Customer Questions and Answers for Surface Burner Cap by Frigidaire

This surface burner cap sits atop the gas burner head to distribute flame evenly and protect the burner from spills, helping restore steady flames and reliable ignition when the original cap is worn, warped, or missing.

• Distributes flame for more even heating across cookware
• Shields the burner head from boil-overs and debris
• Supports proper ignition when correctly seated and level
• Common signs it's needed: missing cap, chips/cracks, warping, uneven or yellow flames

• Allow the cooktop to cool completely; shut off gas/power if performing additional service
• Remove the grate, lift off the old cap, and clean the burner head surface
• Center the new cap on the burner head so it sits flat and does not rock
• Test the burner; if ignition is delayed or flames are uneven, reseat the cap
