Using the surface burners

Using and Caring for Your

Cooktop

Your cooktop has sealed gas burners. The sealed burners spread the heat evenly across the bottom of the cookware and provide infinite heat control.

IMPORTANT: Your cooktop is factory-set for use with Natural Gas. If you wish to use L.P. gas, an L.P. Gas Conversion Kit is included with your new range. See the instructions included with the L.P. conversion kit for details on making this conversion.

• Position grate legs into the leg locators on front and back of cooktop.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop

wWARNING

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.

Using the surface burners:

Control knobs

1. Grasp the control knob.

2. Push in and turn to LITE. The electric

spark ignitor will ignite the gas flowing into the burner. When you hear a clicking sound, you know that the ignitors are working. Gas is flowing as long as knob is not set at OFF.

3. When the burner is lit, turn the control knob to the desired flame setting. (See the guide under “Burner heat settings” later in this section.) You can turn the knobs to any of the marked settings. The ignitor will turn off and the clicking will stop when the knob is moved from LITE.

NOTES:

• The ignitors may click a number of times

before burner lights. This is normal.

• All four burner ignitors will spark

regardless of which burner you are using.

• Visually check that the burner has lit. If the

burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If you do not hear the ignitor click, TURN THE BURNER OFF. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on valve shaft. If the spark

ignitor still fails to operate, call your nearest designated service outlet.

Proper grounding and polarity are necessary for correct operation of the electric ignition system. If the wall receptacle does not provide correct polarity, the ignitor will become grounded and click every once in a while, even after the burner has ignited. A qualified electrician should check the wall receptacle to see if it is wired with correct polarity.

Burner heat settings

Use correct burner heat settings (see chart later in this section). If the heat setting is too high, it will affect cooking results.

Until you get used to the settings, use the following as a guide.

RECOMMENDED USE

• To light the burner.

• To start food cooking.

• To bring liquid to a boil.

• To hold a rapid boil.

• To quickly brown or sear

meat.

• To maintain a slow boil.

• To fry poultry or meat.

• To cook pudding, sauce

or gravy.

• To stew or steam food.

• To simmer food.

• To keep food warm.

• To melt chocolate or butter.

SETTING LITE HI

MED to LO

(with simmer plate)

REMEMBER: When range is in use or during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop

In case of a prolonged power failure

Surface burners can be manually lighted.

1. Hold a lit striker near a burner and turn the control knob to the HI position.

2. After the burner lights, turn the control knob to the desired setting.

NOTE: Do not leave a burner on without any cookware on the grate. The grate finish can be damaged.

Simmer Plate

†

One Simmer Plate has been provided with

your cooktop. It has been designed to be used with burner settings in the medium to low range on your cooktop when lower tempera-

tures are required for simmering or for maintaining food at a low temperature over an extended period of time. The Simmer Plate is made of aluminum to evenly spread the heat over the bottom of cookware.

Channels on the bottom of the Simmer Plate

(see diagram at

left) have been

designed so it fits

properly and

securely over the

grate.

†

To order additional Simmer Plates (Part No.

4455109), call 1-800-422-1230 (in U.S.A.) or 1-800-461-5681 (in Canada). You will hear a

recording. Follow the steps to place order.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop

Home canning information

The large diameter of most water-bath or pressure canners combined with high heat settings for long periods of time can cause damage to the cooktop.

The pan material affects how fast heat transfers from the surface cooking area through the p an material and how evenly heat spr eads over t he pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the best cooking results.

Aluminum

• Heats quickly and evenly.

• Use for all types of cooking.

• Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking.

• Used as a core or base in cookware to provide even heating.

Cast iron

• Heats slowly and evenly.

• Good for browning and frying.

• Maintains heat for slow cooking.

• Can be coated with porcelain enamel.

Ceramic or ceramic glass

• Heats s low ly a nd uneve nly.

• Use on low to medium settings.

• Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Copper

• Heats very quickly and evenly.

• Used as a core or base in cookware to provide even heating.

Earthenware

• Can be used for cooktop cooking if recommended by the manufacturer.

• Use on low settings.

Porcelain enamel-on-steel or enamel-on-cast iron

• See cast iron and stainless steel.

Stainless steel

• Heats q uick ly but une ve nly.

• A core or base of aluminum or copper on the cookware provides even heating.

• Can be coated with porcelain enamel.

Characteristics of cookware materials

To protect your range:

• Center the canner over the surface burner.

Do not extend more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) outside the burner area.

• Do not place your canner on two surface

burners at the same time.

• Start with hot water, cover with a lid and

bring to a boil; then reduce heat to maintain a boil or required pressure levels in a pressure canner.

•

Refer to your canner manual for specific instructions.

•

For up-to-date information on canning, contact your local U.S. Government Agricultural Department Extension Office or companies who manufacture home canning products. In Canada, contact Agriculture Canada.

Using the right cookware makes a big difference

• The pan should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a well-fitting lid.

• Choose medium to heavy gauge (thickness) cookware.

• The pan material (metal or glass) affects how quickly and evenly the pan heats.

• When using glass or ceramic cookware, check to make sure it is suitable for use on surface burners.

Cookware tips

Caring for your cooktop

Your cooktop is designed for ease of care. You can do most cleaning with items found around the home. Cleaning your cooktop whenever spills or soiling occur will help to keep it looking and operating like new.

NOTES:

• Before cleaning make sure all controls are off and the cooktop is cool.

• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grates edges.

