Burner Heads/Caps
For even and unhampered flame, the slits in the burner heads must be kept clean at all times. The burner heads and caps (and
the oval burner head and cap assembly) can be lifted off. Do not attempt to remove the oval burner cap.
y Wash the burner bases and caps in hot soapy water and rinse with clean water. Run water through the oval burner from the
bottom stem to flush out debris.
y Any spills on or around an electrode must be carefully cleaned.
y To remove burnt-on food, soak the burner heads in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water for 20–30 minutes.
For stubborn stains, use a toothbrush or wire brush.
y The burners will not operate properly if the burner ports or electrodes are clogged or dirty. Use a wire brush or pipe cleaner
to unclog ports on the oval burner.
y Burner caps and heads should be cleaned routinely, especially after bad spillovers.
y Burners will not light if the cap is removed.
