SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Setting a surface burner
1. Place cooking utensil on top of surface burner grate.
Make sure the cooking untensil is centered and stable
on the grate.
2. Push the desired surface control knob in and turn
counterclockwise out of the OFF position (Fig. 1).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the lite position. Visually
check that the gas burner has lit.
4. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to
the desired flame size. Use the control knob markings
and adjust the flame as needed.
DO NOT cook with the surface control knob left in the
LITE position. The electronic ignitor will continue to spark
if the control knob is left in the LITE position. When
setting any surface control knob to the LITE position, all
electronic ignitors will spark at the same time. However,
only the surface burner you are setting will ignite.
NOTE
Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points when
home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA
(United States Department of Agriculture) website and be
sure to read all the information they have available as well as
follow their recommendations for canning procedures.
• Use only quality flat bottom canners when home canning.
Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom (see
“Cookware material types” in the Before setting surface
controls section).
• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more quickly.
• Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the water
to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest
possible setting to maintain that boil.
IMPORTANT
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can 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. After burner lights push in
and turn knob to desired setting. Use caution when
lighting surface burners manually.
Seasoning, using and caring for the griddle
Before first use:
• Wash griddle in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry
completely.
• Apply a thin coat of vegetable oil to the entire surface
(front and back of griddle).
• Preheat your oven to 350°F. Place the griddle on the
upper rack in your oven.
• Bake griddle for 1 hour at 350°F, then turn oven OFF and
let cool before removing.
• The surface may appear to have a tacky feel to it from
the seasoning process. If desired, wash the griddle in hot
soapy water, rinse well, and dry completely.
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.

Your gas range may be
equipped with many
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. Select a
burner and flame size
appropriate for the
cookware size.
After each use:
• To prevent rusting, store in a dry place and keep
uncovered.
• After each use, clean with a stiff brush and hot water
only.
• Do not clean griddle in the dishwasher .
• Dry Immediately and apply a light coating of vegetable oil
to griddle before storing.
Using the griddle:
Remove the center burner grate and carefully replace with
the griddle (some models). Preheat the griddle for 5
minutes on medium to medium low setting. Slow preheat
ensures even heat distribution during the cooking process.
DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting. Preheating on HI
may warp the griddle and prevent even heat distribution.
The smaller simmer burner (some models) is best suited
for simmering delicate sauces, etc. The standard size
(9,500 BTU) burners may be used for most surface cooking
needs.
The larger quick boil (some models) burner or burners are
best used for bringing larger amounts of liquid to
temperature and when preparing larger quantities of food.
