Burner Head
If ports on burner head are clogged, clean with a straight pin.
DO NOT enlarge or distort the ports. DO NOT use a toothpick to
clean the ports. When replacing burner head, carefully align the 2 tabs
underneath the burner head with the outside edge of burner base.
Make sure the tabs are not aligned with the igniter and the burner cap
is level.
Note: For stubborn stains, use a non abrasive cleanser such as Bon
Ami™ and a soft brush or soft Scotch Brite™ pad.
Cleaning Tip: For difficult to clean burner caps and heads, place parts
in a zip seal bag with ammonia.
Burner Base
The base should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of
each cooling period. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleanser,
or powders. To remove encrusted materials, soak the area with a hot
towel to loosen the material, then use a wooden nylon spatula.
DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape
the aluminum base.
• Wipe up any spills which remain on the sealed top surface.
• Replace burner cap, burner head, and grates after drying thoroughly.
Control Panel
DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They
could remove the graphics from the control panel. Use hot, soapy
water and a soft clean cloth.
Oven Surfaces
Several different finishes have been used in your oven.

CLEANSERS, OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.

Product Care
Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when
maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is no
exception. Your range must be kept clean and maintained properly.
Before cleaning, make sure all controls are in the “OFF” position.
Disconnect power if you are going to clean thoroughly with water.
Surface Burners
* Note: When replacing burner head, arrow must be pointing towards
back of range.
Wipe up spill-overs as soon as possible after they occur and before
they get a chance to burn in and cook solid. In the event of a
spill-over, follow these steps:
• Allow the burner and grate to cool to a safe temperature level.
• Lift off the burner grate. Wash in warm soapy water.
• Remove the burner cap and burner head and clean.
Burner Caps
The surface burner caps should be routinely removed and cleaned.
ALWAYS clean the burner caps after a spill-over. Keeping the burner
caps clean will prevent improper ignition and uneven flames. To clean,
pull burner cap straight up from the burner base. Wipe off surface
burner caps with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after each use.
Use a non-abrasive cleanser such as Bon Ami™ and a soft brush or soft
Scotch Brite™ pad for cooked-on foods. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
For best cleaning and to avoid possible rusting, DO NOT clean in
dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.
