USING THE GAS SURFACE BURNERS
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
•Make sure all grates on the range are properly placed before using any burner.
•Be sure the burners and grates are cooled down before you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or other materials on them.
•Make sure all burners are in place.
•DO NOT operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate.
The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.

•To control the flame size, turn the knob. If the knob stays at “LITE”, it will continue to click.
•When turning a burner to “LITE”, all the burners spark. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. An electric shock may result, which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.
IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE
In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface burners on your range with a match.
Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in and turn the control knob to the “LITE” position. Use extreme caution when lighting burners this way.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally.

The extra large burner (right front) is the maximum output burner. Like the other four burners, it can be turned down from “HI” to “LO” for a wide range of cooking applications.
This burner is also designed to quickly bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. It can be used with cookware 10 inches or larger in diameter.
The oval burner (center) is for use with a griddle or oval pots.
NOTE: The right front burner, by design, is raised up from the cooktop. This is normal.
