Gas burners
23
US CA
The knob (Fig. 23) controls the flow of gas through the safety valve.
OFF | = | closed valve |
HI | = | maximum flow |
LO | = | minimum flow |
You can choose to cook at any heat between LO and HI, but never between HI and OFF.
Using the burners
1Choose the control knob for the burner you want to use.
2 Press the knob down gently and turn it counterclockwise to the HI position. The ignitors on all the burners will spark.
Hold down the knob for approximately 10 seconds after the burner has lit. Releasing the
knob too soon will extinguish the flame.
3Adjust the flame anywhere between the HI and LO positions. Do not adjust the flame between HI and OFF.
Note: if the burner does not light within 15 seconds, turn the control knob off and wait at
least one minute before trying again.
4After use, always turn the knobs to the OFF position and close the gas
Flame failure safety feature

Your cooktop has a flame failure safety device; each burner is equipped with a flame failure probe as well as the ignitor (see Fig. 25).
The flame failure probe cuts off the gas supply to the burner if the flame is blown out. If this happens, turn off the burner and do not try to light it again for at least one minute (to allow the gas to disperse).
