Cleaning
the Cooktop,
Burner
Heads, Caps & Grates
The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because the gas Burners are sealed, cleanups are easy when spillovers
are cleaned up immediately.
The cooktop, Burner Heads and Caps should be routinely cleaned. Keeping the Burner Head Ports clean will prevent
improper ignition and an uneven flame. Refer to the following instructions:
THE COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE.
Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.
THE FIXED OVEN VENT IS NOT REMOVABLE.
Do not attempt to remove the fixed
oven vent cover.
Use caution when replacing the Burner Caps so the Electrodes are not damaged. This may cause a
delayed ignition or prevent the burner from igniting.
Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to perform satisfactorily must
be made by Sears Service. Call 1-800-4-MY-HOME®
