COOKTOP USE

Setting the Control Knobs

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan.

Turn off all controls when not cooking.

REMEMBER: When cooktop is in use, the entire cook- top area may become hot.

Power failure

In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob counterclockwise to LITE. After burner lights, turn knob to setting.

Burner Use Suggestions:

Use the right front, right rear or left rear burners for simmering, or for cooking smaller quantities of food requiring small cookware.

Use the left front POWER™ Burner for bringing liquids to a rapid boil, cooking large quantities of food, or for deep-fat frying requiring large cookware.

Sealed Surface Burners

IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

Electric ignitors automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned to LITE.

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without cookware on the grate.

To Set:

1.Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LITE.

All four surface burners will click. Only the burner with the control knob turned to LITE will produce a flame.

2.Turn knob anywhere between HI and LO. Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help prevent poor ignition and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the “General Cleaning” section.

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas tube opening. Protect it from spillovers by always using a burner cap.
