Burner Caps and Heads

Before removing the burner caps and heads,
remember their size and location. Replace them in
the same location after cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use steel wool or scouring powders to
clean the burner parts.
Burner caps
Lift off when cool. 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.
Burner Heads and Oval (Center) Burner
Head/Cap Assembly
The burner heads and the oval burner head/cap
assembly are removable. Simply lift them off the
range for cleaning.
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.
The slits 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.
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.
Clean the burner heads routinely, especially
after bad spillovers, which could clog the
openings. 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, heads and
oval head/cap assembly back, shake out
excess water and then dry them thoroughly
by setting in a warm oven for 30 minutes.
