All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

WARNING: If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or death.

- Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

- WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch.

• Do not use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's

instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

- Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier,

WARNING: Gas leaks cannot always be detected by smell.

Gas suppliers recommend that you use a gas detector approved by UL or CSA. For more information, contact your gas supplier.

If a gas leak is detected, follow the "What to do if you smell gas" instructions.

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, [] This cooktop is equipped with a three-prong grounding

injury to persons, or damage when using the cooktop, follow basic precautions, including the following:

[] WARNING: NEVER use this appliance as a space

heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in

carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the cooktop.

• CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above the cooktop - children climbing on the

cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.

• Proper Installation - The cooktop, when installed, must be

electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in

the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical

Code, ANSl/NFPA70 or the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1. Be sure the cooktop is properly installed and

grounded by a qualified technician.

plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do

not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

[] Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the

cooktop.

[] Injuries may result from the misuse of the cooktop such as

stepping, leaning, or sitting on the top surface.

[] Maintenance - Keep cooktop area clear and free from

combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.

[] Storage on the cooktop - Flammable materials should not

be stored on or near surface units.

[] Top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not

extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.

©OOKTOP USE

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.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned to HI and will automatically reignite if the flame is extinguished.

If a cross draft is present, the flame may be affected and some sparking may occur. This is normal.

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without cookware on the grate.

To Set:

1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to HI.

2. Turn knob to anywhere between HI and LO. Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

Burner installation:

1. Align the arrow on holder, then place aligning the notch

electrode.

2. Install burner cap onto the burner base by aligning the burner cap slots (4) with the burner base tabs (4).

IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.

Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition

and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the "General Cleaning" section.

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil

and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of gas

tube by always using a burner cap.

Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and shape as shown above. 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:

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and cooktop is cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust

removers.

1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean according to "General Cleaning" section.

2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.

Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check burner cap and base alignment. See "Burner installation" inthe

"Sealed Surface Burners" section. If the burner still does not light, do not service the burner yourself. Contact a trained

repair specialist.

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently

used areas to cool.

• Center the canner on the grate above the burner.

• Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.

• For more information, contact your local agricultural department. Companies that manufacture home canning

products can also offer assistance.

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a well-fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy

thickness. Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper

may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base they 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, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.

Cookware Characteristics

A. Incorrect B. Correct

The surface grates are positioned correctly when the thick ribs form a frame around the outer edge and the thin ribs are located

across the middle. All burners will be centered with the burner openings in the grates. See the following illustration.

NOTE: The end grates are different than the center grate. Do not use the end grate in the center grate position.
