Turn all controls OFF before removing the burner parts and drip pans (if so equipped).

The burner grates, caps, burner heads and drip pans (if so equipped) can be lifted off, making them easy to clean.

The electrode of

 

the spark igniter is

Electrode

exposed when the

burner head is

 

removed. When one

 

burner is turned to LITE, all the burners spark. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. An electric shock may result, which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.

Burner Heads (on sealed burners only)

NOTE: Before removing the burner heads and caps, remember their size and location. Replace them in the same location after cleaning.

For proper ignition,

make sure the small hole in the section that fits over the electrode is kept open. A sewing needle or wire twist-tie works well to unclog it.

The slits in the burner heads of your range must be kept clean at all times for an even, unhampered flame.

You should clean the surface burners routinely, especially after bad spillovers, which could clog these openings.

To remove burned-on food, soak the burner heads in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water for 20-30 minutes. For more stubborn stains, use a toothbrush.

Before putting the burner head back, shake out excess water and then dry it thoroughly by setting it in a warm oven for 30 minutes.

Replace the burner

heads and caps. Make sure that the heads and caps are

replaced in the correct location. There is one small, 2 medium and one large head and cap.

NOTE: On some models the burner heads and caps are all the same size and can be used in any of the 4 needed locations.

Burner Caps (on sealed burners only)

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.

Dry them in a warm oven or with a cloth—don’t reassemble them wet. Replace the burner caps.

Make sure that caps are replaced on the correct size burner. There is one small, 2 medium and one large cap.
