CARE AND CLEANING

(continued)

Range Top Burners

The holes in the burners must be kept clean at all times for proper ignition and an even, unhampered flame.

You should clean the burners routinely, especially after bad spillovers which could clog these holes. Burners lift out for cleaning if the shipping screw was removed at installation.

NOTE: A screw holds each of the burners in place to keep them from wobbling around during shipment. Remove and discard the shipping screw.

To remove burners:

1.Grasp burner head and tilt it to the right to release the two tabs from slots in the burner support.

2.Lift the end of the burner assembly, then pull away from the front of the range to free the air shutter from the gas valve orifice.

To remove burned-on food, soak the burners in a solution of mild liquid detergent and water. Soak the burners for 20 to 30 minutes. If the food doesn’t rinse off completely, scrub them with soap and water and a brush or plastic pad. Do not use steel wool or abrasive cleansers because they will clog the burner openings and scratch the burners. If the holes become clogged, clean them with a small sewing needle or a small safety pin.

Do not attempt to clean burners in an automatic dishwasher. Loosened food soil can clog burner holes, and the strong action of the dishwasher detergent can damage the burner heads. Do not clean in self-cleaning oven.

Before putting the burners back, shake out excess water and dry them thoroughly by setting them in a warm oven for 30 minutes.

To replace burners:

1.Slip the air shutter over the gas valve orifice.

2.Lower the burner assembly and hook the tabs in the slots in the burner support.

3.Be sure both tabs are in their slots, that the burner sits level and straight, and that the flash tube forms a straight line from the igniter to the burner.

Burner Grates

burner grates

should be washed regularly and, of course,

after spillovers. Wash them in hot,

soapy water and rinse with clean water. Dry the grates with a cloth—don’t put them back on the range wet. When replacing the grates, be sure they’re positioned securely over the burners.

To get rid of burned-on food, place the grates in a

covered container or plastic bag. Add 1/4 cup ammonia and let them soak for 30 minutes. Wash, rinse well, and dry.

Although they’re durable, the grates will gradually lose their shine, regardless of the best care you can give them. This is due to their continual exposure to high temperatures.

Do not operate a burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the

grate may chip without cookw&e to absorb the heat.

Do not clean in the self-cleaning oven.
