Your cooktop has professional style grates. These grates are designed for specific positions. These grates should only be used in their proper positions; they should not be interchanged. For your convenience, the undersides of the left and right grates are marked “OUTSIDE” and “INSIDE”. Make sure that the sides marked “OUTSIDE” are facing the outer edge of the cooktop and
the sides marked “INSIDE” are facing each other. All grates
should touch once they are
fully assembled on the cooktop surface.
For cooktops with three grates, make sure that the tabs on
“OUTSIDE” either side of the center grate edge
fit into the slots located on the “INSIDE” edge of the side grates.
Lift the burner grates out only when cool. Grates should be washed regularly and, of course, after spillovers. Wash them in the dishwasher or in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water. When replacing the grates, be sure they are positioned securely over the burners.
Although they are durable, the grates will gradually lose their shine, regardless of the best care you can give them. This is due to their continual exposure to high temperatures. You will notice this sooner with lighter color grates.
Do not operate a burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
