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 “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. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are
properly aligned with the burner cap.
5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap
alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the
sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.
Grates
The grates on this range cover the full width of the cooktop. The
two grates may interlock (on some models), using the hook formed
into one end of both grates. The flat end of one grate drops onto
the hook on the other grate as shown in the following illustration.
On some models, the two grates are identical and can be used on
either the left or right side of the cooktop. Grates that are designed
for use on only one side of the cooktop will have either “LEFT” or
“RIGHT” embossed on the bottom side of the grate.

Select a burner that best fits your cookware. See the following
illustration and chart.
Griddle
To Use the Griddle:
1. Locate the griddle on the right side grate as shown. The
locating feet on the bottom of the griddle will engage the grate
tines to keep the griddle from sliding.
2. Before each use, brush on a thin layer of cooking oil to keep
food from sticking. Cooking sprays may leave a sticky residue
on the griddle that is hard to remove.
3. Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes. Preheating the griddle slowly
will ensure even heat distribution and will avoid warping the
griddle.
4. For preheating and cooking, set the front burner to the lowest
heat setting and the rear burner to medium-high heat for best
performance.
NOTE: The griddle may also be used on the left side grate. For
best results, the rear burner setting should be set to Medium-
Low or Medium, and the front burner setting should be set to
Low.
