Caring for your
cooktop
Your cooktop is designed for ease of care.
You can do most cleaning with items found
around the home. Cleaning your cooktop
whenever spills or soiling occur will help to
keep it looking and operating like new.
NOTES:
•
Before cleaning make sure all controls are
off and the cooktop is cool.
•
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion
and ventilation air around the burner grates
edges.
Cleaning the surface burners
•
You should routinely remove and clean the
burner cap. Always clean the burner cap
after a spill-over. Keeping the burner cap
clean prevents poor ignition and an
uneven flame.
•
For the proper flow of gas and ignition of
the burner, do not allow spills, food,
cleaning agents, or any other material
to enter the gas tube opening or burner
ports.
•
Gas must flow freely through the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly.
Keep this area free of any soil and protect
it from boilovers or spillovers. Always
keep the burner cap in place whenever a
surface burner is in use.
•
Let the cooktop cool before cleaning.
•
Do not use oven cleaners, bleach, or rust
removers.
•
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
•
Occasionally check the burner flames for
proper size and
shape as shown. A
good flame is blue
in color not yellow.
If the flames are not
burning at all ports,
you may need to
clean the burner
ports.

To clean the burners:
1.
Remove the burner cap from the burner
base.
2.
Clean the burner cap with warm, soapy
water and a sponge. You can also clean it
with a mildly abrasive scrubbing pad or
cleanser. Do not clean the burner cap in a
dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.
3.
If the gas tube opening has become
soiled or clogged, use a damp cloth to
clean the area.
4.
If the burner ports are clogged, clean
them with a
straight pin. Do
not enlarge or dis-
tort the port. Do
not use a wooden
toothpick. If the
burner needs to be
adjusted, call a
qualified technician
for service.
5.
After cleaning the gas tube opening and
ports, replace the burner cap. To replace
the burner cap, make sure the alignment
pins on the cap are properly aligned with
the burner base.
6.
Turn on the burner to see if it will light. If
the burner does not
light after you have
cleaned it, recheck
cap alignment or
contact a
designated service
technician. Do not
service the sealed
burner yourself.
