Checking Burner Cap Placement
• Check each burner to make sure there is no gap
between the burner cap and burner base. See
Figure 14 and Figure 15 for examples of correct and
incorrect placements of the burner cap.
• You may gently try to move the burner caps from side
to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the
burner bases. When properly placed, each burner cap
will rest flat on top of its burner base, and completely
cover the star-shape of the burner base when viewed
from the top as shown in Figure 14.
Power Failure
• In the event of a power failure, only the Standard
burners can be manually lit. It is necessary to light each
one individually.
• If the cooktop is being used when the power failure
occurs, turn all knobs to the OFF position.
• The Standard Star
®
burners can be lit by holding a
match at the ports and turning the control knob to the
HI position. Wait until the flame is burning all around
the burner cap before adjusting the flame to the
desired level.
• Do not attempt to light the two left and two right XLO
®
burners manually during a power failure. These
burners are equipped with the ExtraLow
®
feature and
cannot be lit manually.
• If an ExtraLow burner is on when a power failure
occurs, it cannot be turned back on until the knob is
first turned to the OFF position.
• The griddle or grill accessory cannot be used during a
power failure.
• If you smell gas, refer to safety precautions listed on
page 1.
WARNING:
In the event of a power failure, turn all knobs to
the OFF Position. Only the Standard Star
®
burners can be lit manually.
Flame Height
• The correct flame height depends on 1) size and
material of pan being used; 2) food being cooked; and
3) amount of liquid in the pan.
• Never extend the flame beyond the base of the pan.
• Use a low or medium flame for pan materials that
conduct the heat slowly, such as porcelain coated steel
or glass-ceramic.
