The sealed burners of your cooktop are
secured to the cooktop and are not de-
signed to be removed. Since the burners
are sealed into the cooktop, boilovers or
spills will not seep underneath the cooktop.
However, the burner heads should be
cleaned after each use. The head portion of
the burner is easily removed for cleaning.
(See page 6 for cleaning directions.)

NOTES:
•
A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light within a few seconds. If using
natural gas, the flame will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.

If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas mixture may be incorrect. Contact
a service technician to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by the warranty.)
With LP gas, some yellow tips on the flames are acceptable. This is normal and
adjustment is not necessary.
•
With some types of gas, you may hear a "popping" sound when the surface burner
is turned off. This is a normal operating sound of the burner.
•
To improve cooking efficiency and to prevent possible damage to the range or pan,
the flame must be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.

The grates must be properly positioned
before cooking. Improper installation of
the grates may result in chipping of the
cooktop.
Do not operate the burners without a
pan on the grate. The grate's porce-
lain finish may chip without a pan to
absorb the heat from the burner
flame.
Although the burner grates are durable,
they will gradually lose their shine and/or
discolor, due to the high temperatures of
the gas flame.
