GE XL User Manual

Burner Heads (on sealed burners only)
The holes in the burners of your range, and the spark
electrodes, must be kept clean at all times for proper
ignition and an even, unhampered flame.
You should clean the burner heads routinely,
especially after bad
spillovers, which could clog
these holes. Wipe off the burner heads. If heavy
spillover occurs, remove the burner heads from
the range.
Remove the burner grate and burner cap. Then lift the
burner head straight up.
To get rid of burned-on food, soak the burner head
upside-down in a solution of mild liquid detergent and
hot water. Soak the burner head for 20 to 30 minutes.
If the food doesn’t rinse off completely, scrub it with
soap and water and a soft brush or plastic scouring pad.
For more stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft
ScrubQ brand or Bon AmiQ brand. Rinse well to
remove any traces of the cleanser that might clog the
burner openings. Do not use steel wool because it will
clog the burner openings and scratch the burners. If
the holes become clogged, clean them with a sewing
needle or twist tie.
Before putting the burner head back, shake out
excess water and dry it thoroughly by setting it in a
warm oven for 30 minutes. Then place it back in the
range, making sure the pin in the burner base goes in
the hole in the burner head, and that the burner heads
are properly seated and
level.
I
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE BURNER WITHOUT ALL BURNER PARTS AND DRIP PANS
(IF SO EQUIPPED) IN PLACE.
