Surface Cooking

Cooktop

To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining:

•Clean cooktop after each use.

•Wipe acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has cooled as these spills may discolor the

porcelain.

Unlike a range with standard gas burners, this cooktop does not lift-up nor is it

removable. Do not attempt to lift the cooktop for any reason.

Sealed Gas Burners

The sealed burners of your range are secured to the cooktop and are not designed to be removed. Since the burners are sealed into the cooktop, boilovers or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop.

However, the burner cap and base should be cleaned after each use. The cap portion of the burner is easily removed for cleaning. (See page 17 for cleaning directions.)

The burner caps must be correctly placed on the burner base for proper operation of the burner.

Burner Grates

The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. When installing the grates, place the tab ends toward the center, matching the straight bars.

Improper installation of the grates may result in chipping of the cooktop.

Do not operate the burners without a pan on the grate. The grate’s porcelain finish may chip without a pan to absorb the heat from the burner flame.

Use care when stirring food in a pot/pan sitting on the burner grate. The grates have a smooth finish for ease of cleaning. The pot/pan will slide if the handle is not held. This may result in spilling of hot food items and may be a burn hazard.

Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually lose their shine and/or discolor, due to the high temperatures of the gas flame.

Power Boost High Performance Burner (12,000 BTU*)

There is one high speed burner located in the right front position on your range. This burner offers higher speed cook- ing that can be used to quickly bring water to a boil and for large-quantity cooking.

Simmer Burner*

This burner is located in the left rear position. The simmer burner offers a Melt setting with a lower BTU* flame for melting chocolate or butter.

* BTU ratings will vary when using LP gas.

Notes

•A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light within a few seconds. If using natural gas, the flame will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.

If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas mixture may be incorrect. Contact a service technician to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by the warranty.)

With LP gas, slight yellow tips on the flames are acceptable. This is normal and adjustment is not necessary.

•With some types of gas, you may hear a “popping” sound when the surface burner is turned off. This is a normal operating sound of the burner.

•If the control knob is turned very quickly from High to Low, the flame may go out, particularly if the burner is cold. If this occurs, turn the knob to the OFF position, wait several seconds and relight the burner.

•The flame should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.
