Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
How to Light a Burner
Make sure the control lock knob is in the
UNLOCKED
position and all 3 grates are
installed .
Your cooktop burners are lit by electric ignition,
eliminating the need for standing pilot lights
with constantly burning flames .
Push the control knob down and turn it to the
LITE
position . After the burner ignites, turn
the knob to adjust the flame size . To turn the
burner off, turn the knob clockwise as far as it
will go, to the
OFF
position .
■
Check to be sure the burner you turn on is
the one you want to use .
■
Be sure you turn the control knob to
OFF
when you finish cooking .
■
In case of a power failure, you can light the
burners with a match . Hold a lit match to
the burner; then push in and turn the control
knob to the LITE position . Use extreme
caution when lighting burners this way .
Burners in use when an electrical power
failure occurs will continue to operate
normally .
■
Do not operate the burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the
grate . The finish on the grate may chip
without cookware to absorb the heat .
■
Be sure the burners and grates are cool
before you place your hand, a pot holder,
cleaning cloths or other materials on them .
Control Lock
To lock the cooktop and prevent unwanted use,
turn the control lock knob counterclockwise to
LOCKED
. An indicator light will glow to show
that the cooktop is locked .
When locked, the cooktop will sound if any
control knob is set to any position other than
OFF
.
To unlock, turn the control lock knob to
UNLOCKED
.
Sealed Gas Burners
The smallest burner in the right rear (on all
models) and the left rear burner (on some
models) are the simmer burners . These burners
can be turned down to
LO
for a very low setting .
They provide precise cooking performance for
delicate foods such as sauces or foods that
require low heat for a long cooking time .
The medium (left and right front or left front
and rear) and the large (right front) burners (on
some models) are the general-purpose burners
that can be turned down from
HI
to
LO
to suit a
wide range of cooking needs .
PowerBoil
™
Burner
The extra large center burner has special
PowerBoil
™
settings . This feature should only be
used with cookware 12
″
or larger in diameter,
and flames should never be allowed to extend
up the sides of the cookware . This feature is
designed to quickly bring large amounts of
liquid in pots 12
″
or larger in diameter to a boil .
The tri-ring burner (on some models) can also
be turned down to
LO
for a very low simmer
setting .
