To obtain the best cooking results possible, you must operate your range properly. This
section gives you important information for efficient and safe use of your range.
Using the surface burners
Your range is equipped with electric ignitors.
Electric ignitors automatically light the burn-
ers each time they are used.
Push in and turn
counterclockwise
Push in control knob and turn counter-
clockwise to the LITE position. The clicking
sound is the ignitor sparking. Visually check
that burner has lit.
To stop the clicking sound after the
burner lights, turn the control knob to the
desired cook setting. The control knob has
6 cook settings. However, you can set the
control knob anywhere between HI and OFF.
NOTE: All the electric ignitors will click at
the same time. However, the burner with the
control knob turned to LITE is the one that
will ignite.
Surface burner markers
The solid dot in the surface burner marker
shows which surface burner is turned on by
that knob.

page). If the heat setting is too high, it can:
l Char bacon and cause curling.
l Make eggs tough and crisp at the edges.
l Toughen liver, fish, and seafood.
l Scorch delicate sauces and custards.
l Cause a boilover.
