Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and
shape as shown in the previous illustration. 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.
To Clean:
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 burner cap from the burner base and clean
according to the "General Cleaning" section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
3. 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.
4. Each round burner cap is marked with letters indicating the
burner size. Replace the burner cap, making sure the
alignment pins are properly aligned with the burner cap. Place
the burner caps on the appropriate burner bases.
IMPORTANT: The bottom of the small and medium caps are
different. Do not put the wrong size burner cap on the burner
base.
5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, verify the
burner cap placement and check cap and burner base
alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the
sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.
Melt Cap
For melting chocolate or butter or an even more delicate simmer, the
melt cap can be used in place of the standard burner cap. The melt
cap should only be used on the small burner (right rear). Remove the
small burner cap and replace it with the larger melt cap for delicate
simmering. For less delicate simmering, use the small cap.

Surface Grates
The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. In the
proper position, the grates should be flush and level. Improper
installation of the grates may result in chipping or scratching of the
cooktop.
To ensure proper positioning, align bumpers on grate bottom with
the indentations in the cooktop. See cooktop illustrations in the
"Parts and Features" section for proper grate positioning.
Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually lose
their shine and/or discolor due to the high temperatures of the
gas flame.
Downdraft Ventilation System
C
A. Removable grease filter
B. Downdraft grate
C. Filter support tray (non-removable)
The built-in downdraft ventilation system removes cooking
vapors, odors, and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop.
IMPORTANT: For optimal performance, operate downdraft
ventilation system with the filter properly installed.
To avoid the buildup of grease, the filter should be cleaned often.
The filter should always be placed at an angle. As you face the
front of the cooktop, the top of the filter should rest against the
right side of the vent opening. The bottom of the filter should rest
against the left side of the vent chamber at the bottom.
If the filter is flat against the fan wall, ventilation effectiveness
will be reduced.
