Melt Cap; Surface Grates - Jenn-Air JGD3536GB Use & Care Manual

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas
tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free
of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the
gas tube by always using a burner cap.

Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and
shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is blue in
color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills,
food, cleaning agents, or any other material to enter the burner ports.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are OFF and
the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach,
or rust removers.
1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean
according to the "General Cleaning" section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do not
enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the
burner needs to be adjusted, contact a trained repair specialist.
4. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins
are properly aligned with the burner cap. Each round burner
cap is marked with letters indicating the burner size. Place
the burner caps on the appropriate burner bases.
IMPORTANT: The bottom of the small and medium caps are
different. Do not put the wrong size burner cap on the burner
base.
5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, verify the
burner cap placement and check cap and burner base
alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the
sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

Melt Cap

For melting chocolate or butter or an even more delicate simmer, the
melt cap can be used in place of the standard burner cap. The melt
cap should only be used on the small burner (right rear). Remove the
small burner cap and replace it with the larger melt cap for delicate
simmering. For less delicate simmering, use the small cap.

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. See cooktop illustrations in the
"Parts and Features" section for proper grate positioning.
Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually lose
their shine and/or discolor due to the high temperatures of the
gas flame.
