SEALED BURNERS

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.)

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.

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.
