Surface burners and cooktop The range and burner box areas are specially
designed to make cleaning easier. Because the
four burners are sealed, cleanups are easy and
convenient.
To clean the cooktop, wipe
with a damp
spongeanddry.
Product Damage Hazard
Do not remove the cooktop.
Doing so could result in product damage.
Cleaning the contoured well
areas
The contoured well is a recessed area located
around each burner. If spilfs occur in the con-
toured well section,
blot up
spill with a paper
towel.
Wipe
with a clean, damp sponge and
dry.
Be careful
when cleaning the cooktop area or
around the burner base. Cleaning utensils can
catch the ignitor and damage or break it. lf this
part is damaged or broken, the surface burner will
not light.
To protect the ignitor,
leave the burner
cap in place.
Cleaning the burners
The burner caps should be routinely removed and
cleaned.
Always clean
the burner caps after a
spillover. Keeping the burner caps clean will
prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame.
To clean, pull
the burner cap straight up from
the burner base.
Remove
the trim ring (if
equipped) and burner pan. (Burner pan and trim
ring must be replaced over burner base before
replacing burner cap. Do not operate burners
without burner pan and trim ring in place.)
Clean
burner cap, trim ring and burner pan with warm,
soapy water and a sponge. You can also clean
with a nonabrasive scrubbing pad or cleanser. Do
not clean burner cap, trim ring or burner pan in a
dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.
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 TUBE
OPENING. lf the opening or the oriiice, located
inside the opening, becomes soiled or clogged,
use
a cotton swab or a paper towel to clean the
area.
