MAINTENANCE

LIS

Grates and burner heads/caps can be removed for

care and cleaning.

CAUTION

• Make sure burner heads and caps are reinstalled

properly. They will be stable and rest flat when

correctly installed.

• When burner cap is properly set.

• When burner cap is not properly set.

Cleaning Burner Heads/Caps

For even and unhampered flame, the slits in the

burner heads must be kept clean at all times.The

burner heads and caps (and the oval burner head

and cap assembly) can be lifted off. Do not attempt

to remove the oval burner cap.

CAUTION

• Do not hit the electrodes with anything hard.

Doing so could damage them.

• Do not use steel wool or scouring powders to

clean the burners.

• Wash the burner caps in hot soapy water and

rinse with clean water. Run water through the

oval burner from the bottom stem to flush out

debris.

• Use care when cleaning the cooktop. The

pointed metal ends on the electrodes could

cause injury. Hitting an electrode with a hard

object may damage it.

• To remove burnt-on food, soak the burner heads

in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot

water for 20–30 minutes. For stubborn stains,

use a toothbrush or wire brush.

• The burners will not operate properly if the

burner ports or electrodes are clogged or dirty.

• Burner caps and heads should be cleaned

routinely, especially after excessive spillover.

• Burners will not light if the cap is removed.

After Cleaning the Burner Heads/Caps

Shake out any excess water and then let them dry

thoroughly. Placing the oval burner upside down

will allow the water to drain out more easily.

Replace the burner heads and caps over the

electrodes on the cooktop in the correct locations

according to their size. Make sure the hole in the

burner head is positioned over the electrode.

Burner Grates

The range consists of three separate professional-

style grates. For maximum stability, these grates

should only be used when in their proper position.

The center grate can be interchanged from front

to back.

CAUTION

• Do not operate a burner for an extended period

of time without cookware on the grate. The

finish on the grate may chip without cookware to

absorb the heat.
