Burner Head and Cap Replacement
Replace the burner head onto the burner base,
making sure that the head is properly oriented
over the burner base and the electrode. Make
sure to place the correct burner head on the
correct burner base and that the burner head
sits level on the burner base. The burner heads
are not interchangeable.
Replace the burner cap onto the burner head,
making sure to place the correct burner cap on
the correct burner head. The burner caps are
not interchangeable. Also, make sure that the
burner caps are properly seated on the burner
heads.

Make sure the slot in the burner head is positioned
over the electrode. The burner cap has three
to four pins. When replacing the cap, make sure
none of the pins sits in the stability chamber.
Make sure the hole in the burner head assembly
is positioned over the electrode and that the burner
head is fully inserted inside the burner base. A small
gap between the base and head is normal.

Burner Grates
Your cooktop has professional style grates.
These grates are designed for specific
positions. These grates should only be used
in their proper positions; they should not be
interchanged. For your convenience, the
undersides of
the left and right grates are marked “OUTSIDE”
and “INSIDE”. Make sure that the sides marked
“OUTSIDE” are facing the outer edge of the
cooktop and the sides marked “INSIDE” are
facing each other. All grates should
touch once they are
fully assembled on the
cooktop surface.
For cooktops with three grates, make
sure that the tabs on either side of
the center grate fit into the slots
located on the “INSIDE” edge of the
side grates.
Lift the burner grates out only when cool.
Grates should be washed regularly and, of
course, after spillovers. Wash them in the
dishwasher or in hot, soapy water and rinse
with clean water. When replacing the grates,
be sure they are positioned securely over the
burners.
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.
Do not operate a burner for an extended period
of time without cookware on the grate. The
finish on the grate may chip without cookware
to absorb the heat.
NOTE:
Do not clean the grates in a self-cleaning
oven
