Whirlpool TGR51WO Range User Manual


 
Surface burners
1. Lift up
the cook-top, following the instruc-
tions on page 17.
2. Before cleaning, remove
screws that
hold each of the burners in place. The
screws prevent the burners from moving
during shipment. Remove the shipping
screws with a Phillips screwdriver,
lift
the
burner up,
tilt it
to one side at the end
closest to the ignitor and
move
it toward
the back of the range. This separates the
burner from the
gas
valve at the front of
the range, so it can be easily removed.
3.
Wipe
off surface burners with warm,
soapy water and a sponge after each
use. To
remove cooked-on food, soak
the burners in a vinegar and water
solution for 20-30 minutes.
Scrub
with a
plastic scrubbing pad.
4. If ports are clogged, clean with a
straight pin. DO NOT enlarge or distort
the ports. DO NOT use a toothpick to
clean the ports.
5. Before putting the burners back, dry
them thoroughly by setting them in a
warm oven for 30 minutes.
6. Replace
burners, making sure they are
properly seated and level.
Replace
screws.
7. Occasionally check
the burner flames
for proper size and shape as shown. A
good flame is blue in color. If flames lift
off ports, are yellow, or are noisy when
turned off, you may need to clean the
burners (see above), or
call
a qualified
technician for adjustment.
