GAS COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(For Models with 4 Sealed Burners, Tempered Glass Cooktops or Porcelain Enamel Cooktops)
Check Operation
Refer to the Owner's Guide packaged with the cooktop
for operating instructions and for care and cleaning of
your cooktop.
Do not touch the burners. They may be
hot enough to cause burns.
1. Install Burner Caps
This cooktop is equipped with sealed burners as
shown (see Figure 11).
A. Unpack burner caps and trim rings.
B. Place trim rings over each burner.
C. Make sure the burner is properly aligned and
leveled. Find the recessed locating tabs under
each burner cap, and place over the white
electrode in the burner base as illustrated.
NOTE:
There are no burner adjustments necessary on
this cooktop.
Use caution when replacing the burner cap
so the electrode is not damaged.
2. Turn on Electrical Power and Open Main
Shutoff Gas Valve
3. Check the Igniters
Operation of electric igniters should be checked
after cooktop and supply line connectors have been
carefully checked for leaks and range has been
connected to electric power. To check for proper
lighting:
Figure 11
A. Push in and turn a surface burner knob to the
LITE position. You will hear the igniter sparking.
B. The surface burner should light when gas is
available to the top burner. Each burner should
light within four (4) seconds in normal operation
after air has been purged from supply lines.
Visually check that burner has lit.
C. Once the burner lights, the control knob should
be rotated out of the LITE position.
There are separate ignition devices for each burner.
Try each knob separately until all burner valves have
been checked.
4. Adjust the "LO" or "SIMMER" Setting of Surface
Burner Valves (see Figure 12)
Push in and turn each control knob to the "LO" (or
"SIMMER") setting. The "LO" setting of each
burner has been set at the factory to the lowest
setting available to provide reliable reignition of the
burner. If it does not stay lit on the "LO" setting,
check the setting as follows.
A. Allow cooktop to cool to room temperature.
B. Light all burners by turning each control knob to
LITE until burners ignite, and then set them at
"HI".
C. Quickly turn the knob to the LOWEST POSITION.
D. If burner goes out, readjust valve as follows:
Remove the surface burner control knob, insert a
thin-bladed screw driver into the hollow valve
stem and engage the slotted screw inside. Flame
size can be increased or decreased with the turn
of the screw. Adjust flame until you can quickly
turn knob from HI to LOWEST POSITION without
extinguishing the flame. Flame should be as
small as possible without going out.
E.
If you need to adjust another burner, repeat the
steps from A to D above until all burners operate
properly.
