prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of
the burner cap.

• Burners do not ignite.
• Burner flames light unevenly.
• Burner emits gas odor.

while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow the burners to
cool.

• Check each burner to make sure there is no gap
between the burner cap and burner base.
to see examples of correct and incorrect placements of
the burner cap.
• You may gently try to move the burner caps from side
to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the
burner bases. When properly placed, each burner cap
will rest flat on top of its burner base, and completely
cover the star-shape of the burner base when viewed
from the top as shown in

Ensure the burner grates are properly placed on the
cooktop before using the surface burners. The grates are
designed to rest inside the recess on the cooktop.
To install burner grates, place grates flat-side down and
align into the cooktop recess. Grates should rest flush
against each other and against the sides of the recess.
