Cleaning the G5 Burner Head Ignition Port
Each G5 burner head has a small ignition port as shown in the
illustration below (
Figure 28).
Should you experience ignition problems it may be this port is
partially blocked. Use a small wire gauge needle, toothpick, or
the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port.

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. The surface burner
