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.

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

BURNER WITHOUT ALL BURNER PARTS
IN 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.
2Remove the burner ring locking nut using
a 11⁄16″socket wrench, crescent wrench or
channel-lock pliers.
3Lift off the burner ring. Do not remove the
burner bases.
Before putting the burner parts back, shake out
excess water and then dry them thoroughly by
setting them in a warm oven for 30 minutes.
To replace the burner parts:
Make sure all parts for the burner are
firmly seated.
1Align the locator pins on the burner ring
into the labeled hole in the burner base.

2Replace the burner ring locking nut and
hand-tighten. Using the wrench or pliers,
turn the nut 1/4 turn to secure it in place.
3Align the locator pin in the burner head into
the hole in the burner ring. Seat in place.
