Burner Caps, Bases and Heads
Before removing the burner cops and heads (on
some models), remember their size and location.
Replace them in the same location after cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use steel wool or scouring
powders to clean the burner parts.
Burner caps
Lift off when cool. Wash burner caps in hot,
soapy water and rinse with clean water. You
may scour with a plastic scouring pad to
remove burned-on food particles. To get rid of
burned on food, place the caps in a covered
container. Add 1/4 cup ammonia and let soak
for several hours or over night. Wash, rinse well
and dry.
Tri-ring burner (on some models)
The outer cap on the trI-rIng burner Is not
removable. Only the center round cap may be
removed for cleaning.
To clean the burner bases, use soapy water and a
plastic scouring pad. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Make sure that no water gets into the burner
bases. Allow them to dry fully before using.
Burner Heads (on some models) and Oval
(Center) Burner Head/Cap Assembly
The burner heads and the oval burner head/cap
assembly are removable. Simply lift them off the
range for cleaning.
For proper ignition, make sure the small hole in
the section that fits over the electrode is kept
open. A sewing needle or wire twist-tie works
well to unclog it.
The silts In the burner heads must be kept clean
at all times for an even, unhampered flame.
Clogged or dirty burner ports or electrodes will
not allow the burner to operate properly.
Any spill on or around an electrode must
be carefully cleaned. Take care to not hit an
electrode with anything hard or it could be
damaged.
Clean the burner heads routinely, especially
after bad spillovers, which could clog the
openings. Lift off when cool.
To remove burned-on food, soak the burner
heads in a solution of mild liquid detergent
and hot water for 20-30 minutes. For more
stubborn stains, use a toothbrush.
After cleaning
Before putting the burner caps, heads (on some
models) and oval head/cap assembly back, shake
out excess water and then dry them thoroughly
by setting in a warm oven for 30 minutes.
Replacement Burner Heads (on some models)
Replace burner heads over the electrodes on
the cooktop, in the correct locations according
to their size. There is one small, one medium,
one large and one extra-large burner head.
Make sure the slot or hole (depending on model) in
the burner head is positioned over the electrode.
