Electric ignition

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

All the 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.

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 in and turn it counterclockwise to desired position from HIGH to LO.

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

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

The right rear burner is best for smaller pans and cooking operations requiring carefully controlled simmering conditions. The center and two left burners are best for general cooking. The front right burner is the high power burner for larger pans and fast boiling operations.

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.

Check to be sure the burner you turned on is

the one you want to use.

How to select flame size

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

The flame size on a gas burner should match 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.
