HOW TO USE
In Case of Power Failure:
In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface burn-
ers on your range with a match.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure
occurs will continue to operate normally.
1
Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in the control
knob.
2
Turn the control knob to the "
Lo
” position.
Top-of-range cookware
Use a flat-bottomed wok.
Do not place stove-top grills on the burner.
Aluminum
Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats
quickly and evenly. Most foods
brown evenly in an aluminum
skillet. Use saucepans with tight
fitting lids when cooking with
minimum amounts of water.
Cast-Iron
If heated slowly, most skillets will
give satisfactory results.
Stainless Steel
This metal alone has poor
heating properties and is usually
combined with copper, aluminum
or other metals for improved heat
distribution. Combination metal
skillets work satisfactorily if they
are used with medium heat as the
manufacturer recommends.
Enamelware
Under some conditions, the
enamel of this cookware may melt.
Follow cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations for cooking
methods.
Glass
There are two types of glass
cookware - those for oven use only
and those for top-of-range cooking.
Heatproof Glass
Ceramic
Can be used for either surface or
oven cooking. It conducts heat
very slowly and cools very slowly.
Check cookware manufacturer’s
directions to be sure it can be used
on gas ranges.
If using a wok, it is recommended that you use a 14-inch or
smaller flat-bottomed wok. Make sure that the wok bottom
sits flat on the grate.
CAUTION
DO NOT
use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the
burner or grate may cause the burner to work improp-
erly, resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable
standards. This can be hazardous to your health.
Using a Wok:
Using Stove-top Grills:
CAUTION
DO NOT
use stove top grills on your surface burners.
Using a stove top grill on the surface burner will cause
incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to
carbon monoxide levels above allowable current stan-
dards. This can be hazardous to your health.
CAUTION
Use extreme caution when lighting burners with a match.
It can cause burn and damage.
