TO PREVENT FIRE OR SMOKE DAMAGE
Be sure all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating it.
Keep area around appliance clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and materi­als.
If appliance is installed near a window, proper precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over burners.
CAUTION
NEVER leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air may ignite flammable items and may increase pressure in closed containers which may cause them to burst.
Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and may be highly flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics away from parts of the appliance that may become warm or hot. Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop as they may melt or soften if left too close to a lighted surface burner.
To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot surface burners, cabinet storage should not be provided directly above a unit. If storage is provided, it should be limited to items which are used infrequently and which are safely stored in an area subjected to heat from an appliance. Temperatures may be unsafe for some items, such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.
A faint gas odor may indicate a gas leak. If a gas odor is detected, shut off the gas supply to the cooktop. Call your installer or local gas company to have the possible leak checked. Never use a
match or other flame to locate a gas leak.
IN CASE OF FIRE
Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to avoid spreading the flame. Extinguish flame then turn on hood to remove smoke and odor.
Smother fire or flame in a pan with a
lid or cookie sheet. NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.
Do not use water on grease fires. Use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam­type extinguisher to smother fire or flame.
CHILD SAFETY
CAUTION
NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets above an appli­ance. Children climbing on the appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.
NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot.
NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.
Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils on it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children. Children should be taught that an appliance is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the unit.
ABOUT YOUR APPLIANCE
NEVER use appliance as a space heater
to heat or warm a room to prevent potential hazard to the user and damage to the appliance. Also, do not use the cooktop as a storage area for food or cooking utensils.
Potentially hot surfaces include cooktop, and areas facing the cooktop.
NEVER use aluminum foil to line burner spillover area. flow may result in unsafe operation.
Restriction of normal air
COOKING SAFETY
Always place a pan on a surface burner before turning it on. Be sure you know which knob controls which surface burner. Make sure the correct burner is turned on and that the burner has ignited. When cooking is completed, turn burner off before removing pan to prevent exposure to burner flame.
Always adjust surface burner flame so that it does not extend beyond the bottom edge of the pan. An excessive flame is hazardous, wastes energy and may damage the appliance, pan or cabinets above the appliance.
NEVER leave a surface cooking operation unattended especially when using a high heat setting or when deep fat frying. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy spills as soon as possible. Do not use high heat for extended cooking operations.
NEVER heat an unopened container on the surface burner. Pressure build-up may cause container to burst resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the appliance.
Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp pot­holders may cause burns from steam. Dishtowels or other substitutes should never be used as potholders because they can trail across hot surface burners and ignite or get caught on appliance parts.
Always let quantities of hot fat used for deep fat frying cool before attempting to move or handle.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the appliance, hood or vent fan.
2
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, CONT.
Clean hood frequently to prevent grease from accumulating on hood or filter. When flaming foods under the hood turn the fan on.
NEVER wear garments made of flammable material or loose fitting or long-sleeved apparel while cooking. Clothing may ignite or catch utensil handles.
UTENSIL SAFETY
Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and stay cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or loose-handled pans. Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles as they could be unstable and easily tip. Pans that are heavy to move when filled with food may also be hazardous.
Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.
To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, do not extend handles over adjacent surface burners. Always turn pan handles toward the side or back of the appliance, not out into the room where they are easily hit or reached by small children.
Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ ceramic, ceramic or glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop usage without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow manufacturer’s instructions when using glass.
This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. Do not use any devices or accessories that are not specifically recommended in this guide. Do not use eyelid covers for the surface units or stovetop grills. The use of devices or accessories that are not expressly recommended in this manual can create serious safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.
CLEANING SAFETY
Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning them. Do not touch the burner grates or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE AND WARNING
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that the burning of gas can result in low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, including benzene, formaldehyde and soot, due primarily to the incomplete combustion
of natural gas or liquid petroleum (LP) fuels. Properly adjusted burners will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can also be minimized by properly venting the burners to the outdoors.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS: Never keep
pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Appliances which require electrical power are equipped with a three-prong grounding plug which must be
plugged directly into a properly grounded three-hole 120 volt electrical outlet.
Always disconnect power to appliance before servicing.
The three-prong grounding plug offers protection against shock hazards. DO
NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD PLUG.
If an ungrounded, two-hole or other type electrical outlet is encountered, it
is the personal responsibility of the appliance owner to have the outlet replaced with a properly grounded and polarized three-hole electrical outlet.

