sing and Caring for Your Cooktop
Your cooktop is designed for ease of care.
You can do most cleaning with items found
around the home. Cleaning your cooktop
whenever spills or soiling occur will help to
keep it looking and operating like new.
NOTES:
• Before cleaning make sure all controls are
off and the cooktop is cool.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion
and ventilation air around the burner grates
edges.
Surface burners
• The burner caps should be routinely
removed and cleaned. Always clean burner
caps after a spillover. Keeping the burner
caps clean prevents poor ignition and an
uneven flame.
• 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,
• Occasionally check the burner flames for
proper size and shape as shown later in
this section. A good flame is blue in color. If
flames are not burning at all ports, you may
need to clean the burner ports.

If the gas tube opening or the orifice,
located inside the opening, has become
soiled or clogged, use a damp cloth to
clean the area.
4. If ports are clogged, clean them with a
straight pin. Do not enlarge or distort
the port. Do not use a wooden tooth-
pick. if the burner needs to be adjusted,
call a qualified technician for service.
5. After cleaning the gas tube opening and
ports, replace the burner cap. To re-
place burner cap, make sure cap is
properly aligned and leveled.
6. Check the burner after cleaning for proper
lighting. If the burner does not light after
you have cleaned it, recheck cap
alignment or contact a designated service
technician. Do not service the sealed
burner yourself.
