NOTES:

•
A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light within a few seconds. If
using natural gas, the flame will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.
If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas mixture may be incorrect.
Contact a service technician to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by the
warranty.)
With LP gas, some yellow tips on the flames are acceptable. This is normal and
adjustment is not necessary.
•
With some types of gas, you may hear a “popping” sound when the surface
burner is turned off. This is a normal operating sound of the burner.
•
To improve cooking efficiency and to prevent possible damage to the cooktop
or pan, the flame must be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of
the pan.
To prevent the cooktop from
discoloring or staining:
•
Clean cooktop after each use.
•
Wipe acidic or sugary spills as
soon as the cooktop has cooled
as these spills may discolor the
surface.

The grates must be properly positioned
before cooking. Improper installation of
the grates may result in chipping of the
cooktop. To ensure proper positioning,
align bumpers on grate bottom with the
indentations in the cooktop.
Do not operate the burners without
a pan on the grate. The grate’s
porcelain finish may chip without a
pan to absorb the heat from the
burner flame.
Although the burner grates are durable,
they will gradually lose their shine and/
or discolor, due to the high tempera-
tures of the gas flame.

The sealed burners are secured to the
cooktop and are not designed to be
removed. Since the burners are sealed
into the cooktop, boilovers or spills will
not seep underneath the cooktop.
However, the burners should be cleaned
after each use. The head portion of the
burner has a removable cap that is
easily removed for cleaning. (See page 6
for cleaning directions.)
Burner caps must be correctly placed
on the burner base for proper operation
of the burner.
