These grates are position-specific. For maximum stability, these gratesshould only be used in their proper position;they cannot be interchanged left to rightor front to back. For convenience, theundersides of the left and right grates aremarked “LEFT FRONT” and “RIGHT FRONT.”Make sure the front portion of both grates isin front. The middle grate has a bow in front.Make sure the bowed portion is toward thefront of the range. In addition, the middlegrate is supported by the left and right gratesand must be installed LAST for stability.CleaningLift out when cool.
