44 General Care & Cleaning cLEANING cooktop, BURNER GRATES, BURNER CAPS and BURNER HEADS 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. When placing the burner caps, see Important note below. IMPORTANT When placing the burner caps on the cooktop, be sure the burner caps are seated firmly on top of burner heads. Improper flame size and uneven heating may result when any surface burners are turned ON and the burner caps are not seated correctly. 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. For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner heads and slots. To clean, first 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 figs 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. Slots Ignition port Orifice port Figure 1 - Cooktop burner head
