Rangetop Cleaning Tips

• Use the mildest cleaning procedure that will do the job
efficiently and effectively. Some cleaners of the same
type are harsher than others. Try on a small
inconspicuous area first.
• The porcelain enamel finish is acid resistant, but not
acid proof. Acidic foods, such as citrus juices,
tomatoes, rhubarb, vinegar, alcohol or milk, should be
wiped up and not allowed to bake onto the porcelain
during the next use.
• Always rub metal finishes in the direction of the polish
lines for maximum effectiveness and to avoid marring
the surface.

CAUSE
• Ceramic igniter is wet or dirty.
®
• STAR burner ports are clogged.
• Improper fit of STAR burner cap
onto STAR burner base.
• Rangetop is not properly grounded.
• Electrical power supply is incorrectly
polarized.
If the cooktop is being used when the power failure occurs
turn all of the burner control knobs to the OFF position. The
standard burners can be lit by holding a match at the ports
and turning the control knob to the HI position. Wait until
the flame is burning all the way around the burner cap
before adjusting the flame to the desired height.
®
The two ExtraLow burners on the left side cannot be used
during a power failure. Be sure to turn them OFF if a power
failure occurs because they will not turn back on until the
control knobs are turned OFF and then turned back on
again. See "WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS" on
page 1.
If you have low gas pressure, contact your gas company.

• Clean ports on STAR burner cap with a
wire, a needle or straightened paper clip.
