General Care & Cleaning
Cleaning the Burner Grates
The burner grates are dishwasher safe and may be cleaned in the dishwasher. Remove any excessive soils before
placing in the dishwasher.
IMPORTANT
●
For proper gas fl ow and ignition of the burners — DO NOT allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to
enter the gas orifi ce opening.
●
The cooktop is not removable. DO NOT attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.
To avoid possible burns use care when cleaning the cooktop. DO NOT attempt to clean the cooktop
whenever the cooktop or burner heads are still hot.
To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt any of the following cleaning instructions provided before turning
OFF all of the surface burners and allow them to cool.
To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt to operate the surface burners without the burner caps
Before using your gas appliance be sure to:
●
Follow installation instructions before operating.
●
Remove all packing tape from cooktop area.
●
Properly install the bridge burner and burner caps (See page 6).
Cleaning the Burner Caps
Should you ever need to remove the burner caps for cleaning, lift the burner cap off the burner head. Clean heavy soils
with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and immediately thoroughly dry including the bottom and inside of
the cap. DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners. They can scratch the porcelain on the cap. DO NOT clean burner caps in
dishwasher.
IMPORTANT - When placing the burner caps on the cooktop, be sure the burner caps are seated firmly on top of burner
heads. Improper flame size and uneven heating may result when any surface burners are turned ON and the burner caps
are not seated correctly.
Cleaning the Burner Heads
Lift the burner cap from the burner head. The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and must be cleaned in
place (except for the bridge burner, which is removable. See bridge burner assembly section for proper installation).
For proper gas fl ow it may be necessary to clean the burner heads and slots. To clean, fi rst use a clean DAMP cloth to
soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a toothbrush and
afterwards wipe using a damp cloth. For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean.
Should you experience ignition problems it may be that an ignition port hole is partially blocked with soil (see Fig. 1). With
the burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port or ports.
