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.
