Sealed Burners; Burner Cap And Burner Base Placement - Bosch NGM5456UC Mode D'emploi

Sealed burners

Your new cooktop has sealed gas burners. There are no
burner parts under the cooktop to clean, disassemble or
adjust. Your cooktop has three different burner sizes:
small, medium, and large.

Burner Cap and Burner Base Placement

WARNING
To prevent flare-ups, do not use the cooktop without
all burner caps and all burner grates properly
positioned.
WARNING
To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or
grates while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow the
burners to cool.
The burner caps must be properly placed for the cooktop
to function properly. If the burner cap is not properly
placed, one or more of the following problems may
occur:
Burner flames are too high.
Flames shoot out of burners.
Stainless steel discolors.
Burners do not ignite.
Burner flames light unevenly.
Burner emits gas odor.
Burner Cap and Burner Base Placement
After electrical connection is complete, place each
burner base on the corresponding location on the
cooktop. One of the three bars on the burner base
should line up with the notch and prevent the base
from rotating. The small hole or cutout near the edge
should also line up with the igniter. Pay special
attention to avoid damaging the igniter during
installation of the base. See Illustration below.
Once each base is located and resting evenly, place
each burner cap on its correct burner base. See
Illustration.

Place burner cap gently on top of base so that the
prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of
the burner cap.
If the maintop is removed by a certified installer (for
example to check electrical or piping connection) the
panhead screws that were removed must be
re-installed to ensure proper functionality of burners.

Placing Burner Caps and Bases
Checking Burner Cap Placement
Check to make sure that there is no gap between the
burner cap and burner base. See illustration below for
correct and incorrect placements of the burner cap.
You may gently try to move the burner cap from side
to side to check if it is properly placed. If properly
placed, the cap will click from side to side as the
prongs hit the groove ridge.
