Cooktop Cleaning and Maintenance

CAUTION:
To avoid possible burns use care when
cleaning the cooktop. DO NOT attempt to
clean the cooktop whenever the cooktop or
burner heads are still hot.
To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt any
of the cleaning instructions provided below
before turning OFF all of the surface burners.
The cooktop and surface burners are designed tomake
cleaning easier. Since cooktop surface burners are sealed,
cleanups are easy when spillovers are cleaned up
immediately. Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a
clean, damp cloth and wipe dry to avoid scratches. The
contoured well areas and burner drip pans (some models
should be frequently cleaned also.
Keeping the burner head ports and slots clean will prevent
improper ignition and uneven flame. Refer to the following
sections for further instructions.
Recommendations
To clean the burner head ignition ports
Each burner head has a small ignition port located as
illustrated. Should you experience ignition problems it may
be that this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the
burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the
end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port.
To clean the surface burner heads
For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner
head and slots. To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to
soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the
burner slots using a small non-abrasive brush like a
toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth. For
stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire
or needle to clean.
To clean the recessed and contoured well areas of the
cooktop
If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured areas,
blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean,
damp cloth and wipe dry.
To clean the surface burner grates, caps & burner drip
pans (some models)
Use a soap-filled scouring pad or a mild abrasive cleanser
to clean the surface burner caps and surface burner drip
pans (if equipped).

The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and
must be cleaned in place on the cooktop.
For proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner — DO
NOT allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas orifice holder opening.
Always keep the surface burner cap and surface burner
head in place whenever a surface burner is in use.
