To avoid possible burns use care when cleaning the cooktop. DO NOT attempt to clean the cooktop whenever the cooktop or burner heads are still hot.

To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt any of the cleaning instructions provided below before turning OFF all of the surface burners and allow them to cool.

The cooktop and surface burners are designed to make cleaning easier. Since cooktop surface burners are sealed, cleanups are easy when spillovers are cleaned up immediately. Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry to avoid scratches. The contoured well areas and burner drip pans (some models) should be frequently cleaned also.

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 clean the burner grates, burner caps & burner drip pans (some models)

Use a soap=filled scouring pad or a mild abrasive cleanser to clean the burner grates, burner caps and surface burner drip pans (if equipped).

To clean the burner head ignition ports

Each burner head has a small ignition port located as shown in Fig.1 Should you experience ignition problems it may be that this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port.

To clean the surface burner heads

For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner head and slots. To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the burner slots using a small non-abrasive brush like a toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth. For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean.

Important Notes: The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and must be cleaned in place on the cooktop.

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 orifice holder opening. Always keep the surface burner cap and surface burner head in place whenever a surface burner is in use.
