SEALED SURFACE BURNERS AND COOKTOP

Cleaningthe surfaceburners

You should routinely remove and clean the burner cap. Always clean the burner cap after a spill-over. Keeping the burner cap clean prevents poor ignition and an uneven flame.

For the proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner, do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other material to enter the gas tube opening or burner ports.

Gas must flow freely through the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of any soil and protect it from boilovers

or spillovers. Always keep the burner cap in place whenever a surface burner is in use.

Let the cooktop cool before cleaning.

Do not use oven cleaners, bleach, or rust removers.

Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.

Occasionally check the burner flames for proper size and shape as shown. A good flame is blue in

1-1_

color not yellow. If the

 

flames are not burning

 

at all ports, you may

 

need to clean the

 

burner ports.
