Assembly of the Surface Burner Heads, Burner Caps, Burner Grates and Flue Covers

It is very important to make sure that all of the Surface Burner Heads, Surface Burner Caps and Surface Burner Grates are installed correctly and at the correct locations.

1.Place all 4 Burner Heads in the correct locations (See Figure 1). Make sure that the correct Burner Head is placed with the corresponding Orifice Holder and that the Electrode is located properly in the slot of each Burner Head (See Figure 2). Proper Burner Head placement insures that each Burner will have the correct spark required for surface gas ignition.

2.Place the correct Burner Caps at each of the burner locations (Burner Cap Pilot Hole must face up). Each of the 4 (four) Burner Heads MUST have a Burner Cap installed to insure proper ignition and gas flame size and must be in place with the Pilot Hole facing up BEFORE placing the Burner Grates (See Figure 2).

3.Place the 2 (two) cast iron Burner Grates supplied with the range. Carefully lineup the 2 Grate Pins on each Grate with the Cap Pilot Holes in the 2 Burner Caps on each side of the range. DO NOT force the Burner Grates onto the Burner Caps. Forcing the grates down onto improperly installed Burner Heads and Burner Caps may damage the gas burners. Each Burner Cap is designed with a Cap Pilot Hole in the top center of the Cap. Visually check that ALL the Grate Pins line up into the Burner Cap Pilot Holes (See Figure 2). Properly installed Burner Grates will rest with all four Grate legs on the glass cooktop.

4.Place the 2 (two) flue covers over the inner vent cover as shown on figure 3.

REMEMBER — DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD, CLEANING AGENTS

OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER OPENING. Always keep the Burner Caps and Burner Heads in place whenever the surface burners are in use.
