Hi
Use
Hi
to bring liquid to a boil, or reach pressure in a
pressure cooker. Always reduce setting to a lower heat when
liquids begin to boil or foods begin to cook.
An intermediate flame size is used to continue cooking. Food
will not cook any faster when a higher flame setting is used
than needed to maintain a gentle boil. Water boils at the same
temperature whether boiling gently or vigorously.
Lo
Use
Lo
to simmer foods, keep foods warm and melt
chocolate or butter.
Some cooking may take place on the
Lo
setting if the pan is
covered. It is possible to reduce the heat by rotating the knob
toward
OFF
. Be sure flame is stable.

• If flame should go out during a
cooking operation, turn the burner
off. If a strong gas odor is detected,
open a window and wait five minutes
before relighting the burner.
• Be sure all surface controls are set to
the OFF position prior to supplying
gas to the cooktop.
•
NEVER
touch cooktop until it has
cooled. Expect some parts of the
cooktop, especially around the
burners, to become warm or hot
during cooking. Use potholders to
protect hands.

GNITION
Pilotless ignition eliminates the need for a
constant standing pilot light. Each surface
burner has a spark ignitor. When cleaning
around the surface burner use care. If
cleaning cloth should catch the ignitor, it
could damage it preventing ignition.
If the surface burner does not light, check
if ignitor is broken, soiled or wet. If clogged,
clean the small port beneath the ignitor
using straight pin.
