IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read and Save These Instructions

WARNING:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS, IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

• Smother flames with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or the electric element. Be careful to prevent burns. If the flames do not go out immediately, evacuate and call the fire department.

• Never pick up a flaming pan — You may be burned.

• DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dish cloths or towels — a violent steam explosion will result.

• Use an extinguisher only if:

• You know you have a class ABC extinguisher

and you already know how to operate it.

• The fire is small and contained in the area where

it started.

• The fire department is being called.

• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

Child Safety

When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe operation of the appliance by qualified persons.

WARNING:

DO NOT store items of interest to children above or at the back of the rangetop. If children should climb onto the appliance to reach these items, they could be seriously injured.

DO NOT allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance. This can damage the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.

DO NOT allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult.

Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.

NEVER use any part of the rangetop for storage. Flammable materials can catch fire and plastic items may melt or ignite. DO NOT hang articles from any part of the appliance. Some fabrics are quite flammable and may catch on fire.

If the rangetop is near a window, be certain the curtains do not blow over or near the rangetop burners; they could catch on fire.

WARNING:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A GREASE FIRE:

• Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

• Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

• Clean hood filters frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

• Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the rangetop burner.

ALWAYS have a working smoke detector near the kitchen. In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop

and roll immediately to extinguish flames. Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available nearby,

highly visible, and easily accessible near the cooking appliance.

Smother flames from food fires, other than grease fires, with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.

Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system during a rangetop fire. However, DO NOT reach through fire to turn it off.

NEVER let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials come in contact with or too close to any burner or burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury.

Use only dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. DO NOT use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. DO NOT let potholders touch hot burners or burner grates.

English 3

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read and Save These Instructions

For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking.

DO NOT use aluminum foil to line any part of the rangetop. Use of a foil liner could result in a shock or fire hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped beneath it. This will upset the cooking performance and can damage the finish of the rangetop.

WARNING:

The appliance is for cooking. Based on safety considerations, never use the rangetop to warm or heat a room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the unit. Also, such use can damage the rangetop parts.

When using the rangetop: DO NOT TOUCH THE BURNER GRATES OR THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREA. Areas adjacent to the burners may become hot enough to cause burns.

Never leave the rangetop unattended when using high flame settings. Boil overs cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Also, if the burner flames and igniter are smothered with spillage, unburned gas will escape into the room. See page 1 regarding gas leaks.

Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suitable for cooking on the rangetop burners. This type of cookware may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or medium heat settings according to the utensil manufacturer’s directions.

DO NOT heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.

During cooking, set the burner control so that the flame heats only the bottom of the pan and does not extend beyond the bottom of the pan.

Use caution to insure that drafts like those from forced air vents or fans do not blow flammable material toward the flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the edges of the pot.

Always use pots and pans that have flat bottoms large enough to cover the burner. The use of undersized pots and pans could expose a portion of the flame and may

result in ignition of clothing.

WARNING:

Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the grate or with one that spans more than one burner, such as a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This can result in poor combustion that generates harmful byproducts.

To minimize the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials and unintentional spillage, position handles of pots and pans inward so they do not extend over adjacent work areas, cooking areas, or the edge of the rangetop.

DO NOT use pots or pans on the grill plate accessory (purchased separately). Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc., should never be used on the rangetop.

DO NOT use flammable cleaners to clean the rangetop. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement when

stirring or turning food. Remove the optional cutting board or griddle cover

accessory, which is stored on top of the griddle plate, before operating the griddle or any adjacent burners.

GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits collect. Clean after each use.

For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean the ports when there is a boil over or when the burner does not light even though the electronic igniters activate. See cleaning instructions for the “Brass Burner Base and Cast Iron Cap”.

Clean the rangetop with caution. Avoid steam burns; DO NOT use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the rangetop while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner manufacturer.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read and Save These Instructions

WARNING:

After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and using caution due to possible hot surfaces, clean around the burner and burner ports. After cleaning, check for proper operation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE:

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Be sure all rangetop controls are turned off and the rangetop is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the rangetop. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.

DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.

WARNING:

DO NOT block or obstruct the flow of air

through the ventilation openings. The vent is located at the back of the appliance. The vent needs to be unobstructed and open to provide necessary airflow that is important for proper performance.

Low Back Vent

DO NOT touch vent area while the appliance is on and for several minutes after the appliance is off. Some parts of the vent and surrounding areas become hot enough to cause burns. Allow appliance sufficient time to cool before touching or cleaning vent areas.

The burning of gas cooking fuel can generate some byproducts which are on the list. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:

1. Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.

2. Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.

DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors, flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance. It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in

injury.

WARNING:

This appliance should not be installed with a ventilation system that directs air in a downward direction toward the range. This type of ventilation system may cause ignition and combustion problems with the appliance resulting in personal injury, property damage, or unintended operation. Ventilating systems that direct the air upwards do not have any restriction.

DO NOT position plastic or other heatsensitive items on or near the vent. These items could melt or ignite.

Service should only be done by authorized technicians. Technicians must disconnect the power supply before servicing this unit.

To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and filters.

In case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or other spirits on the rangetop, follow manufacturer’s instructions. Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon). Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods.

Operation of the STAR Burners

• Press in on the knob and turn it counter-clockwise to the HI setting.

• The igniter for the selected burner sparks to ignite the burner.

• After flame ignition, the igniter stops sparking.

• Rotate the knob to any flame setting between HI and SIM.

• A blue light is positioned between the burner controls. The light turns on when the control knob is rotated to an active mode. It is off when the control knob is in the OFF position.

ExtraLow Range

BTU Output for Standard STAR

Burners

• HI is equivalent to 18,000 BTU / HR (15,000 BTU / HR using Propane).

• SIM is equivalent to 2,100 BTU / HR.

BTU Output for ExtraLow

STAR® Burners

• HI is equivalent to 18,000 BTU / HR (15,000 BTU / HR using Propane).

• SIM is equivalent to 3,000 BTU / HR.

•XLO

is equivalent to 375 BTU / HR when the control knob is adjusted to the lowest setting in the ExtraLow range.

ExtraLow® STAR

Burners

The controls for the two left burners, front and rear, have flame settings even lower than the standard SIM settings.

Figure 5 shows that the control knob has an additional range between the SIM and XLO settings. When the knob is set within this range, the flame cycles off and on. By varying the length of time the flame is off and on, the heat is reduced even further to cook delicate foods. For example, these very low settings are suitable for simmering and poaching, melting chocolate and butter, holding cooked foods at temperatures without scorching or burning, etc.

ExtraLow

Techniques

• The type and quantity of food affects which setting to use.

• The pan selected affects the setting. Its size, type, material, and whether a lid is used, all affect the consistency of the cooking temperature.

• To maintain a low or simmer heat, bring food to a rolling boil. Stir well, then cover the pan and lower the heat to a setting just below SIM.

• Check periodically to see if the control knob should be turned to another setting.

• If an over-size pan is used, the simmer action may occur mainly in the center of the pan. To equalize the temperature throughout the food, stir the food around the outer edges of the pan into the food in the center.

• It is normal to stir food occasionally while simmering. This is especially important when simmering for several hours, such as for a homemade spaghetti sauce or beans.

• When lowering the flame setting, adjust it in small steps.

• If the setting is too low to hold a simmer, bring the food back to a boil before re-setting to a higher heat.

• It is normal not to see simmer bubbles immediately after the food has been stirred.

• There may be bubbling when the flame cycles on and no bubbles when the flame is off. Even when the flame is off, there will be steam and a slight quiver on the liquid’s surface.

ExtraLow

XLO

• XLO, the very lowest setting, is achieved by cycling the flame on for approximately 7 seconds and off for 53 seconds of each minute.

• When the knob is rotated just beyond the SIM setting, the flame will cycle on for approximately 54 seconds and off for 6 seconds of each minute.

• To vary the amount of low heat, the control can be set anywhere within the SIM and XLO range marked on the knob.

IMPORTANT:

• For proper combustion, DO NOT use the rangetop without the burner grates in place.

• There is a slight sound associated with gas combustion and ignition. This is normal.

• On rangetops using propane (LP) gas, a slight “pop” sound may be heard from the STAR burner ports a few seconds after the burner has been turned off.

Checking Burner Cap Placement

Star

Igniter

Burner Cap

Burner Base

• Check each burner to make sure there is no gap between the burner cap and burner base. See Figure 6 and Figure 7 for examples of correct and incorrect placements of the burner cap.

• You may gently try to move the burner caps from side to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the burner bases. When properly placed, each burner cap will rest flat on top of its burner base, and completely cover the star-shape of the burner base when viewed from the top as shown in Figure 6.

Burner Cap Placement

The burner caps must be properly placed on the burner bases for the rangetop to function properly. If the burner cap is not properly placed, one or more of the following problems may occur:

• Burner flames are too high.

• Flames shoot out of burners.

• Burners do not ignite.

• Burner flames light unevenly.

• Burner emits gas odor.

