Besides on burner causing igniters to fire that shouldn’t there should be a warning on the bottom of the stove not to place anything on this area.   I put tinfoil on the bottom and it melted on to the bottom permanently.   Bran new stove and it’s damaged.  Who would have thought this would melt.  They tell you in the book but I think it’s not enough given the severity of what can happen if you do.  Very disappointed
