Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners
To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt the cleaning
instructions provided below before turning OFF the
surface burners and provide sufficient time for the
cooktop and all cooktop parts to cool.
To clean recessed and contoured areas of cooktop
Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth
and wipe dry to avoid scratches. If a spill occurs on or in the
recessed or contoured areas, blot up spill with an absorbent
cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.
To clean burner grates
• Clean when the grates are cool.
• Use nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mild abrasive
cleanser.
• Food soils containing acids may affect the finish. Clean
immediately after the grates are cool.
• Thoroughly dry grates immediately following cleaning.

To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation of harmful
by-products, do not use the cooktop without all burner
i
caps properly installed to insure proper ignition and gas
flame size.
Always check for proper burner cap placement before
operating any surface burner. Also be sure and check
for correct burner cap placement after having removed
and replaced the burner caps for cleaning.
To clean burner caps
• Remove caps from burner heads after they have cooled.
• Clean heavy soils with a plastic scrubbing pad and
absorbent cloth.
• Thoroughly dry burner caps immediately following
cleaning including the bottom and inside of cap.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners. They can scratch
porcelain.
• Do not clean burner caps in the dishwasher.
When placing burner caps, be sure that all burner caps are
seated firmly and rest level on top of burner heads.
Refer to Figs. 2 & 3 for correct and incorrect burner cap
placement. Once in place, you may check the fit by gently
sliding the burner cap from side to side (Fig. 4) to be sure
it is centered and firmly seated. When the burner cap lip
makes contact inside the center of the burner head you
will be able to hear the burner cap click. Please note that
the burner cap should NOT move off the center of the
burner head when sliding from side to side. Check and be
sure that all oval style (some models) burner caps are
correctly in place on oval burner heads.