WARNING:

To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates while hot. Turn the rangetop off and allow the burners to cool.

Primary Cone

Each STAR

burner has its own electronic igniter that sparks when the burner is turned on. Each burner should light in 4 seconds or less. If a burner does not light, check to see that the burner cap is positioned correctly on the base (see Figure 6 and Figure 7).

If a burner fails to ignite, refer to “Before Calling For Service” on page 21.

Automatic Re-Ignition

If any one or more burners blow out, the electronic igniter automatically activates to re-light the flame. DO NOT touch

the STAR burners when the igniters are active.

CAUTION:

DO NOT touch the STAR burners when the igniters are sparking. Ensure that the knobs are set to OFF and the burners and caps have cooled before touching.

Power Failure

Flame Height

• The correct flame height depends on 1) size and material of pan being used; 2) food being cooked; and

3) amount of liquid in the pan.

• Never extend the flame beyond the base of the pan.

• Use a low or medium flame for pan materials that conduct the heat slowly, such as porcelain coated steel or glass-ceramic.

Flame Description

Dark Blue

Secondary Cone

Light Blue

• In the event of a power failure, only the Standard

burners can be manually lit. It is necessary to light each one individually.

• If the rangetop is being used when the power failure occurs, turn all knobs to the OFF position.

• The standard STAR burners can be lit by holding a match at the ports and turning the control knob to the HI position. Wait until the flame is burning all around the burner cap before adjusting the flame to the desired level.

• DO NOT attempt to light the two left XLO

burners manually during a power failure. These burners are equipped with the ExtraLow® feature and cannot be lit manually.

• If an ExtraLow burner is on when a power failure occurs, it cannot be turned back on until the knob is first turned to the OFF position.

• The griddle or grill accessory cannot be used during a power failure.

• If you smell gas, refer to safety precautions listed on page 1.

Primary Cone

Figure 10: Flame Colors

• The burner flame color should be blue with no yellow on the tips. It is common to see orange in the flame color; this indicates the burning of airborne impurities and will disappear with use.

• With propane (LP) gas, slight yellow tips on the

primary

cone are normal.

• The flame should burn completely around the burner cap. If it doesn’t, check that the cap is positioned correctly on the base and that the ports are not blocked.

• The flame should be stable with no excessive noise or fluttering.

WARNING:

In the event of a power failure, turn all knobs to the OFF position. Only the standard burners can be lit manually.

Cookware Recommendations

WARNING:

To avoid risk of serious injury, damage to appliance or cookware, please observe the following:

• Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc. should never be used on the rangetop.

• Placement of large stock pots should be staggered when used on the rangetop.

• Select the base diameter to match the diameter of the flame. The diameter of the flame should be the same size as the pan base or slightly smaller. Oversize or undersize pans sacrifice cooking performance. A 5½” (140 mm) base size is generally the smallest

recommended.

• Do not let plastic, paper or cloth come in contact with a hot burner grate. They may melt or catch fire.

• Never let a pan boil dry. This can damage your pan and the cooking surface.

• Professional quality pans with metal handles are recommended because plastic handles can melt or blister if the flame extends up the side of the pan. Professional quality pans are found at restaurant supply stores and gourmet specialty shops. All cookware should have these characteristics: good heat conductivity, good balance, correctly sized base diameter, a heavy, flat base, and a proper fitting lid.

• For best cooking results, the flame should be contained under the bottom of the pan.

Figure 11: Base Diameter

• Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the grate or with one that spans more than one burner, such as a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This can result in poor combustion that generates harmful by-products.

• Balance is important for stability and even cooking. The handle must not be heavier than the pan and tilt it unevenly. A pan must sit level on the grate without

rocking or wobbling.

Figure 13: Flat Base Pan

• Aluminum and copper are pan materials that conduct the heat quickly and evenly. These metals are sometimes attached to the base or in the core between stainless steel.

• A heavy, flat base is more apt to remain flat when heated. Pan bases that are warped, dented, ridged or too lightweight will heat unevenly. Heat and cool pans gradually to avoid sudden temperature changes which tend to distort cookware. Do not add cold water to a hot pan.

• A properly fitting lid will shorten cooking time and make it possible to use lower heat settings.

Figure 12: Balanced Pan

• Food packaged in aluminum foil should not be placed directly on the burner grate. Aluminum foil can melt during cooking.

English 12

Figure 14: Covered Pan

Specialty Cookware

Figure 15: Flat-bottom Wok Pan

Canning Tips:

• A flat base pan is preferred to one with a concave, convex or rippled base.

