CARE AND MAINTENANCE

BURNERS

For proper lighting and performance keep the burners clean. It is necessary to clean the burners if they
do not light even though the igniter clicks, if there has been a severe boil over, or when the flame does
not burn blue.
Be certain all burner knobs are in the OFF position before attempting to clean the burners.The burners
have been designed for ease in cleaning. 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 the previous page
that were given for the burner
grates. A bristle brush can be used
to clean out the toothed burner
ports, if necessary. Disassembly of
the Simmer Ring is
recommended, however, it may
become necessary to do so if the
ports remain clogged after normal
cleaning. If it is necessary to
disassemble 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
corresponding hole in the Base
and that the Locating Pin (see
insert) 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.

IGNITERS

Wipe with a water-dampened cotton swab. Be careful not to damage
the igniter. (See illustration)
CONTROL KNOBS – COOKTOP AND OVEN
These are plastic and can be cleaned in hot, soapy water. To remove the
knobs from the control panel, grasp the knob and pull straight forward.
Wash, do not soak. Rinse and dry thoroughly. It is important to replace
these knobs on the correct gas valve on the control panel.
