• Cleaning after Installation: Use a stainless steel cleaning product or wipe to eliminate
the glue residues of the protection film after removal.
• Cleaning the Dropin: Periodically clean the burner heads, cast iron pan supports, and
burner caps using warm water. Remove burner food and fat residues with a rubber
spatula.
• Cleaning Stainless Steel: For the best results, use a stainless steel cleaner product with a
soft sponge or cloth with a warm soap and water solution. Never use abrasive powders
or liquids.
• Cleaning the Burner Caps: Lift the burner caps from the burner heads and wash them
in a warm soap and water solution. Dry thoroughly before using them again. Before
reinstalling them on the burner head, check that the gas flow holes are not clogged with
food residues or cleaning products.
• Cleaning Porcelain: Porcelain parts should be cleaned frequently with a warm soap
and water solution applied with a soft sponge or wipe. Never use abrasive powders
or liquids. Do not leave acid or alkaline substances on the porcelain parts (such as
vinegar, lemon juice, salt, tomato sauce, etc). Use a rubber spatula to remove food and
fat residues.

Troubleshooting
TROUBLESHOOTING
DROPIN PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE AND/OR REMEDY
Dropin does not function Dropin is not connected to electrical power. Check
power circuit breaker, wiring, and fuses. If all electrical
components are properly installed, call 1-614-777-
5004 for help.
Burner does not ignite Gas supply valve is in the “OFF” position or gas supply
is interrupted.
Igniter barely sparking, no
flame ignition
Burner ports are clogged or the unit is not set to the
appropriate gas type. Call 1-614-777-5004 for help.
Burner ignites but flame is
large, distorted, or yellow
The air quality of the room may be affecting the flame
color. Ensure that there are no candles, cleaning
products, air purifiers, etc. in the room.
Low flames and longer
cooking times
The liquid propane gas conversion procedure may not
have been performed properly. Check that all orifices
are correctly placed. If not, contact your installer.
Brass burners change color (if
you purchased brass burners
for your dropin)
Brass burners naturally oxidize over time and form a
patina that is a beautiful deep brass hue. This process
ensures our brass burners are corrosion resistant and is
not cause for a return.
Dropin burner’s low/simmer
flame setting is too high
The liquid propane gas conversion procedure may not
have been performed properly, as all burners should
have been adjusted during installation with the flame
adjustment tool that comes with each dropin. See page
17 for how to adjust the burner flame’s height.
