Electronic Ignition System

Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments

This cooktop is equipped for electronic auto-reignition by means of a spark igniter located at the rear of each burner. The burners are designed to light at any valve rotation that admits sufficient gas flow to support a flame and to automatically relight following a loss of flame due to a draft or other adverse condition. This feature is provided only as a convenience.

Check Operation of Surface Burners

Push in and turn the surface burners control knobs to light.

The surface burner flame should light within 4 seconds. The first time a surface burner is lighted it may take longer that 4 seconds to light because of air in the gas line.

Check the flame on “HIGH” for a blue color. It should be clean and soft in character. No yellow tip, blowing or lifting of flame should occur. Occasional orange flashes are normal and reflect different elements in the air or gas.

After verifying the proper burner operation, turn the control knobs to “OFF.”

If burners do not light properly:

■Turn surface burner control knob to the “OFF” position.

■Check that the power supply cord is plugged in and the circuit breaker has not tripped or the fuse blown.

■Check that the gas shutoff valves are set to the “open” position.

■Check that burner caps are properly positioned on burner bases.

Recheck operation of surface burners. If a burner does not light at this point, contact your dealer or authorized service company for assistance.

Adjust Flame Height

Smart Port Burner System

This cooktop is equipped with a Smart Port Burner System. The Smart Port Burner System produces a small flame directly under each grate finger and a larger flame between each grate finger.

The visual difference between the ports will be noticeable when the burner is used or when adjustments are made to the flame length.

Adjust the height of top burner flames. The cooktop “low” burner flame should be a steady blue flame approximately ¼" (0.64 cm) high.

A.Low flame

B.High flame

To adjust standard burners:

The flame can be adjusted using the adjustment screw in the center of the valve stem. The valve stem is located directly underneath the control knob.

If the “low” flame needs to be adjusted:

1.Light 1 burner and turn to lowest setting.

2.Remove the control knob.

3.Hold the knob stem in the low position using a pair of pliers. Use an ¹⁄₈" (3.0 mm) flat-blade screwdriver to turn the screw located in the center of the control knob stem until the flame is the proper size.

4.Replace the control knob.

5.Test the flame by turning the control from “LO” to “HI,” checking the flame at each setting.

6.Repeat above steps for each burner.
