Care and Cleaning 51
CLEANING SURFACE BURNER HEADS
For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner
head and slots. To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to soak
up any spills. Remove any food from between the burner slots
using a small nonabrasive brush like a toothbrush and after-
wards wipe up using a damp cloth. For stubborn soils located in
the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean.
Any spill on or around the electrode must be carefully cleaned.
Take care not to hit the electrode with any thing hard or it could
be damaged.
IMPORTANT!
Small food particulars on or around the electrode could stop the
burner from lighting.
To clean the burner head ignition ports
Each burner head has a small ignition port located as shown.
Should you experience ignition problems it may be that this port
hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner head in place,
use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear
the ignition port (Figure 52; round style shown; oval burner on
some models not shown).
IMPORTANT!
• The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and
must be cleaned in place on the cooktop.
• Always keep the surface burner caps in place whenever a
surface burner is in use.
• When replacing the burner caps, be sure the burner caps
are seated firmly on top of the burner heads. Improper
flame size and uneven heating may result when any
surface burners are turned on and the burner caps are not
seated correctly.
• For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners do not allow
spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter
the gas orifice port opening.
Double ring burner cap
The glass in the double ring is designed to fit loosely. Clean with
normal non abrasive glass type cleaner and thoroughly dry
before replacing.
Re-installing the G5 burner:
Place the burner head over the gas orifice (Figure 54). Be
careful not to damage the electrode while placing the burner
head over the orifice. Make sure electrode fits correctly into slot
in burner head.
IMPORTANT! For proper ignition, the burner ring alignment tab
must align with burner base alignment tab slot.
When the burner ring is properly seated, it will click into place.
When the burner cap is properly set in place, it should not move
out of the recessed area of the burner head.
