with a letter indicating the burner size. See the following
illustration for burner positions.

Each round burner cap is marked with a letter indicating
the burner size. Replace the burner cap, making sure it is
properly aligned with the burner base. The burner cap
should not rock or wobble when properly aligned.
IMPORTANT:
The bottom of the small and medium caps
are different. Do not put the wrong size burner cap on the
burner base.

Medium cap (M)
Large cap (L)
6.
Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap
alignment. If the burner still does not light, turn off the
burner. Do not service the burner yourself. Contact a trained
repair specialist.
Surface Grates
The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. In the
proper position, the grates should be flush and level. Improper
installation of the grates may result in chipping or scratching
of the cooktop.
To ensure proper positioning, align bumpers on grate bottom
with the indentations in the cooktop.
The surface grates interlock using the hook on one end of the
grate and the indent on the other. To remove the grates, lift the
rear of the left grate off the hook, and then lift the front of the
right grate off the hook and pull apart. To replace the grates,
replace the left grate first. Place the front indent of the right
grate over the hook of the left grate, and then lift the rear of
the left grate and place the indent over the hook on the right
grate.
Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually
lose their shine and/or discolor due to the high temperatures
of the gas flame.
