Using Your Cooktop

Electric ignition

Your surface burners are lit by electric ignition, eliminating the need for standing pilot lights with constantly burning flames.

All five igniters make clicking sounds and spark even when only a single burner is being turned on. Do not touch any of the burners when the igniters are clicking.

All of the burner igniters spark while a burner is relighting.

In case of a power outage, you can light the surface burners on your cooktop with a match. Hold a lighted match to the burner; then turn the knob to the HIGH position. Use extreme caution when lighting burners this way.

Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally.

To light a burner

Push the control knob down and turn it counterclockwise to the LITE position.

After the burner ignites, turn the knob in either direction to adjust the flame size from HI to LO.

To turn a burner off, turn the knob clockwise, as far as it will go, to the OFF position.

•All of the burners can be used for general cooking.

The front right burner is the maximum output burner best for larger pans and to bring liquids to a boil faster.

The smaller burners (center and right rear) will give the best simmer results. They offer precise cooking performance for delicate foods, such as sauces or foods which need to cook over low heat for a long time. They can be turned down to a very low simmer setting.

•Do not operate a burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.

•Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or other materials on them.

•Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF when you finish cooking.

How to select flame size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat.

The flame size on a gas burner should be approximately the same diameter of the cookware you are using.

FOR SAFE HANDLING OF COOKWARE, NEVER LET THE FLAME EXTEND UP THE SIDES OF THE COOKWARE. Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookware is wasted and only serves to heat the handle.
