It is very important to be sure that all surface burner
caps and burner grates are properly installed and in the
correct locations before operating the appliance. Please

When ordering parts for or making inquires about your
range, always be sure to include the model and serial
numbers and a lot number or letter from the serial plate
of your cooktop.
Your serial plate also tells you the rating of the burners,
the type of fuel and the pressure the cooktop was

note that the burner heads are secured to the cooktop.
The cooktop is not removable. Do not attempt to remove
or lift the cooktop.
To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation
of harmful by-products, do not use the cooktop without
all burner caps properly installed to insure proper ignition
and gas flame size.
Always keep the burner caps and burner grates in place
whenever the surface burners are in use. DO not allow
spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to
enter the gas orifice holder openings.
Check and be sure the size of each burner cap matches
the size of the burner head. Check and be sure that all
round style burner caps are correctly in place on round
burner heads.
Check and be sure that all oval style burner caps are
correctly in place on oval burner heads (if equipped).
Check and be sure that all dual or twin style burner caps
are correctly in place on dual or twin heads (if equipped).
On round style burners, the burner cap lip (Figure 11)
should fit snug into the center of burner head and be
level. Refer to figures 12 & 13 for correct and incorrect
burner cap placement.
Once in place, you may check the fit by gently sliding
the burner cap from side to side (Figure 14) to be sure it
is centered and firmly seated. When the burner cap lip
makes contact inside the center of the burner head you
will be able to hear the burner cap click. Please note that
the burner cap should NOT move off the center of the
burner head when sliding from side to side.
