SURFACE COOKING

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.

PILOTLESS IGNITION

tent 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.SURFACE CONTROLS

SETTING THE CONTROLS:

1.Place a pan on the burner grate.

The burner flame may lift off or appear separated from the port if a pan is not placed on the grate.

2.Push in and turn the knob counterclock- wise to the LIGHT 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 to the LIGHT position.)

3.After the burner lights, turn knob to desired flame size.

The ignitor will continue to spark until the knob is turned past the Light position.

OPERATING DURING A POWER FAILURE

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

2Push in and turn the control knob slowly to LIGHT.

3Adjust the flame to the desired level.

CAUTION:

•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 to LIGHT.

Pilotless ignition eliminates the need for a constant standing pilot light. Each surface burner has a spark ignitor. Use care when cleaning around the surface burner. If clean- ing cloth should catch the ignitor, it could be damaged, preventing ignition.

If the surface burner does not light, check if ignitor is broken, soiled or wet. If clogged, clean the small port beneath the ignitor using straight pin or a soft bristle brush.

Settings

 

Uses

HIGH

 

Use HIGH 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.

LOW

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

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