General 9 information
Setting Surface Controls
The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room.
Each cone of flame should be steady and sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean burner, see
instructions under General Cleaning.
Each burner lights automatically from an electric ignitor each time a control knob is turned to the LITE position.
To operate the surface burner:
1. Place cooking utensil on burner.
2. Push in and turn the Surface Control knob
counterclockwise to LITE.
3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. After the burner ignites, turn the control knob to the desired flame size. The knob can now be
turned in either direction without being pushed in. The control knobs do not have to be set at a
particular mark. Use the guides and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the control
knob in the LITE position, as this will cause excess wear on the ignitor electrode.
5. To turn the burner off, turn the control knob clockwise as far as it will go, to the OFF position.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. To light a
surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface control knob to
LITE. After the burner ignites, turn the control knob to the desired flame size. Use caution when
lighting surface burners manually.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally.
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.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Pot holders, towels or wood spoons could catch
fire if placed too close to a flame.
Before Setting Oven Controls
Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented through at the rear of the cooktop. When the oven is on, warm
air is released through the vents. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation
in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT block the vents. Doing so may cause
cooking failures, fire or damage to the appliance
Arranging Oven Racks
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO OPERATING
THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.
To remove an oven rack, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and
slide out.
To replace an oven rack, Fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front
of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.
