Gas drop in cooktops (if so equipped)
Drop in cooktops add compact high efficiency cooking performance to your recreation
vehicle. Depending on your model, it may be equipped with either a 2 burner or 3 burner
cooktop.
The 2 burner match-light cooktop has two 6500 BTU/H burners with control panel. The 3
burner piezo-igniter cooktop has one front 9000 BTU/H burner and two rear 5200 BTU/H
burners. The 3 burner cooktop is also equipped with a control panel.
For detailed operating and cleaning information, refer to manufacturer’s owner’s manual.
Do not use aluminum foil on the electric range cooktop, as this material will
damage the cooktop surface if it melts. Do not use aluminum foil under any
circumstances on the electric range cooktop.

To prevent damage, always use the manufacturer’s recommended size flat bottom pan(s).
Generally, the pan should be large enough to cover the burner, but not be more than one inch
larger than the burner grate.
Do not use a broiler pan, griddle or any other large utensil that covers more than one burner
at a time. This will create excessive heat that may cause melting, sooting or discoloration.
The use of undersized pans could expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact
and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of pans to burner will improve
efficiency.
If using glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or other glazed utensils (or
cookware) verify it is safe for use on the top burners. Only certain types of
utensils (or cookware) are suitable for surface or top burner use.

During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable material
come in contact with the top burners (or heating elements), burner grates or
other areas near the top burners or oven until they have had sufficient time to
cool. These areas can get hot enough to cause burns.

Never leave cooking food unattended. Turn pan handles inward, but not over
the tops of the other range burners. Ensure that pans used are large enough to
contain the food and avoid boil-overs. Heavy splattering or spills left on the
cooktop can ignite and cause burns.
