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 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.

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and 
the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach 
or rust removers.

1. Remove the surface grates.

2. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean 

according to “General Cleaning” section.

3. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.

4. 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.

5. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are 

properly aligned with the burner cap.

6. Replace the surface grates.

7. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap 

alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the 
burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to griddle, the griddle is to be 
used on the side burners only and with low flame.

Wash the griddle with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry 
thoroughly. To avoid sticking, rub the surface with vegetable oil, 
and wipe excess off with a paper towel.

■

Do not leave empty griddle on a hot surface cooking area or 
surface burner.

■

Do not overheat the griddle. The nonstick coating could be 
damaged.

■

The griddle should not be used to bake, broil or microwave.

■

To reduce spattering or grease spillover while cooking, avoid 
cooking food with excess fat.

■

To preserve durability, do not cut food on the griddle. 

■

Avoid use of metal utensils. 

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface 
burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently 
used areas to cool.

■

Center the canner on the grate above the burner. 

■

Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.

■

For more information, contact your local agricultural 
department. Companies that manufacture home canning 
products can also offer assistance.

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface 
cooking area, element or surface burner.

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a 
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy 
thickness.

Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and 
copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, 
when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the 
cooktop or grates.

Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is 
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has 
the same characteristics as its base material. For example, 
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the 
properties of aluminum.

Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the 
broiler.
