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.

Your range comes with electric ignitors. Electric ignitors automatically light the burners each time

you turn the control knobs to LIGHT.

• Place a filled pan on the burner grate before turning on the surface burner. Do not operate a

burner for extended periods of time without having cookware on the grate.

• Push in the control knob and turn it counter- clockwise to the

LIGHT position. The

clicking sound is the

ignitor sparking. Make

sure the burner has lit.

• To stop the clicking sound after the burner

lights, turn the control knob to the cook

setting you want. You can set the control

knob anywhere between HIGH and LOW. NOTE: All four electric ignitors will click at the same

time. However, the burner with the control knob

turned to LIGHT is the one that will ignite.

REMEMBER; When range is in use or during

the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area

may become hot.

Use the following chart as a guide.

SETTING RECOMMENDED USE LIGHT • To light the burner,

POWER TM Burner • To provide highest heat

(left front burner ) setting. HIGH • To start food cooking.

• To bring liquid to a boil.

Mid-range • To hold a boil. (between HIGH • To fry chicken or pancakes. and LOW) • To cook gravy, pudding, and

NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or cookware

which has boiled dry, on a hot surface burner. The cookware could overheat, causing damage to the

cookware or cooking product.

POWER Burner is an adjustable setting for the left front burner which provides an ultra-high heat setting.

It can be used to rapidly bring liquid to a boil and to

cook large quantities of food.

right rear burner. It allows more accurate simmer control at the lowest setting,

asywaysto

• To help shorten your cooking time, use the least amount of liquid possible.

• Preheat your pots and pans only when

recommended and for the shortest time possible.

• Start your food on a higher heat setting, then turn

the control to a lower setting to finish cooking.

USINGTHESURFA BURNEES

You can manually light surface burners. Hold a lit

match near a burner and turn the control knob to the LIGHT position. After the burner lights, turn the

control knob to the setting you want.

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.

To protect your range:

• For best results, usa a canner which can be

centered over the surface burner.

• Do not place your canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.

• Start with hot water. This reduces the time

the control is set on high. Reduce the heat

setting to the lowest position needed 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 Agriculture Canada or companies who manufacture

home canning products.

• 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.

• To avoid tipping, make sure pots and pans are centered on the grates.

The pan material affects how fast heat transfers from the surface cooking area through the pan material and how

evenly heat spreads over the 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.

from pies or casseroles place foil on the oven rack

below. Foil should be

turned up at edges and

be at least 1 inch (2.54 cm) larger than dish.

• Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or poultry to slow down surface browning for long

term roasting. Remove foil for the last 30 minutes.

• Use narrow strips of foil to shield piecrust edges if browning too quickly.
