SEALED SURFACE BURNERS AND COOKTOP

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 improper 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.

Gas must flow freely through the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. You must 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.

Be careful not to allow moisture to collect in the control areas. Moisture can cause the ignitor switches to fail.

Occasionally check the burner flames for proper size and shape as shown. A good flame

is blue in color. If the

clean the burners.
