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 heads and bases, place parts
in a zip seal bag with ammonia.
Burner Flange
After the burner flange has cooled, it
should be wiped with hot soapy water but
do not allow water to run or drip in the
large center opening. 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 or nylon
spatula.
DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any
other metal tool to scrape the burner flange.
• Wipe up any spills which remain on the sealed top surface.
• Replace burner base, burner head, and grates after drying
thoroughly.

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
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 head and burner
base and clean.
Burner Heads
The surface burner heads should be routinely removed and cleaned.
ALWAYS clean the burner heads after a spill-over. Keeping the burner
heads clean will prevent improper ignition and uneven flames. To clean,
pull burner head straight up from the burner base. Wipe off 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. 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. Dry thoroughly after cleaning. For
best cleaning and to avoid possible rusting,
DO NOT clean in dishwasher or self-
cleaning oven. When replacing the burner
head, carefully align the locator key in the
outer edge below the burner ports with the
small notch in the top front edge of the
burner base. This will align the burner port
with the ignitor.
Burner Base
To clean, pull burner base straight up from the burner flange. Wipe off 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. When replacing burner base, carefully align the three ribs
underneath the burner base with the three grooves in the burner flange.
Make sure the burner base is level by aligning the rib that has a pin with
the groove that has a hole.
