Fire Hazard
Do not let the burner flame extend beyond
the edge of the pan.
Turn off all controls when not cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death or fire.
USING YOUR RANGE
NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or cookware
which has boiled dry, on a hot surface burner. The
cookware could overheat, causing damage to the
cookware or cooking product.
Easy ways to save energy
• To help shorten your cooking time, use the least
amount of liquid possible.
• Start your food on a higher heat setting, then turn
the control to a lower setting to finish cooking.
Using the control knobs
Your range comes with electric ignitors. Electric
ignitors automatically light the burners each time
you turn the control knobs to LIGHT.
• Place a filled pan on the burner grate before turn-
ing on the surface burner. Do not operate a burn-
er for extended periods of time without having
cookware on the grate.
• Push in the control knob and turn it counter-
clockwise to the
LIGHT position. The
clicking sound is the
ignitor sparking. Make
sure the burner has lit.
• To stop the clicking
sound after the burner
lights, turn the control
knob to the cook set-
ting you want. You can
set the control knob
anywhere between HIGH and LOW.
NOTE: All four electric ignitors will click at the same
time. However, the burner with the control knob
turned to LIGHT is the one that will ignite.
