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	Electrode
the spark igniter is

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.

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