Shipping screws

A screw holds each of the burners in place to keep them from wobbling around during shipment. Remove and discard the shipping screw.

Cooktop Burners

You should clean the burners routinely, especially after bad spillovers which could clog these holes. Burners lift out for cleaning if the shipping screw was removed at installation.

To remove burners:

Remove shipping screw

Air shutter

Gas valve

 

orifice

Grasp burner head and tilt it to the right to release the two tabs from slots in the burner support

(A and B).

Lift the end of the burner assembly, then pull away from the front of the range to free the air shutter from the gas valve orifice.

To remove burned-on food, soak the burners in a solution of mild liquid detergent and water. Soak the burner for 20 to 30 minutes. If the food doesn’t rinse off completely, scrub them with soap and water and a brush or plastic pad.

Do not use steel wool or abrasive cleansers because they will clog the burner openings and scratch the burners.

If the holes become clogged, clean them with a small safety pin or a small sewing needle.

Do not attempt to clean burners in an automatic dishwasher. Loosened food soil can clog burner holes, and the strong action of the dishwasher detergent can damage the burner heads.

Before putting the burners back, shake out excess water and dry them thoroughly by setting them in a warm oven for 30 minutes.

To replace burners:

Slip the air shutter over the gas valve orifice.

Lower the burner assembly and hook the tabs in the slots in the burner support.

Be sure both tabs are in their slots, that the burner sits level and straight, and that the flash tube forms a straight line from the igniter to

the burner.
