EN
Burner Use Suggestions
Use the right front, right rear or left rear burners for
simmering, or for cooking smaller quantities of food
requiring small cookware. Use the left front POWER Burner
for bringing liquids to a rapid boil, cooking large quantities
of food, or for deep-fat frying requiring large cookware.
The Burner Flames
Turn each burner on. Flames should be blue in color with no
trace of yellow. The burner flames should not flutter or blow
away from the burner. The inner cone of the flame should be
between 1/2” and 3/4” long.
Super Sealed Surface Burners
IMPORTANT
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air
around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap and gas spreader
Always keep the burner cap and gas spreader in place
when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap and
spreader will help prevent poor ignition and uneven flames.
Always clean the part after a spillover and routinely remove
and clean according to the “General Cleaning” section.
Be sure when lighting the burner:
• Gas spreader pin is properly aligned with burner base
slot.
• Cap pin is properly aligned with gas spreader slot.
Burner ports
Check burner flames occasionally. A good flame is blue in
color, not yellow.
Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food,
cleaning agents or any other material to enter the burner
ports.
To Clean gas burner:
IMPORTANT
Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the
cooktop is cool.
1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean
according to cleaning section.
2. Remove the burner spreader. Clean the gas tube opening
and burner port according to cleaning section.
3. Clean the burner base with a damp cloth (keep the gas
injector area free of cleaning agents and any other
material from entering the injector orifice).
Burner base and injector
Gas must flow freely throughout the injector orifice to light
properly. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills,
food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the
injector orifice opening.
Protect it during cleaning.

4 - Cookware
IMPORTANT
Never leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking
area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides,
a well fitting lid and the material should be of medium-toheavy thickness. Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop.
Aluminium and copper may be used as a core or base in
cookware. However, when used as a base it can leave
permanent marks on the cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly
heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A
nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base
material.
For example, aluminium cookware with a non-stick finish
will take on the properties of aluminium.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
Cookware Characteristics
Aluminum: Heats quickly and evenly.
Suitable for all types of cooking. Medium or heavy thickness
is best for most cooking tasks.
WARNING
BALANCED PAN
Cast Iron: Heats slowly and evenly.
Good for browning and frying. Maintains heat for slow
cooking.
Ceramic or Ceramic glass: Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Heats slowly, but unevenly. Ideal results on low to medium
heat settings.
Copper: Heats very quickly and evenly.
Earthenware: Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Use on low heat settings.
Porcelain enamel on steel or cast Iron: See stainless steel or
cast iron.
Stainless steel: Heats quickly, but unevenly.
A core or base of aluminium or copper on stainless steel
provides even heating.
Match Pan Diameter to Flame Size
The flame should be the same size as the bottom of the pan
or smaller. Do not use small pans with high flame settings as
the flames can lick up the sides of the pan. Oversize pans
that span two burners are placed front to rear, not side to
side.
CONCAVE (HOLLOW)
CONVEX (ROUNDED)
FLAME TOO LARGE FOR
PAN SIZE
USE LIDS THAT FIT
PROPERLY
Use Balanced Pans
Pans must sit level on the cooktop grate without rocking.
Center pan over burner.
Use a Lid That Fits Properly
A well-fitting lid helps shorten the cooking time. Flat, heavy
bottom pans provide even heat and stability.
8
UNBALANCED PAN
The entire Cooktop can be safey cleaned by wiping with
a soapy sponge, then rinsing and drying. If stubborn soil
remains, follow the recommended cleaning methods below.
CAUTION
• Before cleaning, be certain the burners are turned off and
the grates are cool.
• Always use the mildest cleaner that will do the job.
• Use clean, soft cloths, sponges or paper towels.
• Rub stainless steel finishes in the direction of the grain.
Wipe area dry to avoid water marks.
• Do not clean removable cooktop parts in any selfcleaning
oven.
• After cleaning, place all parts in their proper positions
before using cooktop.
