NOTE: A screw holds each burner in place to keep
them from wobbling around during shipment.
Remove and discard the shipping screws. Be careful
not to remove the screws from the igniter bracket.

To remove the burners:

1. Grasp the burner head and tilt it to

right to

release the two tabs from slots in the burner support.

2. Lift the end of the burner assembly, then pull away

from the front of the range to free the air shutter
from the gas

orifice.

To remove burned-on food, soak the burners in a
solution of mild liquid detergent and water. Soak the
burners

to minutes. If the food doesn’t rinse

off completely, scrub them with soap and water and a
brush or plastic pad.

not use steel wool or abrasive

cleansers because they will clog the burner openings
and scratch the burners. If the holes become clogged,
clean them with small sewing needle or small
safety pin.

Do not attempt to clean burners in an automatic
dishwasher. Loosened
food soil can clog burner
holes, and the strong action of the dishwasher
detergent can damage the burner heads.

Before putting the burners back, shake out excess
water and dry them thoroughly by setting them in a
warm
oven for

minutes.
