Standard cleaning gas range

Surface
burners
1. Lift up
the cooktop, following the instruc-
tions above.
2. Before cleaning,
remove screws that
hold each of the burners in place. The
screws prevent the burners from moving
during shipment. Remove the shipping
screws with a Phillips screwdriver,
lift the
burner up, tilt it to one side at the end
closest to the ignitor and move it toward
the back of the range. This separates the
burner from the gas valve at the front of
the range, so it can be easily removed.
3. Wipe off surface burners with warm,
soapy water and a sponge after each use.
To remove cooked-on
food, soak the
burners in a vinegar and water solution for
20-30 minutes. Scrub with a plastic
scrubbing pad.
4. If ports are clogged,
clean with a
straight
pin. DO NOT enlarge or distort
the ports. DO NOT use a toothpick
to
clean the ports.
5. Before putting
the burners
back, dry
them thoroughly
by setting them in a
warm oven for 30 minutes.
6. Replace burners, making sure they are
properly seated and level. Replace
screws.
7. Occasionally
check the burner flames
for proper size and shape as shown. A
good flame is blue in color. If flames lift off
ports, are yellow, or are noisy when
turned off, you may need to clean the
burners (see above), or call a qualified
technician for adjustment.
