Burners*
AccuSimmer
®
burners are located in the right front position and
left rear position on 36" (91.4 cm) models or in the right front
position on 30" (76.2 cm) models. The AccuSimmer
®
burners
offer a lower Btu/h flame for delicate sauces or melting
chocolate.
*Btu/h rating will vary when using LP gas.
Power Failure
The ignition feature will not operate during a power failure.
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise. After burner lights, turn knob to setting.
Surface Burners
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a
surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition
and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover
and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the
“General Cleaning” section.
Alignment: Be sure to align the notch in the burner cap with the
pin in the burner base and to align the orifice holder in the burner
base with the igniter electrode.
Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil
and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the
gas tube opening by always using a burner cap.
Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown above. A good flame is blue in color, not
yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food,
cleaning agents or any other material to enter the burner ports.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the cooktop is cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust
removers.
1. Remove the burner cap and the burner base and clean
according to “General Cleaning” section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do
not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden
toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a
trained repair specialist.
4. Replace the burner base.
5. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins on
the cap are properly aligned with the burner base.
6. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap
alignment. If the burner still does not light, turn off the burner.
Do not service the burner yourself. Contact a trained repair
specialist.
