Cleaning the Cooktop (Cont.)
Cleaning the Surface Burners
Cleaning the Burner Caps
Wash burner caps in hot, soapy water and rinse with
clean water. You may scour with a plastic scouring pad
to remove burned-on food particles. The round burner
caps may also be cleaned in your dishwasher.
Cleaning the Burner Heads
Wash the burner heads routinely, especially after bad
burners off when cool. Wash with hot, soapy water.
Rinse with clean water. For more stubborn stains, use a
brush with plastic bristles.
NOTE: Do not use steel wool or scouring pads to clean
the burner parts as these may clog the openings. Never
wash burner heads in your dishwasher. Doing so may
cause them to discolor.
The ports in the burner heads must be kept clean at all
times for an even, unhampered flame.
Clogged or dirty burner ports or electrodes will not allow
the burner to operate properly.

Cleaning Knobs
For easier cleaning, the control knobs may be removed
by pulling them directly upwards once the knobs are in
the OFF position. The knobs can be washed by hand
with soap and water or in a dishwasher.
To replace knobs after cleaning, align the hole on the knob
backside with the gas valve shaft and push downward
until the knob is securely fastened. All knobs are
interchangeable except control lockout (on some models).
