After Lighting a Burner
■
Do not operate the burner for an extended period of
time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the
grate may discolor or chip without cookware to absorb
the heat.
■
Do not attempt to disassemble any burner while
another burner is on. An electric shock may result,
which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.
■
Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you
place your hand, a pot holder or cleaning materials on
them.
How to Light a Surface Burner
WARNING
Burners should be operated
only when covered by cookware. Burner flames
not covered by cookware present a risk of fire or
clothing ignition. Never let flames extend beyond the
sides of the cookware. Failure to comply may result
in serious injury.
Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and
fully assembled before attempting to operate any burner.
Select a burner and find its control knob. Push the knob
in and turn it to the
LITE
position.
You will hear a clicking noise—
the sound of the electric spark
igniting the burner. When one
burner is turned to
LITE
, all
burners will spark. Sparking will
continue as long as the knob
remains at
LITE
. Once gas is
ignited, turn the knob to adjust
the flame size.
Use of the Surface Burners
Your gas rangetop has sealed gas burners. They offer
convenience, cleanability and flexibility for a wide range
of cooking applications.
The
smallest
burner is the simmer burner. On some
models, the center burner of the triple flame burner
provides an additional simmer burner. A simmer burner
turned down to
LO
provides precise cooking performance
for foods such as delicate sauces that require low heat
for a long cooking time.
The
extra-large
burner is designed to quickly bring large
amounts of liquid to a boil. Some models have a
POWER
BOIL™
setting especially designed for use with cookware
with a diameter of 11 inches or larger.
How to Select Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When
rapid heating is desired, the flame size on a burner
should match the size of the cookware you are using.
Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not
heat faster and may be hazardous.
Push the control knob in and
turn it to the LITE position.
