COOKTOP CARE

Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless otherwise noted.

Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should be cleaned as soon as the entire appliance is cool. These spills may affect the finish.

Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging.

■Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish: See “Assistance or Service” section to order.

■Vinegar for hard water spots

TROUBLESHOOTING

Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.

Nothing will operate

■Has a household fuse been blown or has the circuit breaker been tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.

Surface burners will not operate

■Is this the first time the surface burners have been used? Turn on any one of the surface burner knobs to release air from the gas lines.

■Is the control knob set correctly? Push in knob before turning to a setting.

■Are the burner ports clogged? See “Surface Burners” section.

■Are the cooktop airflow ventilation louvers blocked? Make sure the louvers are free of any obstruction. Blocking the ventilation louvers will cause poor burner operation.

Surface burner flames are uneven, yellow and/or noisy

■Are the burner ports clogged? See “Sealed Surface Burners” section.

■On models with caps, are the burner caps positioned properly? See “Surface Burners” section.

■Is the burner damaged? On models with caps, look for a warped cap. If cap will not spin freely on a flat surface, painted side down, the cap is warped. Switch cap with a different surface burner to check for further warping. Contact a trained repair specialist.

■Is propane gas being used? The appliance may have been converted improperly. Contact a trained repair specialist.
