mMPORTANT mNSTRUCTmONS FOR USmNG
YOUR COOKTOP

Use proper flame size--Adjust flame size

so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil, The
use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing, Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also
improve efficiency,

Do not use stove top grills on the burner

grates of sealed gas burners, If you use a stove top grill
on a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete

combustion and can result in exposure to carbon
monoxide levels above allowable current standards, This

can be hazardous to your health,

° Do not use water or flour on grease fires--Smother

the fire with a pan tid, or use baking soda, a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

, When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or

grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot,

in case of fire or gas teak, be sure to

turn off the main gas shutoff valve.

Use onJy dry pothoJders--Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may resuJt in burns from steam. Do
not let potholders touch hot heating burners, Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder,

, Do not heat unopened food containers--Buildup of

pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.

Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with

one or more surface burners of different sizes, Select
utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the

surface burner, The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the surface burner to direct contact

and may result in ignition of clothing, Proper relationship
of utensil to the surface burner will also improve

efficiency,

Utensil handles should be turned inward and not

extend over adjacent surface burners, To reduce the

risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and

spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is

turned inward, and does not extend to adjacent surface
burners,

Assembly of the Surface Burner Heads, Burner Caps,
Burner Grates and FJue Covers

It is very important to make sure that all of the Surface Burner Heads,
Surface Burner Caps and Surface Burner Grates are installed correctly and

at the correct locations.

1. Place all 4 Burner Heads in the correct locations (See Figure 1). Make
sure that the correct Burner Head is placed with the corresponding

Orifice Holder and that the Electrode is located properly in the slot of
each Burner Head (See Figure 2). Proper Burner Head placement

insures that each Bumerwill have the correct spark required for surface
gas ignition.

2. Place the correct Burner Caps at each of the burner locations (Burner
Cap Pilot Hole must face up). Each of the 4 (four) Burner Heads MUST

have a Burner Cap installed to insure proper ignition and gas flame size
and must be in place with the Pilot Hole facing up BEFORE placing the

Burner Grates (See Figure 2).

3. Place the 2 (two) cast iron Burner Grates supplied with the range.
Carefully lineup the 2 Grate Pins on each Grate with the Cap Pilot Holes

in the 2 Burner Caps on each side of the range. DO NOT force the
Burner Grates onto the Burner Caps. Forcing the grates down onto

improperly installed Burner Heads and Burner Caps may damage the
gas burners. Each Burner Cap is designed with aCap Pilot Hole in the

top center of the Cap. Visually check that ALL the Grate Pins line up
into the Burner Cap Pilot Holes (See Figure 2). Properly installed

Burner Grates will rest with all four Grate legs on the glass cooktop.

4. Place the 2 (two) flue covers over the inner vent cover as shown on
figure 3.

REMEMBER-- DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD, CLEANING AGENTS
OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER

OPENING, Always keep the Burner Caps and Burner Heads in place
whenever the surface burners are in use,
