Cooktop Controls
WARNING
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 (Ignite) and will automatically
reignite if the ame is extinguished.
NOTE: All igniters will spark when lighting; however, only the
selected burner will ignite.
If a cross draft is present, the ame may be affected and some
sparking may occur. This is normal.
Before setting a control knob, place lled cookware on the
grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without
cookware on the grate.
Power failure
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can
be lit manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise to the Ignite position. After burner lights, turn
knob to setting. The vent fan will not work.
NOTE: The downdraft vent will not operate during a power failure.
Flame Sensing Reignition
Your cooktop has sealed gas burners with Flame Sensing
Reignition. If any burner ame should go out, the system will
automatically spark to reignite the burner (all igniters will spark
when any ame is extinguished; however, only the selected
burner will reignite). If intermittent sparking occurs, increase ame
(rotate knob clockwise) until clicking (spark) sound ceases.
Smart Port Burner System
This cooktop is equipped with a Smart Port Burner System. The
Smart Port Burner System produces a small ame directly under
each grate nger and a larger ame between each grate nger. The
visual difference between the ports will be noticeable when the
burner is used or when adjustments are made to the ame length.
Sealed Surface Burners
A
B
Lighting the Burners
IMPORTANT: All burners will click/spark when a knob is pushed
in. A burner will light only if the knob is pushed in and then turned
counterclockwise to the Ignite position.
To light the burners:
1. Push in the knob.
2. Turn the knob counterclockwise to the Ignite position. Wait
until you see a ame.
3. Turn the knob to anywhere between H and L to the
desired setting.
Setting Recommended Use
H (High)
M (Medium)
L (Low)
REMEMBER: When cooktop is in use, the entire cooktop
area may become hot.
■ Start food cooking.
■ Bring liquid to a boil.
■ Hold a rapid boil.
■ Quickly brown or sear food.
■ Fry chicken.
■ Maintain a slow boil.
■ Fry or sauté foods.
■ Cook soups, sauces, and gravies.
■ Stew or steam food.
■ Simmer.
■ Keep food warm.
A. Cap
B. Spreader
C. Electrode
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the ow 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 ames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover
and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the
“General Cleaning” section.
NOTE: Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating
the burner size. Place the burner caps on the appropriate burner
bases.
AUX
Alignment: Be sure to align the gas tube opening in the burner
base with the orice holder on the cooktop and the igniter
electrode with the notch in the burner base.
NOTE: Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating
the burner size. Place the burner caps on the appropriate burner
bases.
Gas tube opening: Gas must ow 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 the
gas tube by always using a burner cap.

Burner ports: Check burner ames occasionally for proper size and
shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good ame 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
the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach,
or rust removers.
1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean
according to the “General Cleaning” section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do not
enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the
burner needs to be adjusted, contact a trained repair specialist.
Surface Grates
The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. In the proper
position, the grates should be ush and level. Improper installation of
the grates may result in chipping or scratching of the cooktop.
To ensure proper positioning, align bumpers on grate bottom with
the indentations in the cooktop. See cooktop illustrations in the
“Parts and Features” section for proper grate positioning.
Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually lose
their shine and/or discolor due to the high temperatures of the
gas ame.
Downdraft Ventilation System

4. Each round burner cap is marked with letters indicating the
burner size. Replace the burner cap, making sure the
alignment pins are properly aligned with the burner cap. Place
the burner caps on the appropriate burner bases.
A. Correct
B. Incorrect
IMPORTANT: The bottom of the small and medium caps are
different. Do not put the wrong size burner cap on the burner
base.
5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, verify the
burner cap placement and check cap and burner base
alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the
sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.
Melt Cap
For melting chocolate or butter or an even more delicate simmer, the
melt cap can be used in place of the standard burner cap. The melt
cap should only be used on the small burner (right rear). Remove the
small burner cap and replace it with the larger melt cap for delicate
simmering. For less delicate simmering, use the small cap.
C
A. Removable grease filter
B. Downdraft grate
C. Filter support tray (non-removable)
The built-in downdraft ventilation system removes cooking
vapors, odors, and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop.
IMPORTANT: For optimal performance, operate downdraft
ventilation system with the lter properly installed.
To avoid the buildup of grease, the lter should be cleaned often.
The lter should always be placed at an angle. As you face the
front of the cooktop, the top of the lter should rest against the
right side of the vent opening. The bottom of the lter should rest
against the left side of the vent chamber at the bottom.
If the lter is at against the fan wall, ventilation effectiveness
will be reduced.

Page 8
To Use:
Turn vent knob to desired speed: H, L, or to the midpoint between
H and L for Medium. Turn vent fan knob to OFF when nished
cooking or when the cooktop is not in use.
Home Canning
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.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element, or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a at bottom, straight sides, and a
well-tting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough nishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. 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 nish has
the same characteristics as its base material.
For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick nish will take
on the properties of aluminum.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
Cookware Characteristics
