Notes:
• A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light
within a few seconds. If using natural gas, the flame
will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.
If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas
mixture may be incorrect. Contact a service technician
to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by the war-
ranty.)
With LP gas, slight yellow tips on the flames are
acceptable. This is normal and adjustment is not
necessary.
• With some types of gas, you may hear a “popping”
sound when the surface burner is turned off. This is a
normal operating sound of the burner.
• If the control knob is turned very quickly from HIGH to
LOW, the flame may go out, particularly if the burner is
cold. If this occurs, turn the knob to the OFF position,
wait several seconds and relight the burner.
• The flame should be adjusted so it does not extend
beyond the edge of the pan.
Burner Grates
The grates must be properly positioned before cooking.
Do not operate the burners without a pan on the grate.
The grate’s porcelain finish may chip without a pan to
absorb the heat from the burner flame.
Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually
lose their shine and/or discolor, due to the high temperatures
of the gas flame.
USING YOUR COOKTOP
Using the Griddle (select models)
1. Before the first use, wash your new griddle in hot soapy
water. Do not immerse the terminal plug in water.
Rinse and dry. Then “condition” the surface by wiping on
a thin coating of cooking oil or shortening. Remove excess
oil or shortening by wiping again with a paper towel.
2. Before installing griddle, be certain griddle control knob is
in the OFF position. The basin pan needs to be clean. Slide
the griddle towards the receptacle until the terminal plug is
completely engaged. The griddle should rest on the basin
pan.
3. Preheat the griddle five minutes on HIGH.
4. Use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils while cooking to
prevent damage to the griddle finish.
5. When cooking meats, use the range hood to capture
smoke.
6. Refer to the following chart for cooking settings and times.
