USING THE SURFACE BURNERS

wWARNING

Fire Hazard

Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan.

Turn off all controls when not cooking.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

Using the control knobs

Your range comes with electric ignitors. Electric ignitors automatically light the burners each time you turn the control knobs to LIGHT.

•Place a filled pan on the burner grate before turning on the surface burner. Do not operate a burner for extended periods of time without having cookware on the grate.

•Push in the control knob and turn it counter- clockwise to the LIGHT position. The clicking sound is the ignitor sparking. Make sure the burner has lit.

• To stop the clicking

sound after the burner

lights, turn the control

knob to the cook setting you want. You can set the control knob

anywhere between HIGH and LOW.

NOTE: All four electric ignitors will click at the same time. However, the burner with the control knob turned to LIGHT is the one that will ignite.

Using ACCUSIMMER

ACCUSIMMER is an adjustable setting for the right rear burner. It allows more accurate simmer control at the lowest setting.

•Preheat your pots and pans only when recommended and for the shortest time possible.
