■
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

grounding prong from this plug.
Be sure the
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■ Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing
the cooktop.
■ Never Use the Cooktop for Warming or Heating the
Room.
■ 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

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list
of substances known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn of potential exposure to such substances.
WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or
other reproductive harm.
This appliance can cause low-level exposure to some of the substances listed, including benzene, formaldehyde,
carbon monoxide, toluene, and soot.
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 cooktop. 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 TripleTier™ Flame Burner (18,000 BTU [British Thermal
Units]) provides the highest heat setting, and is ideal for cooking
large quantities of food or liquid, using large pots and pans.
The medium burners (15,000 BTU) provide the high heat setting,
and are ideal for cooking large quantities of food or liquid, using
larger 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 a 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 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.

make sure all controls are off and the oven and cooktop are cool.
Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust removers.
Burner Cap Alignment
Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface
burner. A clean burner cap will help prevent 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.

Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches.
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
■
Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking
area or element. Canners should not extend more than 1 in.
(2.5 cm) outside the cooking area.
■
Do not place canner on two surface cooking areas, elements
or surface burners at the same time.
■
For more information, contact your local U.S. Government
Agricultural Department Extension Office. In Canada, contact
Agriculture Canada. Companies that manufacture home
canning products can also offer assistance.
Cookware
IMPORTANT:
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, 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.
Never leave empty cookware on a hot surface
