Igniters

It is important to keep igniter port openings on burners clear and free of obstructions to avoid ignition failure and possible gas buildup. If the port openings are blocked, use a twist tie to remove food particles.

The igniter cap and stem can be cleaned with warm soapy water and a plastic scrubber. The wire electrode inside the cap can be cleaned with a small brush. Rinse and dry.

Griddle Accessory

DO NOT immerse a hot griddle in cold water.

Once the griddle has cooled, wash with soap or detergent in hot water in the sink. Be sure to remove all food residue before cooking on the griddle again.

Remove stubborn spots with a plastic scouring pad. For best results, use only those cleaning products which are recommended for use when cleaning non-stick surfaces. Do not use steel wool or coarse scouring pads.

DO NOT wash in a dishwasher.

Surface Burners

You should clean the surface burners routinely, especially after bad spillovers, which could clog these holes. Wipe off surface burners. If heavy spillover occurs, remove the surface burners from the cooktop. Burners lift out for cleaning.

To remove burned-on food, soak the surface burner in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water. Soak the surface burner for 20 to 30 minutes. For more stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft Scrub® brand or Bon Ami® brand. Rinse well to remove any traces of the cleanser that might clog the surface burner openings. Do not use steel wool because it will clog the surface burner openings and scratch the surface burners. If the holes become clogged, clean them with a sewing needle or twist tie.

Before putting the surface burner back, shake out excess water and then dry it thoroughly. Then place it back in the cooktop, making sure it is properly seated and level.

Check the flame pattern of each burner; if the flames are “jumpy” (not steady), clean the holes again with a sewing needle or twist tie.

Care and Cleaning

Porcelain Burner Basin

This area is located under the grill and surface burners and should be cleaned after each use of the grill.

To remove light soil, clean with soapy water or with a cleaner such as 409. For easier cleanup, soak paper towels in a household cleanser, lay in the burner basin and soak for at least a half-hour or longer.

To remove moderate soil, scrub with Comet, Bon Ami, a soft scrub cleanser or plastic scrubber.

To remove stubborn soil, spray with an oven cleaner. Let soak overnight.

Wipe clean. Rinse and dry.
