On models with standard twin burners, the
cooktop
lifts up for easy access.
Turn all controls OFF before removing burner
parts and drip pans (if so equipped).
The burner grates and drip pans (if so equipped)
can be lifted off, making them easy to clean.
The holes in
the
surface burners of your range must
be kept clean at all times for proper ignition and an
even, unhampered flame.
You
should
clean the surface burners routinely,
especially after bad
spillovers,
which could clog
these holes. Wipe off surface burners. If heavy
spillover
occurs, remove the surface burners from
the range. Burners lift out for cleaning. Lift up the
cooktop
and then lift out the surface burners.
To remove burned-on food, soak the surface burner
in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water.
Soak the surface burner for 20 to 30 minutes. For
more stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft
Scrub@
brand or Bon
Ami@
brand. Rinse well to remove any
traces of the cleanser that might clog the surface
burner openings. Do not use steel wool because it
will clog the surface burner openings and scratch the
surface burners. If the holes become clogged, clean
them with a sewing needle or twist tie.
Before putting the surface burner back, shake out
excess water and then dry it thoroughly by setting it in
a warm oven for 30 minutes. Then place it back in the
range, making sure it is properly seated and level.
Check the flame pattern of each burner. If the flames
are
‘~umpy”
(not steady), clean the holes again with a
sewing needle or twist-tie.
