Sealed 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

uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover and
routinely remove and clean the caps according to the “General
Cleaning” section.

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
