Care & Cleaning
Cleaning the Contoured Cooktop Well Areas, Burner Cap, Burner Head and Burner Drip Pans
(some models)
The contoured well areas, burner cap, burner head and burner drip pans (some models) should be routinely cleaned. Keeping the burner ports clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. Refer to the following instructions:
THE COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.
Use caution when replacing the burner cap so the electrode is not damaged. This may cause a delayed ignition or prevent the burner from igniting.
To Clean the Recessed & Contoured Areas of the Cooktop - If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured areas, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.
To Remove & Replace the Surface Burner Caps & Surface Burner Heads - Remove in the following order: (1st) surface burner grate, (2nd) surface burner cap, (3rd) surface burner head and (4th) surface burner drip pan (if equipped).
Reverse the procedure above to replace the surface burner cap, surface burner head and surface burner drip pans (if equipped). Do not remove any parts from the cooktop until they have completely cooled and are safe to handle. Do not operate the surface burners without the surface burner cap and surface burner head properly in place.
To Clean the Surface Burner Cap, Surface Burner Head & Surface Burner Drip Pan (if equipped) - Use a
AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER OPENING. ALWAYS keep the surface burner cap and surface burner head in place whenever a surface burner is in use.
