If the flame goes out prematurely while trying to ignite, turn the Burner Control Knob
clockwise to the off position. Wait at least 5 minutes for any gas to dissipate before
attempting to reignite. You may have to keep the Burner Control Knob pressed a little
longer.
•
The Range has an
Auto-Reignition feature
to accommodate for situations where
the flame goes out due to external causes such as a draft or door slamming. The
burners will automatically spark to reignite the flame, preventing gas leaking inadver-
tently.
IMPORTANT:
The appliance can be damaged if you:
- turn the knob without pushing in
- turn clockwise to turn on
- turn counterclockwise to turn off
TURNING ON IN THE EVENT OF A POWER FAILURE
If there is a power loss, you can ignite the flame manually, e.g., with a utility lighter.
1. Push in the Burner Control Knob and turn counterclockwise to the ‘HI’ position.
2. Keep the Knob pushed in and ignite the escaping gas-air mixture with a utility
lighter (that is a minimum 6” in length).
3. When lit, keep pushed in and turn the knob to the desired setting.
IMPORTANT: If the flame is blown out during a power failure, turn the knob immedi-
ately to OFF, as the burner will not automatically relight and gas may escape.

FLAME REGULATION
Once the flame is ignited, rotate the Burner Control Knob to regulate the flame.
•
To
reduce
the flames from a high to a low setting, push the corresponding knob in
and turn
counterclockwise.
•
To
increase
the flames from a low to a high setting, push in and turn the Burner
Control Knob
clockwise.
•
A smaller flame will give the best simmer results. Small flames offer precise cook-
ing performance for delicate foods, keeping food warm, melting chocolate or butter,
and for cooking that needs to cook over low heat for a long time.
