to OFF and burner grates are cool.

have a swing-up rod to support the cooktop in its 
raised position.

4.  Lower the top gently after lowering the support rod 
(some models).

or bend the cooktop when raising or lowering. This 
could damage the surface.

DO NOT turn on the burners when the cooktop is 
raised for cleaning. Be sure that the top is completely 
lowered and securely in place before turning on the

care & cleaning
to remove and replace Burners
The burners on your cooktop maybe removed for cleaning. 
Be sure all controls are turned to OFF and burner grates 
are cool before removing cooktop burner units.
to remove Burners 
1.  Remove the shipping screws from the support 
bracket. See illustrations for location of screws. 
2.  Grasp the burner head and tilt it to the right to release 
the tab from the burner support (A in Figure 1).
3.  Lift the end of the burner assembly. Then pull away 
from the front of the cooktop to free the air shutter 
from the gas valve orifice (B in Figure 1).
If your cooktop is equipped with a standing gas pilot, use 
caution when removing burner. The flash tube may be 
hot because it is located near the pilot.
Check the lighter and burner ports (Figure 2). If they are 
clogged, use a wire or needle to clear them.
To remove burned-on food, soak the burners in a vinegar 
and water solution for 20-30 minutes. For stubborn 
stains, scrub with soap and water or a mild abrasive 
cleanser and a damp cloth. Do not wash burners in a 
dishwasher.

to replace Burners
1.  Slide the air shutter over the gas valve orifice (Figure 
1). 
2.  Lower the burner assembly and hook the tab in the 
slots in the burner support. Make sure it is properly 
seated and level.
3.  Be sure both tabs are in the correct slots, the burner 
sits level and straight, and the flash tube forms a 
straight line from the igniter to the burner (Figure 2).
4.  Replace shipping screws if desired. These screws are 
not necessary for the operation of the burner. They 
stabilize the burner during shipping of the appliance. 
Retain the screws for later use in the event the range 
is moved.
