Using and Caring for Your Cooktop

Caring for your cooktop

Your cooktop is designed for ease of care. You can do most cleaning with items found around the home. Cleaning your cooktop whenever spills or soiling occur will help to keep it looking and operating like new.

NOTES:

Before cleaning make sure all controls are off and the cooktop is cool.

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

Cleaning the surface burners

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 color not yellow.

If the flames are not burning at all ports, you may need to clean the burner ports.
