Sealed Burner Assemblies

CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE
BURNER WITHOUT ALL BURNER
PARTS AND DRIP PANS (IF SO EQUIPPED)
IN PLACE.
The burner assemblies should be washed regularly
and, of course, after spillovers.
Turn all controls OFF before removing burner parts
and drip pans (if so equipped).
The burner grates, caps, burner heads and drip pans
(if so equipped) can be lifted off, making them easy to
clean.
The electrode of the
spark igniter is
exposed. When
one burner is turned
to LITE, all the burners""
spark. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner while
another burner is on. An electric shock may result,
which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.

Dual Burners
(on some models)
On models with dual burners, the cooktop lifts up for
easy access.
The holes in the surface burners of your range must
be kept clean at all times for proper ignition and an
even, unhampered flame.
You should clean the surface burners routinely,
especially after bad spillovers, which could clog these
holes. Wipe off surface burners. If heavy spillover
occurs, remove the surface burners from range.
Burners lift out for cleaning. Lift up the cooktop and
then lift out the surface burners.
To remove burned-on food, soak the surface burner in
a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water. Soak
the surface burner for 20 to 30 minutes. For more
stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft Scrub" brand
or Bon Ami@ brand. Rinse well to remove any traces
of the cleanser that might clog the surface burner
openings. Do not use steel wool because it will clog
the surface burner openings and scratch the surface
burners. If the holes become clogged, clean them with
a toothpick.
Before putting the surface burner back, shake out
excess water and then dry it thoroughly by setting it in
a warm oven for 30 minutes. Then place it back in the
range, making sure it is properly seated and level.
