Disconnect the gas line inside the cabinet.
Remove three screws from the front of the combustion chamber
bottom panel and drop the assembly down. Clean inside the
combustion chamber and the burner with a shop type vacuum
cleaner.
To remove burners remove screw from the end of the burner and
slide the burner out of its bracket (it may be necessary to slightly
spring the bracket).
