Before Lighting a Burner

If drip pans are supplied with your range, they should be used at all times. c Make sure all grates on the range are in place before using any burner.

To Light a Surface Burner

Electric Ignition Models:

Push the control knob in and

turn it to LITE. You will hear a little “clicking” noise—the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner.

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

Standing Pilot Model:

Push control knob in and turn it to HI position. The burner should light within a few seconds.

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

Flame will be almost horizontal and will lift slightly away from the burner when the burner is first turned on. A blowing or hissing sound may be heard for 30 to 60 seconds. This normal sound is due to improved injection of gas and air into the burner. Put a pan on the burner before lighting it, or adjust the flame to match pan size as soon as

it lights, and the blowing or hissing sound will be much less noticeable.

After Lighting a Burner

Check to be sure the burner you turned on is the one you want to use.

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.
