To obtain the best cooking results possible, you must operate your range properly. This section gives you important information for efficient and safe use of your range.

Using the surface burners

Your range is equipped with either standing pilots or electric ignitors. Standing pilots must be lit initially with a match following the direc- tions on page 11. The pilot light will remain lit when the burners are turned off. To turn a burner on again, just push in and turn the

control knob counterclockwise to LITE and the burner will light. Electric ignitors automati- cally light the burners each time the control knob is turned to LITE.

Push in the control knob and turn counter- clockwise to the LITE position. On electric ignitor models, the clicking sound is the ignitor sparking. Visually check that burner has lit.

After the burner lights, turn the control knob to the desired setting. You can set the control knob anywhere between HI and OFF.

Surface burner markers

l Make eggs tough and crisp at the edges. l Toughen liver, fish, and seafood.

l Scorch delicate sauces and custards. l Cause a boilover.
