IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.

Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the “General Cleaning” section.

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the gas tube by always using a burner cap.

To Clean:

1.Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean according to “General Cleaning” section.

2.Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.

3.Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a trained repair specialist.

5.Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

Home Canning

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

■Center the canner on the grate above the burner.

■Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.

■For more information, contact your local agricultural department. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.
