Burner Cap and Burner Base Placement
▯
After electrical connection is complete, place each
burner base on the corresponding location on the
cooktop. One of the three bars on the burner base
should line up with the notch and prevent the base
from rotating. The small hole or cutout near the edge
should also line up with the igniter. Pay special
attention to avoid damaging the igniter during
installation of the base. See Illustration below.
▯
Once each base is located and resting evenly, place
each burner cap on its correct burner base. See
Illustration.
▯
Place burner cap gently on top of base so that the
prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of
the burner cap.
▯
If the maintop is removed by a certified installer (for
example to check electrical or piping connection) the
panhead screws that were removed must be re-
installed to ensure proper functionality of burners.

Checking Burner Cap Placement
▯
Check to make sure that there is no gap between the
burner cap and burner base. See illustration below for
correct and incorrect placements of the burner cap.
▯
You may gently try to move the burner cap from side
to side to check if it is properly placed. If properly
placed, the cap will click from side to side as the
prongs hit the groove ridge.
