Electric Ignition
Your surface burners are lighted by electric ignition,
eliminating the need for standing pilot lights with
constantly burning flames.
In case of a power failure, you can light the surface
burners on your range with a match. Hold a lighted
match to the burner, then turn the knob to the LITE
position.
Use extreme caution when lighting burners
this way.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power
failure occurs will continue to operate normally.

around any burner while another burner is on.
An electric shock may result, which could cause
you to knock over hot cookware.

After Lighting a Burner
Check to be sure the burner you turned on is the one
you want to use.
Do not operate a 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.
Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you
place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or
other materials on them.
