Getting Started

The locating pins on the outside edges of the cooktop fit into notches on the bot- tom of the grates.

 

Figure 7: Grates for Slide-in Models - Locating Pins

 

Burner grates should rest flat on the cooktop. When properly positioned, the

 

grates will be level and will not move back and forth.

Electronic Ignitor

The cooktop uses electronic ignitors to light the burners, There is no pilot light.

 

Each burner has its own ignitor. For proper operation, keep the ignitor clean and

 

dry. It is necessary to clean these when there is a boilover or when the burner

 

does not light even though the ignitor clicks.

 

CAUTION:

 

All ignitors spark when any single burner is turned on. Do not touch

 

any of the burners when the cooktop is in use.

High Power Burner

The high power burner is the largest burner. It is the most powerful burner on the

 

cooktop. It retains heat longer than normal burner caps and, at low settings, pro-

 

hibits the flame from touching the cookware. This results in a gentle, more pre-

 

dictable heat. Use the low settings on this burner to simmer large amounts of

 

sauces or soups. Use the high settings to quickly bring large amounts of water to

 

a boil.

Precision Burner

The precision burner is the smallest burner on the cooktop. It is well suited for

 

gentle cooking of small amounts of food. Use the burner to melt butter or choco-

 

late or to prepare delicate sauces.

Oven Racks

Depending on model, the range is equipped with one of the following combina-

 

tions:

 

• Two flat racks and one full extension rack

 

• Two flat racks and one half rack

 

• Three flat racks

Flat Oven Racks

The racks are designed with a stop so they will stop before coming completely

 

out of the oven and not tilt.

 

CAUTION:

 

To avoid burns, place oven racks in desired positions before turning

 

oven on. Always use oven mitts when the oven is warm. If a rack

 

must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let oven mitts contact

 

hot elements.
