For proper lighting and performance keep the
burners clean. It is necessary to clean the burners
if they do not light even though the ignitor clicks,
if there has been a severe boil over, or when the
flame does not burn blue. Be certain all burner
knobs are in the off position before attempting
to clean the burners. The burners have been
designed for ease in cleaning. When the grates
and burners are cool, remove the grate. The
burner cap and the brass port ring can easily be
lifted off. Wash these parts in hot soapy water,
rinse and dry thoroughly. The burner caps are
porcelain enamel. Follow the directions that
were given for the burner grates. A bristle brush
can be used to clean out the toothed burner
ports, if necessary. After cleaning, it is important
to make sure the location pins on the bottom
side of the port ring are properly aligned with
the corresponding holes in the base. Incorrect
alignment will produce a potentially dangerous
flame and poor burner performance (see Fig. 35).
Side burner grates (BGB48 BQR model)
When lifting the grates be careful as they are heavy. Place them on a protected surface, so they won’t
scratch the surface they are laid on. The burner grates are matte enamel over cast iron. When cool,
they may be wiped clean using hot soapy water, then rinsed and wiped dry. The burner grates will not
rust as they are matte enamel on both sides for durability.
The enamel may pop off the edge of the grates due to rapid temperature change when the burners are
turned on. Do not be concerned as this does not result in the deterioration of the grates. The cast iron
soon darkens to blend with the enamel. Be careful when wiping an area where the enamel has popped
off, as the edges may be sharp.
