IMPORTANT Your range is shipped with the burner heads and burner caps in the correct locations. Before using your gas range make sure to: • Follow the installation instructions before installing. • Remove all packing tape from cooktop area. • The cooktop is not removable. Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop. • Do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas orifice port -Fig 1.

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.
