Cleaning the Burner Caps

Wash burner caps in hot, soapy water and rinse with 

clean water. You may scour with a plastic scouring pad 

to remove burned-on food particles. The round burner 

caps may also be cleaned in your dishwasher.

Cleaning the Burner Heads

Wash the burner heads routinely, especially after bad 

spillovers which could clog the burner openings. Lift 

burners off when cool. Wash with hot, soapy water. Rinse 

with clean water. For more stubborn stains, use a brush 

with plastic bristles.

NOTE:

 Do not use steel wool or scouring pads to clean 

the burner parts as these may clog the openings. Never 

wash burner heads in your dishwasher as dishwasher. 

Doing so may cause them to discolor.
The ports in the burner heads must be kept clean at all 

times for an even, unhampered flame.
Clogged or dirty burner ports or electrodes will not allow 

the burner to operate properly.

Replacing Surface Burners

Before replacing

 the burner caps, heads and oval head/

cap assembly, shake out excess water and allow them to 

dry thoroughly.
Replace burner heads in the correct locations according 

to size. Ensure each cap is properly seated on the 

burner head, as pictured below.

CAUTION

 

Do not operate the cooktop without 

all burner parts and grates in place.

Any spill on or around an electrode must be carefully 

cleaned. Avoid hitting the electrode with anything hard or 

it could be damaged.

The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed 

when the burner head is removed. When one 

burner is turned to LITE, all the burners spark. 

Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around 

any burner while another burner is on.