Cleaning the surface burners

• You should routinely remove and clean the burner cap. Always clean the burner cap after a spill-over. Keeping the burner cap clean prevents poor ignition and an uneven flame.

• For the proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner, do not allow spills, food,

cleaning agents, or any other material to enter the gas tube opening or burner ports.

• Gas must flow freely through the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of any soil and protect it from boilovers or spillovers. Always keep the burner cap in place whenever a surface burner is in use.

• Let the cooktop cool before cleaning.

• Do not use oven cleaners, bleach, or rust

removers.

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

• Occasionally check the burner flames for

proper size and shape as shown. A good flame is blue in color not yellow. If the flames are not burning at all ports, you may need to clean the burner ports.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop

To clean the burners:

1. Remove the burner cap from the burner

base.

2. Clean the burner cap with warm, soapy

water and a sponge. You can also clean it with a mildly abrasive scrubbing pad or cleanser. Do not clean the burner cap in a dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.

3. If the gas tube opening has become

soiled or clogged, use a damp cloth to clean the area.

4. If the burner ports are clogged, clean

them with a straight pin. Do not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the

burner needs to be adjusted, call a qualified technician for service.

5. After cleaning the gas tube opening and

ports, replace the burner cap. To replace the burner cap, make sure the alignment pins on the cap are properly aligned with the burner base.

6. Turn on the burner to see if it will light. If

the burner does not light after you have cleaned it, recheck cap alignment or contact a designated service technician. Do not service the sealed burner yourself.

To adjust the flame height follow the instructions below:

1. Turn the control knob to “LO.”

2. Remove the control knob. (If there is not

an adjustment screw underneath the knob the flame height is not adjustable.)

3. Hold the valve stem with a pair of pliers.

The screw is located in the center of the valve stem. Use a small flat head screwdriver to turn the screw until the flame is the proper size.

4. Replace the control knob.

5. Test the flame by turning the control from

“LO” to “HI,” checking the flame at each setting.

Using and Caring for Your Oven

Place the oven racks where you need them before turning on the oven.

• To move a rack, pull it out to the stop

position, raise the front edge and lift it out.

• Be sure the rack(s) is level.

• Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect

your hands if rack(s) must be moved while the oven is hot.

• For best performance, cook on one rack.

Place the rack so the top of the food will be centered in the oven.

• To use two racks during Convection Bake, place the racks on the 2nd and 4th

rack guides.

• When baking on two or three racks, use the CONVECT BAKE setting for more even results. (You can also use only one rack when convection baking.)

• To use three racks during convection baking, place one rack in position 5 (the highest position), another rack in position

1 (the closest to the oven bottom), and the third rack in position 3. This allows all three racks to be an equal distance apart for better baking.

• For best results allow 2 inches (5 cm) of space around each pan and between pans and oven walls. Hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This results in better baking.

Convection roasting tips

• Use the convection roasting rack on the

broiler pan and grid included with your oven. The convection roasting rack rests on the broiler pan and grid. The long side of the rack should be parallel with the oven door for best heat distribution and airflow.

• Spatter can be reduced by lining the

bottom of the roasting pan with lightly crushed aluminum foil.

• Use an accurate meat thermometer to

determine when meat has reached desired degree of doneness. Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion of the meat. For an accurate reading, the tip of the thermometer should not touch fat, bone, or gristle.

• After reading the thermometer once,

push it further into the meat 1⁄2 inch (1.7 cm) or more and read again. If the temperature drops, return the meat to the oven for more cooking.

• Check pork and poultry with a ther-

mometer in 2 to 3 places to ensure adequate doneness. Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion and ends of pork. Check the inner thighs and breasts of poultry.

• Poultry and roasts will be easier to

carve if loosely covered with foil and

allowed to stand 10 to 15 minutes after removal from the oven.

5. Rotate SET to desired convection broil level.

Your options are: LO (235°F [113°C]), br 2 (300°F [149°C]), br 3 (370°F [187°C]), br 4 (435°F [224°C]), and HI (500°F [260°C]).

6. Press ENTER to start.

7. At the end of Convection Broiling, turn SELECTOR to RESET.

Broiling guidelines

• Use only the broiler pan and grid

provided. They are designed to drain extra

juices from the cooking surface. This drainage helps prevent spatter and smoke.

• To make sure the juices drain well, do

not cover the grid with foil.

• Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit

the fat on the edges to prevent curling.

• Use tongs to turn meat to avoid losing juices.

• Pull out oven rack to stop position before

turning or removing food.

• After broiling, remove the pan from the

oven when removing the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.

• For easier cleaning, line the bottom of the

pan with aluminum foil. Clean the pan and grid as soon as possible after each use.

Recommended rack positions are numbered

from the bottom (1) to the top (5).

For best results, place food 3 inches (7.5 cm) or more from the broil element.

Convection Broil

Convection broiling is actually hightemperature convection roasting. Use this setting when broiling thick cuts of meat. Results are similar to those you get when using a rotisserie.

1. Position rack.

See the rack placement chart in the “Broiling guidelines” section for recommended rack positions.

2. Put food in oven.

Place food on grid in broiler pan and place in center of the oven rack. Turn the pan so the long side is parallel to the oven door for the most even heat and the best airflow.

NOTE: If you want to change the convection broiling temperature after broiling has begun, repeat Steps 3, 4, and 5.

3. Close door.

NOTE: Do not try to convection broil with

the door open. The fan and elements will not operate.

4. Turn SELECTOR to CONVECT BROIL.

The display will read “HI”.
