COOKTOP USE

Cooktop Controls

IMPORTANT: Your cooktop is factory-set for use with Natural

gas. If you wish to use LP gas, an LP Gas Conversion Kit is

included with your new cooktop. See the instructions included

with the LP Gas Conversion Kit for details on making this

conversion.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when

control knobs are turned to Lite.

The large burners (17,000 Btu/h [British Thermal Units] and

12,500 Btu/h) provide the highest heat setting, and are ideal for

cooking large quantities of food or liquid, using large pots and

pans. The small burners (9,100 Btu/h and 6,000 Btu/h) allow

more accurate simmer control at the lowest setting, and are ideal

for cooking smaller quantities of food, using smaller pots and

pans.

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate.

Do not operate a burner while using empty cookware or without

any cookware on the grate.

NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does

not ignite, listen for a clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter

click, turn off the burner. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or

blown household fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the

valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained

repair specialist.

Proper grounding and polarity are necessary for correct operation

of the electric ignition system. If the wall receptacle does not

provide correct polarity, the igniters will become grounded and

occasionally click, even after the burner has ignited. Contact a

trained repair specialist to check the wall receptacle to see

whether it is wired with the correct polarity.

To S et:

1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LITE.

All surface burners will click. Only the burner with the control

knob turned to Lite will produce a flame.

2. Turn knob to anywhere between HI and LO. Use the following

chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

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 LITE. After burner lights, turn knob to

setting. Do not use a grill or griddle accessory during a power

failure, as the vent fan will not operate.

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.

SETTING RECOMMENDED USE

Lite

■ Light the burner.

■ Start food cooking.

■ Bring liquid to a boil.

Medium High

Between Med & Hi

Med

Medium

■ Fry or sauté foods.

■ Maintain a slow boil.

■ Cook soups, sauces and gravies.

Medium Low

Between Med & Lo

■ Stew or steam foods.

■ Simmer.

■ Keep food warm.

REMEMBER: When cooktop is in use, the entire cooktop

area may become hot.

Sealed Surface Burners

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 the

gas tube opening 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 C lean:

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and

the 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.

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.

4. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins on

the cap are properly aligned with the burner base.

5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap

alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the

sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

Surface Grates

The grates located on the left and right side of the cooktop

contain grooves. These grooves must always face inward toward

the control knob panel to hold the grates in place. On some

models, the middle grate must be placed in position first,

followed by the left and right grates.
