Cleaning the surface burners

l The burner caps should be routinely removed and cleaned. Always clean burner caps after a spillover. Keeping the burner caps clean prevents improper ignition and an uneven flame.

l For proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner, DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD,

CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS TUBE OPENING.

l Gas must flow freely through the small hole in the brass orifice for the burner to light properly. This area must be free of any soil and be kept protected from boilovers or spillovers. ALWAYS keep the burner caps in place whenever a surface burner is in use.

l Occasionally check the burner flames for proper size and shape as shown. A good flame is blue in color. if flames are uneven, you may need to clean the burners.

To clean burners:

1.Pull the burner cap straight up from the burner base.

2.Remove the burner pan.

3.Clean burner cap and pan with warm, soapy water and a sponge. You can also clean with a nonabrasive scrubbing pad or cleanser. Do not clean burner cap or pan in dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.
