soapy water and rinse with clean water. You
may scour with a plastic scouring pad to
remove burned-on food particles.
Burner heads
For proper ignition, make sure the small hole in
the section that fits over the electrode is kept
open. A sewing needle or wire twist-tie works
well to unclog it.
Theslits in the burner heads must be kept clean

Clogged or dirty burner ports or electrodeswill
not allow the burner to operate properly.
Any spill on or around an electrode must
be carefully cleaned. Take care to not hit an
electrode with anything hard or it could be
damaged.
You should clean the burner caps and burner
heads routinely, especially after bad spillovers,
which could clog the openings in the burner
heads. Lift off when cool.
To remove burned-on food, soak the burner
heads in a solution of mild liquid detergent
and hot water for 20-30 minutes. For more
stubborn stains, use a toothbrush.
After cleaning
Before putting the burner caps and heads back,
shake out excess water and then dry them
thoroughly by setting in a warm oven for 30
minutes.
NOTE:Do not use steel wool or scouring
powders to clean the burners.
Make sure the slot in the burner head is
positioned over the electrode.
