CARING FOR YOUR COOKTOP

•Gas must flow freely through the small hole in the brass orifice for the burner to light properly. This area must be free of any soil and be kept protected from boilovers or spillovers. Always keep the burner caps in place whenever a surface burner is in use.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazard

Do not operate with a yellow flame.

Doing so can result in death, heart attack, or convulsions.

•Occasionally check the burner flames for proper size and shape as shown. A good flame is blue in color. If flames lift off ports, are yellow, or are noisy when turned off, you may need to clean the burners.

To clean burners:

1.Lift the burner cap straight up from the burner base.

2.Clean burner cap with warm, soapy water and a sponge. You can also clean with a mildly abrasive scrubbing pad or cleanser. Do not clean burner cap in a dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.

3.If the gas tube opening or the orifice, located inside the opening, has become soiled or clogged, use a cotton swab or a soft cloth to clean the area. Then use a small-gauge wire or needle to remove cooked-on soil.

4.If ports are clogged, clean with a straight pin. Do not enlarge or distort port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If adjustment is needed, call a qualified technician for service.

5.After cleaning the gas tube opening and ports, replace the burner cap.

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