COOKTOP USE
Cooktop Controls
Electric ignitors automatically light the surface burners when
control knobs are turned to LIGHT.
Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate.
Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or while the grate
is unoccupied.
To S et :
1.
Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LIGHT.
All four surface burners will click. Only the burner with the
control knob turned to LIGHT will produce a flame.
2.
Turn knob anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Use the
following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.
Power failure
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise to LIGHT. After burner lights, turn knob to
setting.
Sealed Surface Burners
1. Burner cap
2. Burner base
3. Alignment pins
4. Ignitor
5. Gas tube opening
IMPORTANT:
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap:
Always keep the burner cap in place when using a
surface burner. A clean burner cap will help prevent poor ignition
and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover
and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the
“General Cleaning” section.
Gas tube opening:
Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly.
Keep this area free of
soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any
other material to enter the gas tube opening.
Protect it from
spillovers by always using a burner cap.