SURFACE CONTROLS
CAUTION
• If flame should go out during a cooking operation, turn the burner off. If a strong gas odor is detected, open a window and wait five minutes before relighting the burner.
• Be sure all surface controls are set to the OFF position prior to supply­ing gas to the cooktop.
NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some parts of the cooktop, especially around the burners, to become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders to protect hands.
SURFACE CONTROL KNOBS
Use to turn on the surface burners. An infinite choice of heat settings is available from LO to HI. At the HI setting a detent or notch may be felt.
PILOTLESS IGNITION
Pilotless ignition eliminates the need for a constant standing pilot light. Each surface burner has a spark ignitor. Use care when cleaning around the surface burner.
If the surface burner does not light, check if ignitor is broken, soiled or wet.
SETTING THE CONTROLS
1. Place a pan on the burner grate. (To
preserve the grate finish, do not operate the burners without a pan on the grate to absorb the heat from

When lighting the surface burners,
be sure all of the controls are in the OFF position. Strike the match first and hold it in position before turning the knob.
• Do not leave the cooktop unat-
tended when cooking during a power failure.
4. Do not leave cooktop unattended.
SUGGESTED HEAT SETTINGS
The size and type of cookware will affect the heat setting. Settings Uses
HI Use HI to bring liquid to a boil, or reach pressure in a
pressure cooker. Always reduce setting to a lower heat when liquids begin to boil or foods begin to cook.
An intermediate flame size is used to continue cooking. Food will not cook any faster when a higher flame setting is used than needed to maintain a gentle boil. Water boils at the same temperature whether boiling gently or vigorously.
LO Use LO to simmer foods, keep foods warm and melt
chocolate or butter. Some cooking may take place on the LO setting if the pan
is covered. It is possible to reduce the heat by rotating the knob toward OFF. Be sure flame is stable.

2. Right rear burner (9,200 BTUs).
3. Left front burner (9,200 BTUs).
4. Right front burner (12,500 BTUs).
To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining:
Clean cooktop after each use.
Wipe acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has cooled as these spills may discolor the surface.
SEALED BURNERS
The sealed burners are secured to the cooktop and are not designed to be removed. Since the burners are sealed into the cooktop, boilovers or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop.
However, the burners should be cleaned after each use. The head portion of the burner has a removable cap that is easily removed for cleaning. (See page 6 for cleaning directions.)
Burner caps must be correctly placed on the burner base for proper operation of the burner.
HIGH PERFORMANCE BURNER*
There is one high speed burner on your cooktop, located in the right front position. This burner offers higher speed cooking that can be used to quickly bring water to a boil and for large­quantity cooking.
SIMMER BURNER*
This burner is located in the left rear position. The simmer burner offers a lower BTU flame for delicate sauces or melting chocolate.
* BTU ratings will vary when using LP gas.
BURNER GRATES
The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. Improper installation of the grates may result in chipping of the cooktop. To ensure proper positioning, align bumpers on grate bottom with the indentations in the cooktop.
Do not operate the burners without a pan on the grate. The grate’s porcelain finish may chip without a pan to absorb the heat from the burner flame.
Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually lose their shine and/ or discolor, due to the high tempera­tures of the gas flame.
NOTES:
A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light within a few seconds. If using natural gas, the flame will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.
If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas mixture may be incorrect. Contact a service technician to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by the warranty.)
With LP gas, some yellow tips on the flames are acceptable. This is normal and adjustment is not necessary.
With some types of gas, you may hear a “popping” sound when the surface burner is turned off. This is a normal operating sound of the burner.
To improve cooking efficiency and to prevent possible damage to the cooktop or pan, the flame must be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.
