Surface Cooking

Cooktop

To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining:

Clean cooktop after each use.

Wipe acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has

cooled as these spills may discolor the porcelain.

Unlike a range with standard gas burners, this cooktop does not lift-up nor is it

removable. Do not attempt to lift the cooktop for any reason.

Sealed Burners

The sealed burners of your range are secured to the cooktop and are not designed to be removed. Since the burners are sealed into the cooktop, boilovers or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop.

However, the burner should be cleaned after each use. The head portion of the burner is easily removed for cleaning. (See page 20 for cleaning directions.)

The burner heads must be correctly placed on the burner base for proper operation of the burner.

High Performance Burner

(16,000 BTU*)

There is one high speed burner on your range, located in the right front position. This burner offers higher speed cooking that can be used to quickly bring water to a boil and for large- quantity cooking.

Simmer Burner

This burner is located in the right rear position. The simmer burner offers a lower BTU flame for delicate sauces or melting chocolate.

* BTU ratings will vary when using LP gas.

Notes:

A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light within a few seconds. If using natural gas, the flame will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.

If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas mixture may be incorrect. Contact a service technician to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by the war- ranty.)

With LP gas, slight yellow tips on the flames are acceptable. This is normal and adjustment is not necessary.

With some types of gas, you may hear a “popping” sound when the surface burner is turned off. This is a normal operating sound of the burner.

If the control knob is turned very quickly from High to Low, the flame may go out, particularly if the burner is cold. If this occurs, turn the knob to the OFF position, wait several seconds and relight the burner.

The flame should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.
