CLEANING THE BURNERS:
For proper lighting and performance, keep the
burners clean and dry. It is necessary to clean
the burners if they do not light although the
igniter clicks,whenever there has been a severe
boil over or when the flame doesn’t burn blue.
Be certain all burner knobs are in the
OFF
position before attempting to clean the
burners. The burners have been designed for
ease of cleaning. When the grates and burners
are cool, remove the grate.The Burner Cap and
the Brass Port Ring can easily be lifted off.Wash
these parts in hot soapy water, rinse and dry
thoroughly. The Burner Caps are porcelain
enamel, follow the directions on page 8 that
were given to clean the burner grates. A bristle
brush can be used to clean out the toothed
burner ports, if necessary. Disassembly of the
Simmer Ring is not recommended, however, it may become necessary to do so if the ports remain
clogged after normal cleaning.If it is necessary to disassemble the Simmer Ring from the Base,remove
the Hex Nut at the top of the Simmer Ring. Clean the Simmer Ring with hot soapy water using a soft
wire or plastic bristle brush then dry thoroughly. Re-assemble the parts using the Hex Nut.
After cleaning, it is important to make sure the Locating Pin on the bottom side of the Simmer Ring is
properly aligned with the corresponding hole in the Base and that the Locating Pin (see above) in the
bottom side of the Brass Port Ring is properly aligned with the Locating Notch on the top side of the
Simmer Ring. Incorrect alignment will produce a potentially dangerous flame and poor burner
performance. See the illustration above.
CLEANING THE IGNITERS:
Be certain all burner knobs are in the OFF position before attempting to clean the igniters. Gently
wipe with an alcohol dampened cotton swab and be careful not to damage the igniter.
