- Let the cooktop cool, then lift off the grates, burner caps and heads. Do not remove the oval burner middle cap.
- Wash the burner caps in hot soapy water and rinse them. Run water through the oval burner from the bottom stem to flush out debris.
- To remove burnt-on food, soak the burner heads in mild liquid detergent and hot water for 20 to 30 minutes. Use a toothbrush or wire brush on stubborn stains.
- Shake out excess water and let the parts dry thoroughly.
- Put the burner heads and caps back over the electrodes in the correct locations by size, with the hole in each head over its electrode.
Do not use steel wool or scouring powders on the burners. Burners will not light if a cap is removed.
