General Cleaning
(continued)
For Models with Sealed Burners
(some models) (continued)
To Clean the Burner Cap
Remove burner cap. Use soap-filled pad or mild abrasive cleanser to clean burner
caps. If necessary, cover stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for
30 minutes. Rub gently with a mixture of clean water and vinegar. Wipe dry. Remove
all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.
To Clean the Removable Burner Base and Gas Opening (some models)
The ports (or slots) around the burner base must be routinely cleaned. Use a small-
gauge wire or needle to clean small slots or holes.
Note: If the electrode is damaged or broken, the surface burner will not light
because it will not spark. Manual lighting with a match is still possible.
For proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner - DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD,
CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS OPENING
TUBE. Gas must flow freely through the small hole in the brass orifice for the burners
to light properly. If the gas opening orifice becomes soiled or clogged, use a small-
gauge or needle to clean. ALWAYS keep the burner cap in place whenever a surface
burner is in use.
To Replace the Burner Base and the Burner Cap
Make sure the pieces are thoroughly dry before placing back.
1. Replace burner base and burner cap at there place. Make sure each burner cap
and burner base are properly aligned and leveled.
2. Replace the burner grate.
3. Turn the burner on to determine if it light. If the burner does not light after
cleaning, contact an authorized servicer. Do not service the sealed burner
yourself.
