Check Burner Cap Placement Before Operating
the Surface Burners
To prevent are-ups and avoid creation of harmful by-
products, DO NOT use the cooktop without all burner caps
properly installed to ensure proper ignition and gas ame size.
It is very important to be sure that all surface burner caps
and burner grates are properly installed and in the correct
locations BEFORE operating the cooktop burners.
Remember:
• Always keep surface burner caps in place whenever using
a surface burner.
• When placing the burner caps, be sure that all burner caps
are seated rmly and rest level on top of burner heads.
• For proper ow of gas and ignition of burners DO NOT
allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to
enter the gas orice port opening.
Round Style Burners
The burner cap lip (See Fig. 1) should t snug into the center
of burner head and rest level. Refer to Figs. 2 & 3 for correct
and incorrect burner cap placement. Once in place, you may
check the t by gently sliding the burner cap from side to
side (Fig. 4) to be sure it is centered and rmly seated. When
the burner cap lip makes contact inside the center of the
burner head you will be able to hear the burner cap click.
Please note that the burner cap SHOULD NOT move o the
center of the burner head when sliding from side to side.
