Do-It-Yourself Maintenance

Power Failure

In the event of a power failure, only the standard burners can be lit manually. It is necessary to light each standard burner individually.

Intermittent or Constant Igniter Sparking

If the cooktop is being used when the power failure occurs turn all of the burner control knobs to the OFF position. The standard burners can be lit 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.

The two ExtraLow® burners on the left side cannot be used during a power failure. Be sure to turn them OFF if a power failure occurs because they will not turn back on until the control knobs are turned OFF and then turned back on again. See “WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS” on page 1.

If you have low gas pressure, contact your gas company.

Intermittent or constant sparking of the sealed gas surface burners can result from a number of preventable conditions. Eliminate these conditions as indicated in the following chart.

Rangetop Cleaning Tips

Use the mildest cleaning procedure that will do the job efficiently and effectively. Some cleaners of the same type are harsher than others. Try on a small inconspicuous area first.

The porcelain enamel finish is acid resistant, but not acid proof. Acidic foods, such as citrus juices, tomatoes, rhubarb, vinegar, alcohol or milk, should be wiped up and not allowed to bake onto the porcelain during the next use.

Always rub metal finishes in the direction of the polish lines for maximum effectiveness and to avoid marring the surface.

Use only clean soft cloths, sponges, paper towels, fibrous brushes, plastic, non-metal or steel wool soap pads for cleaning and scouring, as recommended in the chart.

Most exterior parts of this appliance can be cleaned with hot sudsy water (except the various items specifically identified otherwise). When rinsing is required, rinse thoroughly.

Always wipe dry immediately to avoid water marks.
