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.

Safety Instructions

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.

Operating Instructions

Sealed Burner Module

Cooktop Surface:

To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining:

•Clean the cooktop after each use.

•Wipe up acidic or sugary spills

as soon as the cooktop has cooled, because these spills may discolor the porcelain.

Sealed Burners:

The sealed burners of your cooktop are secured to the cooktop module and are not designed to be removed. Since the burners are sealed into the module, boilovers or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop. However, the burner heads should be cleaned after each use.

Burner Grate:

The grate must be properly positioned before cooking. Improper installation of the grate may result in chipping of the cooktop.

Do not operate burners without a pan on the grate. The grate’s porcelain finish may chip without a pan to absorb the heat from the burner flame.

Although the burner grate is durable, it will gradually lose its shine and/or discolor, due to the high temperatures of the gas flame.

Burner Caps:

Lift off when cool. Wash burner caps in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water. You may scour with a plastic scouring pad to remove burned-on food particles.

Care and Cleaning Troubleshooting

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.