• When using two canners at the same time, use staggered burners. Do not block air to the burners. A flame needs the right amount of air for complete combustion.

• Use a cover on a canner when bringing the contents to a boil.

• Once the contents have reached a boil on HI, use the lowest flame possible to maintain the boil or pressure.

• Canning produces a large amount of steam. Take precautions to prevent burns.

Suggestions for Using the Recommendations

Use the chart starting on page 14 as a guide. The settings you use will vary depending on the pans selected and the starting temperature of the food.

Figure 16: Round-Bottom Wok in Support Ring

Woks — Either flat-based or round-bottom woks with the

accessory ring can be used on all models. Round bottom woks must be used with a support ring. The Wok pan and the porcelain-coated cast iron wok support ring must be purchased separately (PWOKRINGHC).

Canners and Stock Pots — Select one with a base diameter that extends no more than 2” (51 mm) beyond the grate.

Standard Size Water Bath Canner — 21 to 22 quarts (19.95 to 20.9 liters), with an 11” to 12” base (279–305 mm) and a 9” to 11” depth (229–279 mm).

Figure 17: Griddle Control Knob

Preparing the Griddle

If the rangetop is equipped with an electric griddle, check the griddle frame adjustment by pouring two tablespoons of water on the back of the griddle plate. The water should slowly roll into the grease tray. If not, adjust the two screws under the back of the frame. Start with one half turn counterclockwise (CCW) of the screws. Further adjustment should be made by one-quarter turn until water slowly flows into the grease tray (Figure 18).

CAUTION:

The griddle element is hot after use. Allow sufficient time for griddle components to cool before cleaning.

WARNING:

To avoid risk of injury, NEVER operate griddle without the griddle plate installed. NEVER use griddle in a manner that is not prescribed by the Use and Care Guide.

Move griddle plate to the side and turn leveling screws

Figure 18: Griddle Plate Leveling Screws

The griddle plate should be washed with warm soapy water then rinsed with clear water prior to use. The griddle may be used without any butter, margarine or oil. However, a very small amount may be used to flavor foods.

Any utensil may be used on the griddle surface. Care should be taken that the surface is not gouged when utensils are used. DO NOT cut directly on the griddle plate.

English 16

NOTICE:

Grease Tray

Griddle/Grill performance may vary if there is an excessive amount of airflow in the vicinity of the appliance. The excessive airflow could be from an air-conditioning register or ceiling fan blowing at the rangetop. This could create longer than normal heat-up time, or it could cause the Griddle/Grill temperature to be higher or lower than the knob setting.

NOTE:

Having a properly installed ventilation hood is not considered a source of excessive airflow.

Maintenance and Care

Do-It-Yourself Maintenance

Power Failure

In the event of a power failure, only the standard burners can be lit manually. It is necessary to light each standard burner individually.

If the cooktop is being used when the power failure occurs turn all of the burner control knobs to the OFF position. The standard burners can be lit by holding a match at the ports and turning the control knob to the HI position. Wait until the flame is burning all the way around the burner cap before adjusting the flame to the desired height.

The two ExtraLow® burners on the left side cannot be used during a power failure. Be sure to turn them OFF if a power failure occurs because they will not turn back on until the control knobs are turned OFF and then turned back on again. See “WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS” on page 1.

If you have low gas pressure, contact your gas company.

Intermittent or Constant Igniter Sparking

Intermittent or constant sparking of the sealed gas surface burners can result from a number of preventable conditions. Eliminate these conditions as indicated in the following chart.

SYMPTOM CAUSE REMEDY

Intermittent sparking • Ceramic igniter is wet or dirty.

•STAR

burner ports are clogged.

• Carefully dry or clean igniter.

Rangetop Cleaning Tips

• Use the mildest cleaning procedure that will do the job efficiently and effectively. Some cleaners of the same type are harsher than others. Try on a small inconspicuous area first.

• The porcelain enamel finish is acid resistant, but not acid proof. Acidic foods, such as citrus juices, tomatoes, rhubarb, vinegar, alcohol or milk, should be wiped up and not allowed to bake onto the porcelain during the next use.

• Always rub metal finishes in the direction of the polish lines for maximum effectiveness and to avoid marring the surface.

• Use only clean soft cloths, sponges, paper towels, fibrous brushes, plastic, non-metal or steel wool soap pads for cleaning and scouring, as recommended in the chart.

• Most exterior parts of this appliance can be cleaned with hot sudsy water (except the various items specifically identified otherwise). When rinsing is required, rinse thoroughly.

• Always wipe dry immediately to avoid water marks.
