COOKTOP USE
Cooktop Controls
Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when
control knobs are turned to IGNITE.
Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate.
Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or while the grate
is unoccupied.
To Set:
1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to IGNITE.
All 4 surface burners will click. Only the burner with the
control knob turned to IGNITE will produce a flame.
2. Turn knob anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Use the
following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach
or rust removers.
Power™ Burner (on some models)
The left front burner is designed to give ultra-high power when it
is fully on. It can be used to rapidly bring liquid to a boil and to
cook large quantities of food.
ACCUSIMMER
®
Burner (on some models)
The right rear burner has an adjustable heat setting for more
precise simmering and low temperature cooking.
Power failure
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise to IGNITE. After burner lights, turn knob to
setting.
Sealed Surface Burners
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a
surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition
and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover
and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the
“General Cleaning” section.
Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil
and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Protect it from spillovers
by always using a burner cap.
