General Cleaning

(continued)

Unlike the standard gas range, THIS COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.

Note: The burner cap assembly refers to all parts of the sealed burner unit (burner cap, burner pan (some models), trim ring (some models), locating tab, burner base and electrode).

Use caution when replacing the burner cap so the electrode is not damaged. This may cause a delayed ignition or prevent the burner from igniting.

Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized Frigidaire or Tappan Distributor or Qualified Agency.

To Clean the Cooktop

The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because the four burners are sealed, cleanups are easy when spillovers are cleaned up immediately.

To clean, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.

To Clean the Contoured Well Areas, Burner Cap Assembly, Trim Ring (some models), Burner Pan (some models) and Burner Base

The contoured well areas, burner cap assembly, trim ring (some models), burner pan (some models) and burner base should be routinely cleaned. Keeping the burner ports clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. See instructions below.

To Clean the Contoured Well Areas

The contoured well is a recessed area located around each burner unit. If a spill occurs in one of the four well areas, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.

To Remove the Burner Cap Assembly

The burner cap assembly parts differ per model. Your assembly will consist of one of the following combinations: burner cap and trim ring; burner cap and burner pan; or burner cap, trim ring and burner pan. Remove in the following order: (1st) burner cap, (2nd) trim ring and (3rd) burner pan. Do not operate the burners without the burner cap assembly in place.

To Clean the Burner Cap, Burner Pan (some models) and Trim Ring (some models)

Use a soap-filled scouring pad or a mild abrasive cleanser to clean burner caps, trim rings and burner pans.

To Clean the Burner Base and Gas Opening

The ports (or slots) around the burner base must be routinely cleaned. Use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean small slots or holes.Use care to prevent damage to the electrode. If a cleaning cloth should catch the electrode, it could break or damage the electrode. If the electrode is damaged or broken, the surface burner will not light.

For proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner—DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD, CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS OPENING. Gas must flow freely through the small hole in the brass orifice for the burners to light properly. If the orifice gas opening becomes soiled or clogged, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean. ALWAYS keep the burner cap assembly in place whenever a surface burner is in use.

To Replace the Burner Cap Assembly

Make sure the burner cap assembly is thoroughly dry before placing back on the burner.

1.Lower burner pan (some models) into place around the burner base.

2.Replace trim ring (some models).

3.Find the locating tabs on the burner cap and place in the locating slots in the burner base. Make sure each burner cap is properly aligned and level.

4.Turn the burner on to determine if it will light. If the burner does not light after cleaning, contact an authorized servicer. Do not service the sealed burner yourself.
