Use and Care Guide

Your ring grates, top grates and burner heads may darken over time with use. This is normal.

TIP: To prevent your burners from darkening at an uneven rate, rotate the ring grate and top grates between more and

less active burners.

BURNER CLEANING

Ring Grates and Top Grates

TIP: Clean spills as soon as possible to prevent sticking and build up.

 When burner is cool, remove the ring grate, top grate and center filler grate (30” models only).

 Wash in hot, soapy water. Rinse well and dry thoroughly to prevent rusting.

 Handle gently to prevent nicks/chips, which can lead to rusting

TIP: If you have a nick or chip you can season the area to prevent rusting. Nicks or chips are not covered under warranty.

 Put corn oil or other high smoke point oil on a paper towel and rub onto rusted area.

 Wipe away excess oil and replace the part on the range.

Do not submerge the burner grates in water for extended periods of time. Prolonged exposure to moisture

may cause rusting.

 For heavy soiling, use a commercially available oven cleaner. Follow the cleaner manufacturer’s

instructions.

Make sure the cleaning chemicals do not contact any stainless steel or painted surface on your

appliance.

 Reinstall grates in cooktop and make sure they are seated properly, and do not move unsteadily from side

to side.

Burner Caps (Sealed Burner Models Only)

Burner caps locations are specific to the valves on the front of the unit. If burner caps are removed for

cleaning or other purposes, they must be re-installed in the same location they were removed from.
