Questions about this item
How do I know the 163/4" x 37/8" porcelain steel heat plate is working after I install it?
After installation the burner should be fully covered by the plate. Light the grill and watch for an even orange glow across the cooking surface with no hot spots or sudden flare-ups when grease drips.
What comes in the box and do I need to buy any extra hardware for the 97311 heat plate?
The box contains the single porcelain-coated steel heat plate only. No screws, brackets or tools are included, but the direct-fit design uses the grill's existing mounting points so nothing extra is required.
My grill uses part number 60015755 — should I choose this 97311 plate or a different version?
This 97311 plate replaces 60015755 along with 60068050, 60085334, 381068300, 919731117 and 75954973113, so it is the correct version for any grill listing those numbers.
