Lift off when cool.Wash burner caps in hot,
soapy water and rinsewith clean water. You
may scour with a plastic scouring pad to
remove burned-on food particles.Toget rid of
burned on food, place the caps in a covered
container. Add 1/4 cup ammonia and let soak

Makesure that no water gets into the burner
bases.Allowthem 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 slits 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 spillon 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. Liftoff 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
Beforeputting the burner caps,heads(onsome
models)and ovalhead/cap assemblyback,shake
out excesswater and then drythem thoroughly
bysettingin a warm oven for 30 minutes.
