Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when
control knobs are turned to .
Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the
grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without
cookware on the grate.
The flame should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the
edge of the pan.
To Set:
1.
Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to .
All surface burners will click. Only the burner with the control
knob turned to will produce a flame.
2.
Turn knob to anywhere between HIGH and LOW.
Power Failure
In case of a prolonged power failure, the surface burners cannot
be lit manually. No attempt should be made to operate the
appliance during a power failure.
Sealed Surface Burners
IMPORTANT:
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner Cap:
Always keep the burner cap in place when using a
surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition and
uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover and
routinely remove and clean the caps according to the “General
Cleaning” section.
Gas Tube Opening:
Gas must flow freely throughout the gas
tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free
of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the
gas tube by always using a burner cap.
Burner Ports:
Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame
is blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not
allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other material to enter
the burner ports.
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of
the pan.
Turn off all controls when not cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or fire.
REMEMBER:
When range is in use or (on some models)
during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may
become hot.
