Turning on

￿To turn on the burner, press the control knob down and turn it counterclockwise to the large flame symbol. The ignitor will click and ignite the gas.

￿When the flame appears, keep the control knob pressed in for

8-10 seconds to allow the Ignition Safety Control to reach operating temperature and release it.

If the flame goes out, repeat the above procedure, keeping the control knob pressed in for a few extra seconds.

￿Adjust the knob between the large and small flame to the desired setting.

Since the outer portion of the flame is much hotter than the center, the flame should be set so that its tips do not extend beyond the sides of the pan. Flame tips which extend beyond the sides of the pan are hazardous.

This stops the flow of gas and turns off the burner.

The knob must only be turned left to turn the appliance on and right to turn it off.

If the knob is turned,

-on without pressing it down first,

-clockwise past the 12 o’clock position, or

-counterclockwise past the smallest flame symbol,

parts of the cooktop may be damaged. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for these damages.
