Care and Cleaning
Cleaning the Burners and Igniters
WARNING
Use care while cleaning the igniters. The porcelain is
fragile and can crack or break.
IMPORTANT: The igniters will not work properly if
the other burner parts or the igniters are not clean.
Dirty or wet igniters may not spark at all.
1. Disassemble the burners, and check for any
dirt or grime deposited on the individual parts,
including the igniters.
2. Clean completely around the igniter, including
over and under the edge of the metal top and
porcelain base. A firm toothbrush is ideal for this
task.
• Porcelain is fragile and can crack or break.
Do not use water to clean the igniters. If neces-
sary, use a small amount of rubbing alcohol to
help dissolve grime. The alcohol will evaporate.

Clean all the burner parts, including the
burner bases, with window cleaner or rubbing
alcohol. Use a cleaning brush with plastic bris-
tles or a firm toothbrush. When done, rinse
the parts well with clean water. Dry all the
parts thoroughly before reassembling them.
Reassemble the cooktop according to the
burner and grate assembly instructions on
page 5.
Test the burners after reassembling them.
If the flame is uneven, be sure that all the
burner parts are properly positioned, then
check for any remaining dirt or grime on the
burner parts or igniter.
• If erratic clicking still occurs, make sure
the igniter is completely dry. If the unit
still exhibits problems after drying, call
your local Dacor Authorized Service Agent.

Examine the burner bases. Remove anything
stuck in the holes with a straightened paper clip,
wire, or needle.
Be careful not to scratch or damage the ring and
head. Do not distort the shape of the burner
holes. Because the SimmerSear™ burner base is
not removable, it must be cleaned in place.
