Cooktop Controls

WARNING

COOKTOP USE

To Se t:

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.

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

SETTING RECOMMENDED 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.

IMPORTANT:

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. 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 (15,000 BTU [British Thermal Units]) provide the highest heat setting, and are ideal for cooking large quantities of food or liquid, using large pots and pans. The small burners (6,000 BTU) 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:

not ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter click, TURN THE BURNER OFF. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown 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 igniter 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 Cl ea n:

Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean according to “General Cleaning” section.

Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.

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.

Check burner flames occasionally for proper size

The Simmer Plate is made of aluminum to evenly spread the heat over the bottom of cookware. It can be used on the large surface burners.

Do not use the Simmer Plate above the medium setting. For best results, use the Simmer Plate with burner settings in the medium to low range on the cooktop when lower temperatures are needed for simmering, or for maintaining food at a low temperature over an extended period of time.

Channels on the bottom of the Simmer Plate have been designed so it fits properly and securely over the grate.

See “Assistance or Service” section to order extra Simmer Plates.

GRILLE

(on some models)

Grille Grate

Wave Tray

Wave Plate

Burner Assembly

The grille module consists of a cast-iron grate, a wave tray, a wave plate, a burner assembly, a front spill guard and a drip tray. It is used to grill foods. Refer to the “Grille Chart” for cook times and settings.

When using the grille, follow the guidelines below.

■

Do not leave the grille unattended while cooking.

■

Do not use aluminum foil, charcoal or wood chips.

■

Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to prevent curling.

■

Allow space between food on the grille. Crowding food will result in uneven cooking.

■

Use a metal spatula or tongs to turn food.

■

Steaks, chops and hamburgers should be turned only once to prevent loss of juices.

Front Spill Guard

Drip Tray

■

For even cooking, foods such as chicken quarters should be turned several times.

■

To check for doneness of meats and poultry, use an instant read thermometer or make a small cut in the center of the food. This will prevent loss of juices.

Before removing or replacing grille, make sure the control knobs are turned to OFF. Allow the grille to cool completely before handling.

To Re move:

Remove grille grate.

Remove wave tray and wave plate.

Remove burner assembly.

Remove front spill guard.

Remove drip tray.

Clean basin. See “General Cleaning” section.

To Replace:

Lift burner assembly out of basin and set aside.

GRIDDLE

(on some models)

Griddle

Drip Tray

The griddle is a built-in unit made of polished steel and comes with a drip tray. It is shipped with a protective coating covered with paper to prevent rust from occurring and must be removed before using. See the “First Time Use” section for more information about using the griddle.

■

Do not use cookware on the griddle.

■

Do not pour cold water on a hot griddle. This may warp the griddle, producing an uneven cooking surface.

■

The griddle must be level to operate properly.

■

The griddle should be preheated before cooking most foods. Refer to recipe or package instructions.

■

Remove and clean the grease tray and the area below after each use.

■

After each cleaning, wipe the griddle surface with a light film of cooking oil to protect the finish from rust and corrosion. Do not use corn oil.

■

Cooking on the griddle will change the color and appearance of the surface. It is normal for the griddle surface to become brown and darken with use.

Before cleaning the griddle, turn control knobs to OFF and allow griddle to cool.

First Time Use:

Remove the paper from the griddle.

Completely remove the protective coating from the surface with warm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse and dry.

Pour 1 tsp (5 mL) of vegetable oil onto the center of the griddle and spread evenly over the entire surface with a paper towel.

The griddle is ready for use. This is necessary to help prevent food from sticking.

To Us e:

Push in and turn knob to LITE/HI. The flame will ignite in 30 to 40 seconds. Allow griddle to preheat for 10 minutes. Place food on griddle.

If preheating is not required, start cooking food at desired temperature setting.
