CAUTION:
Do not operate the burner without all burner parts in place.

assembly
The burner assemblies should be washed
regularly and, of course, after spillovers.
Turn all the controls to OFF before removing
the burner parts.
The electrode of the spark ignitor is exposed
beyond the top of the burner. When cleaning
the burner trays, be careful not to snag the
electrode of the spark ignitor with your cleaning
cloth. Do not hit the spark ignitor. Be careful not
to turn on any surface controls while cleaning
the burner trays. A slight electrical shock might
result which could cause you to knock over hot
cookware.
The burner grates, burner tops and trim rings
can be lifted off, making them easy to clean.
Removing them gives you access to the burner
bodies and burner trays.
To avoid snagging cloth on spark ignitors, leave
burner caps in place when cleaning burner
trays.
The burners have been designed in three pieces
for ease of cleaning. When the burner grate and
the burner are cool, remove the grate. The
center ring, the burner cap and the port ring
can easily be lifted off. Wash these parts in hot
soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.
The burner grates, center ring and the burner
cap are porcelain enamel. When cool they may
be wiped clean using hot soapy water, then
rinsed and wiped dry. When lifting the burner
grates be careful as they are heavy. Place them
on a protected surface, so they won’t scratch the
surface of the cooktop.
The port ring is brass; a bristle brush can be
used to clean out the toothed burner ports, if
necessary.
After cleaning, it is important to make sure the
locating pin on the bottom side of the brass port
ring is properly aligned with the corresponding
hole in the burner base. Incorrect alignment
will produce a potentially dangerous flame and
poor burner performance.
