Cleaning The Burners; Cleaning The Igniters - Fisher & Paykel DCS CDU Series Installation Instructions And User Manual

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE BURNERS:

For proper lighting and performance, keep the burners
clean and dry. It is necessary to clean the burners if they
do not light although the igniter clicks, whenever there
has been a severe boil over or when the flame doesn't burn
blue.
Be certain all burner knobs are in the OFF position before
attempting to clean the burners. When the grates and
burners are cool, remove the grate. The Burner Cap and the
Brass Port Ring can easily be lifted off. Wash these parts in
hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The Burner Caps
are porcelain enamel, follow the directions on page 18 that
were given to clean the burner grates. A bristle brush can
be used to clean out the toothed burner ports, if necessary.
Disassembly of the Simmer Ring is not recommended, how-
ever, it may become necessary to do so if the ports remain
clogged after normal cleaning. If it is necessary to disassem-
ble the Simmer Ring from the Base, remove the Hex Nut at
the top of the Simmer Ring. Clean the Simmer Ring with hot
soapy water using a soft wire or plastic bristle brush then
dry thoroughly. Re-assemble the parts using the Hex Nut.
After cleaning, it is important to make sure the Locating Pin
on the bottom side of the Simmer Ring is properly aligned
with the corresponding hole in the Base and that the Locating Pin (see above) in the bottom side of the Brass
Port Ring is properly aligned with the Locating Notch on the top side of the Simmer Ring. Incorrect alignment will
produce a potentially dangerous flame and poor burner performance. See the illustration above.

CLEANING THE IGNITERS:

Be certain all burner knobs are in the OFF position before attempting to clean the igniters. Gently wipe with an
alcohol dampened cotton swab and be careful not to damage the igniter.
