On the non-Canadian versions that lining is hinged at the rear so that you
can lower it down separately from the stove/sink lid.  It then covers the
stove grates and forms a drainboard that drains into the sink.

Aww, I'm sorry.  When it's stowed it just acts like a stainless skin inside
the stove cover, same profile as the top and front of the cover.  To use it
you reach up and pull the near edge -- it then folds down and rests on that
same near edge, covering the stove grates but not touching them.  Does that
help?  Anybody want to send me a digi-camera? <g>
