SURFACE COOKING

SURFACE CONTROLS

CAUTIONS:

If flame should go out during a cook- ing operation, turn the burner off. If a strong gas odor is detected, open a window and wait five minutes before relighting the burner.

Be sure all surface controls are set in the OFF position prior to supplying gas to the range.

NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some parts of the cooktop, especially around the burn- ers, to become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders to protect hands.

SETTING THE

CONTROLS

Your cooktop has sealed gas burners with automatic re-ignition. If the burner flame should go out, the system will automatically spark to re-ignite the burner.

1.Place a pan on the burner grate. (To preserve the grate finish, do not operate the burners without a pan on the grate to absorb the heat from the burner flame.)

2.Push in knob and turn immediately coun- terclockwise to the desired setting.

A clicking (spark) sound will be heard and the burner will light. (All four ignitors will spark when any surface burner knob is turned on. However, only the selected burner will light.)

OPERATING DURING A POWER FAILURE

1.Hold a lighted match to the desired surface burner head.

2.Push in and turn the control knob slowly to desired setting.

CAUTIONS:

•When lighting the surface burners, be sure all of the controls are in the OFF position. Strike the match first and hold it in position before turning the knob.

•Do not leave the cooktop unattended when cooking during a power failure. The automatic re-ignition feature will not operate during a power failure.

SURFACE CONTROL KNOBS

Use to turn on the surface burners. An

infinite choice of heat settings is available

from lo to hi. At the

hi setting a detent or

notch may be felt. The knobs can be set on or between any of the settings.

Graphics next to the knob identify which burner the knob controls. For example, the graphic at right shows the right

front burner location.

SUGGESTED HEAT SETTINGS

The size and type of cookware will affect the heat setting. For information on cookware and other factors affecting heat settings, refer to “Cooking Made Simple” booklet.

Settings

 

Uses

hi

 

Use hi to bring liquid to a boil, or reach pressure in a

 

 

 

pressure cooker. Always reduce setting to a lower heat when

 

 

 

 

 

 

liquids begin to boil or foods begin to cook.

An intermediate flame size is used to continue cooking. Food will not cook any faster when a higher flame setting is used than needed to maintain a gentle boil. Water boils at the same temperature whether boiling gently or vigorously.

lo

Use lo to simmer foods, keep foods warm and melt chocolate or butter.

Some cooking may take place on the lo setting if the pan is covered. It is possible to reduce the heat by rotating the knob toward OFF. Be sure flame is stable.
