Burner Grates - Danby DR202 Manual Del Propietário

CARE AND CLEANING OF THE RANGE

BURNER GRATES

Cleaning
• Lift out when cool. Grates should be washed regularly and, of course, after spillovers. Wash them in hot, soapy water
and rinse with clean water. When replacing the grates, be sure they are positioned securely over the burners.
• Replace the grates so that continuous arcs are formed with the center ribs of all three grates.
• Do not operate a burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The fi nish on the grate may
chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
• To get rid of burned-on food, place the grates in a covered container. Add 1/4 cup ammonia and let soak several hours
or ovenight. Wash, rinse well and dry.
• 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.
• NOTE: Do not clean the grates in a a self-cleaning oven.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your range has two or three professional-style double grates. These grates are position-
specifi c. For maximum stability, these grates should only be used in their proper position; they
cannot be interchanged left to right or front to back. For convenience, the undersides of the left
and right grates are marked "LEFT FRONT" and "RIGHT FRONT". Make sure the front portion
of both grates is in front. The middle grate has a bow in front. Make sure the bowed portion
is toward the front of the range. in addition, the middle grate is supported by the left nd right
grates and must be installed LAST for stability.
• To avoid damaging the porcelain-enamel surface of the cooktop and to prevent it from
becoming dull, clean up spills right away. Foods with a lot of acid (tomatoes, sauerkraut,
fruit juices, etc.) or foods with high sugar content could cause a dull spot if allowed to set.
• When the surface has cooled, wash and rinse. For other spills such as fat spatterings,
wash with soap and water once the surface has cooled. Then rinse and polish with a dry
cloth.
NOTE: For stainless steel cooktops, refer to the Stainless steel surfaces section.
•
• Never block the vents (air openings of the range.
They provide the air inlet and outlet that are neces-
sary for the range to operate properly with correct
combustion.
• Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop,
at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the
bottom of the range.
