IGNITERS

The cooktop uses electronic igniters to light the burners. Each burner has its own igniter that sparks when any burner is turned on. When the igniters are clicking (sparking), do not touch the

burners. If a burner fails to ignite, see “Before Calling For Service,” inside back cover.

AUTOMATIC RE-IGNITION

If any burner flame blows out, the electronic igniter automatically sparks on all burners to relight the flame.

▲! WARNING Do not clean or touch any of the burners when one or both XLO® burners are in use. When the XLO burner automatically reignites, the igniters at all the burners will spark.

Igniter

In the event of a power failure, each standard burner can be manually lighted separately. The two ExtraLow® burners cannot be used during a power failure.

If the cooktop is being used when the power failure occurs, turn all the burner control knobs to the OFF position. Then, the standard burners can be lighted by holding a match at the ports and turning the control knob to the HI position. Wait until the flame is burning all the way around the burner cap before adjusting the flame to the desired height.

Be sure to turn the ExtraLow burners OFF if a power failure occurs, as they will not turn back on until both control knobs are turned OFF first. See “What To Do If You Smell Gas,” Page 1.

C

B Notch

The Burner Cap is porcelain enamel and has a tab (A) on the underside that fits into the notch (B) on the burner base (C). The circle of gas ports are located under the burner cap. If these ports (D) are clogged, use a wire, a straightened paper clip or a needle to clear the ports. Do not use a toothpick; it could break off inside the port. If the condition persists, contact a service agency for adjustment.

BURNER EFFICIENCY and

FLAME CHARACTERISTICS

The burner flame should be blue in color and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or fluttering. It should burn completely around the burner cap.

Foreign particles in the gas line may cause an orange flame during initial use. This should disappear with use.

If the flame does not burn evenly all the way around the burner cap, be sure the cap is resting correctly on the burner base and the gas ports are dry.

The burner should light in 4 seconds or less. If a burner does not light, check to see that the cap is resting correctly on the burner base.
