Use and Care - Model MGR6875AD*

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 Burners

The sealed burner bases 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 base should be cleaned after each use. The cap portion of the burner is easily removed for cleaning. (See page 20 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. Lower the grates onto the range so that the bars match up and the rubber feet located at the four corners of the grates sit in the indentations on the cooktop.

Improper installation or removal of the grates may result in chipping or scratching of the cooktop. It may also cause pans to be unsteady on the grates.

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.

High Performance Burners

There is one 16,000 BTU* high speed burner on your range, located in the left front position. There is a 12,000 BTU* burner located in the right front position. These burners offer higher speed cooking that can be used to quickly bring water to a boil and for large-quantity cooking.

Simmer Burner

This burner is located in the center position. The simmer burner offers a lower BTU* flame for delicate sauces or melting chocolate.

* 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 war- ranty.)

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.
