Setting surface controls
The ability to heat food quickly and in large volumes
increases as the burner size increases. Your gas appliance
may be equipped with many different sized surface burners.
It is important to select cookware that is suitable for the
amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner
and flame size appropriate for the cookware size.
•
The standard size burner or burners may be used for
most surface cooking needs.
•
Small burners are best used for low-flame heating of
small amounts of food.
•
Large burners are best for bringing large quantities of
liquid to temperature or heating larger quantities of
food.
Setting a surface burner:
1.
Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner grate.
Be sure the cooking utensil rests stable on the burner
grate.
2.
Push the burner’s surface control knob in and turn
counterclockwise out of the OFF position (
).
3.
Release the surface control knob and rotate to the LITE
position (
). Visually check that the burner has a
steady gas flame.
4.
Once the surface burner has a flame, push the surface
control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired
flame size setting. Adjust the flame as needed using the
knob markings.
•
NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over two
different surface cooking areas at the same time
unless the cookware is specifically designed for the
purpose.
•
DO NOT cook with a surface control knob left in the
lite position (
). The electronic ignitor will continue to
spark. Turn the control knob out of the lite position
and adjust the flame size.
•
Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material that can
melt on the range cooktop. If items melt, they may
permanently damage the appearance of the cooktop.
IMPORTANT
Do not
place flammable items such as plastic wrappings,
spoon holders, or plastic salt and pepper shakers 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 surface burners.

•
When setting a surface control knob to the lite
position, all of the electronic surface ignitors will spark
at the same time. However, only the surface burner
you are setting will ignite.
•
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners may be lit manually. To light a surface burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn
the surface control knob to lite. Once the burner
ignites, push in and turn knob out of lite then to the
desired flame setting. Use caution when lighting
surface burners manually.
