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

cooktop is cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust removers.

2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
