If ports on the burners are clogged, clean with a straight pin. Do not enlarge or distort the ports. Do not use a toothpick to clean the ports. When replacing burner caps, carefully align the tabs underneath the cap with the outside edge of burner. Make sure burner cap is level. Occasionally check the burner for proper size and shape. If flames lift off ports, are yellow, or are noisy when turned on, you may need to clean the burners or call a qualified technician for adjustment.

2.Lift off the burner grates.

3.Remove the burner cap and clean per instructions below.

Burner Caps

The surface burner caps should be routinely removed and cleaned. Always clean the burner caps after a spill over. Keeping the burner caps clean will prevent improper ignition and uneven flames. To clean, pull burner cap straight up from the burner base. Wipe off surface burner caps with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after each use. Use a a non-abrasive cleanser such as Bon AmiTM and a soft brush or soft Scotch BriteTM pad for cooked-on foods. Dry thoroughly after cleaning. For best cleaning and to avoid possible rusting, do not clean in dishwasher or self-cleaning oven. When replacing burner caps, carefully align the tabs underneath the cap with the outside edge of burner. Make sure burner cap is level.

Control Knobs

MAKE SURE THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF POSITION BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in detergent and warm water. Do not soak knobs. Dry completely and replace by pushing firmly onto stem. DO NOT USE any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the knob.

DO NOT USE any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the control panel. Use hot, soapy water and a soft clean cloth.

Sealed Burner Aluminum Base (If applicable)

The aluminum base should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of each cooling period. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleanser, or powders. To remove encrusted materials, soak the area with at hot towel to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other material tool to scrape the aluminum base. NOTE: For stubborn stains, use non- abrasive cleanser such as Bon AmiTM and a soft brush or soft Scoth BriteTM pad.

Griddle/Simmer Plate

1.After using the griddle, always remove the drip pan located below it by pulling the drip pan toward you. The drip pan needs to be cleaned after each use of the griddle. Cooked-off grease will drain from the griddle through the drain tube and accumulate in the drip pan. Wash in hot soapy water or with an antibacterial cleaner. The drip pan needs to be cleaned after each use. If grease is permitted to accumulate, fire hazard could occur, since the griddle burners are directly above the pan.

2.Rub the surface of a hot griddle with unsalted solid shortening, vegetable oil or spray it with a non-stick cooking spray. Thoroughly wipe it with a burlap or another rough cloth to remove food particles and other residue.

3.Stubborn spots may be removed by rubbing the surface with a rough grained nylon scrubbing pad with cooking oil. If necessary, flush the surface of a warm griddle (200oF/93oC) with club soda and wipe over entire surface with a paper towel. Coat lightly with cooking oil.

4.Special griddle cleaners are commercially available which may be used to remove heavy soil build-up. Follow manufacturer’s directions exactly. Rinse the griddle with room temperature club soda after using these cleaners. Dry and coat lightly with cooking oil. Use griddle stones only when absolutely necessary and then with extreme caution. Wipe away any griddle-stone dust and food particles and coat lightly with cooking oil.

5.Using hot soapy water to clean the griddle will remove the cooked- in seasoning and will require re-seasoning by coating lightly with cooking oil.

6.Never flood a hot griddle with cold water! This promotes griddle warping and can cause the griddle plate to crack if continued over a period of time.
