COOKTOP USE - KFGU COOKTOPS

Cooktop Controls

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan.

Turn off all controls when not cooking.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

IMPORTANT: Your cooktop is factory-set for use with Natural Gas. If you wish to use LP Gas, an LP Gas Conversion Kit is included with your new cooktop. See the instructions included with the LP Gas Conversion Kit for details on making this conversion.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned to Lite.

The large burners (10,000, 12,000 and 20,000 Btu/h [British Thermal Units] on 36" [91.4 cm] models and 9,100, 12,000 and 15,000 Btu/h on 30" [76.2 cm] models) provide the highest heat setting, and are ideal for cooking large quantities of food or liquid, using large pots and pans. The small burners, 6,000 and

7,000 Btu/h and the inner crown of the central burner allow more accurate simmer control at the lowest setting, and are ideal for cooking smaller quantities of food, using smaller pots and pans.

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner while using empty cookware or without any cookware on the grate.

Reignition Features

During the cooking cycle, if one or more burners power off due to external causes (such as water spillage, wind, etc.), the ignition system will turn on to reignite the flame. When the flame comes back on, the system will stop sparking. Sparking may also occasionally occur when using the low setting on a burner.

If the flame does not recover within 4 seconds, the cooktop will lock. The Cooktop Lock indicator light will turn on and a long beep will sound.

To unlock the cooktop, turn all control knobs to the Off position, the Cooktop Lock indicator light will turn off. Before restarting, check that the burners are clean. See “Sealed Surfaces Burners” section. You may then continue cooking.

Cooktop Lock

The Cooktop Lock helps to avoid unintended use of the surface burners. If a control knob is turned to Lite when the Cooktop Lock is on, you will hear clicking and you may see the igniter sparking, but the burner will not light.

To activate:

Turn off all burners and touch the lock key for 3 seconds. When the Cooktop Lock activates, the Cooktop Lock Indicator Light will turn on, and 1 long beep will sound.

To deactivate:

Touch the lock key for 3 seconds, the indicator light will turn off, and 1 long beep will sound.

Tones

Tones are audible signals, indicating the following:

One Long Beep

■Activation/deactivation of the Cooktop Lock function

Three Short Beeps

■Invalid operation - attempting to lock or unlock the cooktop with 1 or more burners are on.

NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does not ignite, listen for a clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter click, turn off the burner. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown household fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the valve shaft and that the lock valve is not activated. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained repair specialist.

Proper grounding and polarity are necessary for correct operation of the electric ignition system. If the wall receptacle does not provide correct polarity, the igniters will become grounded and occasionally click, even after the burner has ignited. Contact a trained repair specialist to check the wall receptacle to see whether it is wired with the correct polarity.

Hot Surface Indicator Light

The Hot Surface Indicator Light is located between the left front and center control knobs. The Hot Surface Indicator Light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area(s) is turn off.

If the cooktop is on when a power failure occurs, the Hot Surface Indicator Lights will remain on after the power is restored to the cooktop. They will remain on until the cooktop has cooled completely.

After a power failure, when the power failure is restored, the Hot Surface Indicator Light can stay on for up to 30 minutes.

Times when this is most likely to occur:

■After the cooktop is first installed.

■After a power failure.

■After a power failure while the cooktop is still cooling (30 to 40 minutes after cooking).

■Any time power is disconnected from the cooktop.

Power Failure

Cooktop will not operate during a power failure.
