remove or lift the cooktop.

any surface burners are turned ON and the burner caps
are not seated correctly.
CleaningtheCooktop,BurnerHeads,Caps
& Grates
The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because
the gas Burners are sealed, cleanups are easy when
spillovers are cleaned up immediately.
The cooktop, Burner Heads and Caps should be routinely
cleaned. Keeping the Burner Head Ports clean will
prevent improper ignition and an uneven ame. Refer to
the following instructions:

Your appliance is shipped with the burner heads and
burner caps in the correct locations. Before using your
gas appliance be sure to:
● Follow installation instructions before operating.
● Remove all packing tape from cooktop area.
ToCleantheBurnerGrates-Besureburnersand
grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot
holder, cleaning cloths or other material on them.
The burner grates are dishwasher safe and may be
cleaned in the dishwasher. Remove any excessive soils
before placing in the dishwasher.
Cleaning the burner caps- Should you ever need to
remove the burner caps for cleaning, lift the burner cap off
the burner head. Clean heavy soils with an absorbent cloth.
Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and immediately thoroughly
dry including the bottom and inside of the cap. Do not use
harsh abrasive cleaners. They can scratch the porcelain on
the cap. Do not clean burner caps in dishwasher.
Cleaningtheburnerheads- Lift the burner cap from
the burner head. The surface burner heads are secured
to the cooktop and must be cleaned in place (except for
the bridge burner, which is removable. See bridge burner
assembly section for proper installation).
For proper gas ow it may be necessary to clean the
burner heads and slots. To clean, rst 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 afterwards wipe using a damp
cloth. For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-
gauge wire or needle to clean.
Should you experience ignition problems it may be that
an ignition port hole is partially blocked with soil (see g
1). With the burner head in place, use a small wire gauge
needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port
or ports.
ToCleantheCooktopandcontouredareasofthe
cooktop- If a spill occurs on the porcelain cooktop,
blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean,
damp cloth and wipe dry. Do not use harsh abrasive
cleaners on the cooktop. They can scratch the porcelain.
Completely rinse any mild cleaners used from the surface
or the porcelain cooktop may become damaged during
future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the
cooktop.
