Operation
About the Appliance
Use the cooktop for surface cooking applications such as boiling, frying, simmering, steaming and sauteing.
Operation
WARNING:
The burning of gas cooking fuel can create small amounts of Carbon Monoxide, Benzene, Formaldehyde and Soot. To minimize exposure to these substances, the burners should be adjusted by a certified installer or agency to ensure proper combustion. Ensure proper ventilation with an open window or use a ventilation fan or hood when cooking with gas. Always operate the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
The cooktop has one control knob for each burner. Push down and turn to the desired heat setting.
Normal Operation (Electronic Ignition/ Reignition)
The cooktop uses electronic igniters to light the burners. There is no pilot light. Each burner has its own igniter. If a burner flame blows out during use, the burner will automatically reignite.
CAUTION:
Do not touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in use.
SGS models only: All ignitors spark when any single burner is turned on.
The ignitor should be clean and dry for proper operation.
•Avoid getting water or food on the igniter.
•If the igniter is wet or soiled, it may spark without igniting the burner, or even spark continuously when a flame is present.
NOTE:
If the burner does not light within 4 seconds, turn the burner off. Check to see that the burner cap is positioned correctly on the burner base and the igniter is clean and dry. If a burner still fails to ignite, see “Before Calling for Service” on page 17.
When a flame is present and a Low setting is used, the igniter may occasionally spark. This is normal.
In the Event of a Power Failure
In the event of a power failure, only the standard burners can be ignited manually. If the cooktop is being used when a power failure occurs, turn all the burner control knobs to the OFF position. The standard burners can then be ignited manually 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 before adjusting the flame to the desired height.
The two ExtraLow® burners on SGSX models cannot be ignited manually. Be sure to turn ExtraLow knobs OFF if a power failure occurs. The burners will not turn back on until both control knobs are turned OFF and then turned back ON again after power has been restored. See “WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS” on page 1.
WARNING:
The reignition feature will not work in the event of a power failure.
