BURNER EFFICIENCY and
FLAME CHARACTERISTICS
The burner flame should be blue in color and stable with
no yellow tips, excessive noise or fluttering. It should
burn completely around the burner cap.
Foreign particles in the gas line may cause an orange
flame during initial use. This should disappear with use.
If the flame does not burn evenly all the way around the
burner cap, be sure the cap is resting correctly on the
burner base and the gas ports are dry.
The burner should light in 4 seconds or less. If a
burner does not light, check to see that the cap is resting
correctly on the burner base.
POWER FAILURE
In the event of a power failure, each standard burner can
be manually lighted separately. The two ExtraLow
®
burners cannot be used during a power failure.
If the cooktop is being used when the power failure
occurs, turn all the burner control knobs to the OFF
position. Then, the standard burners can be lighted by
holding a match at the ports and turning the control
knob to the HI position. Wait until the flame is burning
all the way around the burner cap before adjusting the
flame to the desired height.
Be sure to turn the ExtraLow burners OFF if a power
failure occurs, as they will not turn back on until both
control knobs are turned OFF first. See “What To Do
If You Smell Gas,” Page 1.
The cooktop uses electronic igniters to
light the burners. Each burner has its
own igniter that sparks when
any burner
is turned on. When the igniters are
clicking (sparking), do not touch the
burners. If a burner fails to ignite, see “Before Calling
For Service,” inside back cover.
AUTOMATIC RE-IGNITION
If any burner flame blows out, the electronic igniter
automatically sparks on all burners to relight the flame.
IGNITERS
GRATES
The Burner Cap is porcelain enamel and has a tab (A) on
the underside that fits into the notch (B) on the burner
base (C). The circle of gas ports are located under the
burner cap. If these ports (D) are clogged, use a wire,
a straightened paper clip or a needle to clear the ports.
Do not use a toothpick; it could break off inside the port.
If the condition persists, contact a service agency for
adjustment.
