Operation Tips:
1. A yellow flame is an indication of incorrect fuel/air ratio. Lowered
BTU output and carbon build up can occur.
2. Flame appearance may change and BTU output will lower when
operating the cooktop at an altitude above 5,000 feet. Allow extra
cooking time.
3. Do not allow the tips of the flame to extend beyond pan or pot edge.
When this occurs heat is wasted and possibility of injury increases.
4. Remove cooktop cover to help keep the underside of the cooktop
clean. Place strips of aluminum foil on the cooktop floor pan and
under burners. Do not restrict air flow of mixture tubes.
5. Pre-heat the oven for 10 minutes prior to use.
The burner grate is attached to the cooktop cover by two spring clips located on
the underside of the cooktop cover. The burner grate can be separated from the
cooktop cover for cleaning purposes. Place a towel on the countertop next to the
cooktop. Lift the cooktop cover up by pushing cover towards rear of cooktop. Lift
cover at the front edge. Place the cooktop cover upside down on the towel.
Squeeze both of the grate spring clips to remove the grate from cooktop
cover.
• Clean all surfaces as soon as possible after boil overs or spillovers.
• Use warm soapy water to clean the burner grates, cooktops, painted
surfaces, porcelain surfaces, stainless steel surfaces and plastic items
on the range or cooktop. Grit or acid-type cleaners may ruin the surface.
• Use only non-abrasive plastic scrubbing pads.
• Do not allow foods containing acids (such as lemon or tomato juice,
or vinegar) to remain on porcelain or painted surfaces. Acids may
remove the glossy finish. Wipe up egg spills when cooktop is cool.
• Allow porcelain surfaces to cool before cleaning. Burns from the heated
surface may occur or the cooktop porcelain can crack.
Regular cleaning with a soft cloth and a warm detergent solution is generally
enough to keep the cooktop clean. Wash, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
Thoroughly clean the cooktop when it is cool. Use a dry cloth or paper towel
while the surface is warm to the touch to clean splatters or spills. Cleaning will be
more difficult if spills bake on to the surface. Glass cleaner sprayed on a paper
towel should be used for the cooktop surface. Do not spray glass cleaner directly
on the surface. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or steel wool. Harsh cleansers like
bleach, ammonia and oven cleaner should NEVER be used. The surface burner
grate and caps should be cleaned using the same guidelines as the cooktop surface.
