Cleaning Burner Heads/Caps
For even and unhampered flame, the slits in the
burner heads must be kept clean at all times.The
burner heads and caps (and the oval burner head
and cap assembly) can be lifted off. Do not attempt to
remove the oval burner cap.
• Wash the burner caps in hot soapy water and rinse
with clean water. Run water through the oval burner
from the bottom stem to flush out debris.
• Use care when cleaning the cooktop. The pointed
metal ends on the electrodes could cause injury.
Hitting an electrode with a hard object may damage
it.
• To remove burnt-on food, soak the burner heads
in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water
for 20–30 minutes. For stubborn stains, use a
toothbrush or wire brush.
• The burners will not operate properly if the burner
ports or electrodes are clogged or dirty.
• Burner caps and heads should be cleaned routinely,
especially after excessive spillover.
• Burners will not light if the cap is removed.
CAUTIOn
• Do not hit the electrodes with anything hard.
Doing so could damage them.
• Do not use steel wool or scouring powders to
clean the burners.
After Cleaning the Burner Heads/
Caps
Shake out any excess water and then let the parts
dry thoroughly. Placing the oval burner upside down
will allow the water to drain out more easily. Replace
the burner heads and caps over the electrodes on
the cooktop in the correct locations according to
their size. Make sure the hole in the burner head is
positioned over the electrode.
