Surface Burners
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.
NOTE: Each round burner cap is marked with a letter indicating
the burner size.
Alignment: Be sure to align the gas tube opening in the burner
base with the orifice holder on the cooktop and the igniter
electrode with the notch in the burner base.
NOTE: Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating
the burner size.
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
opening by always using a burner cap.
Burner Ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is
blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil, and do not
allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter
the burner ports.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the cooktop is cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust
removers. Do not wash in the dishwasher.
1. Remove the burner cap and the burner base and clean
according to the “General Cleaning” section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
