#1 How do I clean my burners?
1. Clean completely around the igniter, including over and under the edge of the metal top and porcelain base. A firm toothbrush is ideal for this task. Use care while cleaning because the porcelain is fragile and can crack or break. Do not use water to clean the igniters. If necessary, use a small amount of rubbing alcohol to help dissolve grime.
2. Examine the burner heads. Remove anything stuck in the holes with a straightened paper clip, wire or needle. Be careful not to scratch or damage the ring and head. Do not distort the shape of the burner head holes.
3. Clean all the burner parts, including the burner bases, with window cleaner or rubbing alcohol. Use a cleaning brush with plastic bristles or a firm tooth brush. When done, rinse the parts well with clean water. Dry all the parts thoroughly before re-assembling them.
4. Reassemble the cooktop and test the burners after reassembling them. If the flame is uneven, be sure that all the burner parts are properly positioned, then check for any remaining dirt or grime on the burner parts or igniter. If erratic clicking is still present, make sure the igniter is completely dry.
