Holes

Use a sewing needle, twist-tie and/or toothbrush to unclog the small holes and slits in the burner heads and burner rings.

Turn all controls OFF before removing the burner parts.

The burner grates, burner caps and burner ring sub-assemblies can be lifted off, making them easy to clean.

CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE BURNER WITHOUT ALL BURNER PARTS IN PLACE.

MISE EN CAUSE : N’UTILISEZ PAS DE BRÛLEUR QUI N’A PAS TOUTES SES PIÈCES EN PLACE.

For proper ignition, make sure the small holes in the burner rings are kept open. A sewing needle or wire twist-tie works well to unclog them.

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

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

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

Clean the burner bases in place on the cooktop.

To remove the burner parts:

1Lift off the burner cap and burner head.

Electrode	The electrode of the
	spark ignitor is behind
	each burner. When one
	burner is turned to
	“ON” to light, 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.
