. Refer to the illustration
below.
For 30"
(762)
and 36"
(914)
gas cooktops, the burner grates
are interchangeable, except for the single grate on the
36"
(914)
cooktop.
