Setting surface burners
Fig. 1
Do not place flammable items
such as
plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use.
These items
could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons
could catch fire if placed too close to the range cooktop.
Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY
material that can melt on the range cooktop.
If these
items melt they may permanently damage the cooktop
surface.
Your gas appliance may be equipped with different sized
surface burners. The ability to heat food quicker and in
larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. It
is important to select cookware that is suitable for the
amount and type of food being prepared.
The smaller simmer burner (on some models) is best
suited for simmering delicate sauces, etc.
The standard size burners may be used for most surface
cooking needs. Some models are equipped with a center
burner.
The larger power burners (on some models) or Ultra
Power burner (on some models) are recommended for
bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature and
when preparing larger quantities of food.
To set surface burners:
1. Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner
grate. Be sure the cooking utensil sets stable on the
burner grate.
2. Push the desired surface control knob in and turn
counterclockwise out of the
OFF
position (Fig. 1).
3. Release the surface control knob and rotate to the
LITE
position. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. Once the burner has a flame, push the control knob in
and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size.
Use the control knob markings and adjust the flame as
needed.
Important notes:
DO NOT cook with the surface control knob left in
the LITE position.
The electronic ignitor will continue to
spark if the control knob setting remains in the LITE
position .
When setting any surface control knob to the LITE
position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the
same time. However, only the surface burner you are
setting will ignite.
NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over 2
different surface cooking areas at the same time.
This can cause uneven heating results.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. Use caution when lighting
surface burners manually. To light a surface burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the
surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights push in
and turn knob to desired setting.
