BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Install burner grates
To install burner grates, place the grates flat-side down and
align them into the cooktop recess.
Figure 4: Proper grate installation
Using Proper Cookware
Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of
the cookware (See
Figure 5). Cookware should have flat
bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface
heating element (See
Figure 6).
• Make sure the burner grates are properly placed on
the cooktop before using the surface burners
(
Figure 4). The grates are designed to rest inside the
recess on the cooktop.
• Grates should rest flush against each other and
against the sides of the recess.
• Do not line the area underneath the grates or any part
of the cooktop with aluminum foil or with any other
lining.
SCC message in display
If the cooktop is used during a self-clean cycle, the oven
may turn off. The oven control display will show “SCC" for
5 seconds. The oven door will remain locked until the
oven has cooled down below cleaning temperature. If the
oven is below cleaning temperature, the user can start
another clean cycle immediately. If the oven is in cleaning
temperature range, another self-clean cycle can be set
once the door unlocks (up to 4 hours).
