Pilotless
Ignition
Pilotless ignition eliminates the need for
a constant standing pilot light. Each
surface burner has a spark
ignitor. Use care when
cleaning around the surface
burner.
If the surface burner does not light,
check if ignitor is broken, soiled or wet.
Setting the controls:
The size and type of cookware will affect the heat setting.
1. Place a pan on the burner grate.
•
The burner flame may lift off or appear separated from
the port if a pan is not placed on the grate.
2. Push in and turn the knob
counterclockwise
to the
Light
setting.
•
A clicking (spark) sound will be heard and the burner
will light. (All of the ignitors will spark whenever any
surface burner knob is turned to the Light position.)
3. After the burner lights, turn the knob to the desired
flame size.
• The ignitor will continue to spark until the knob is
turned past the Light position.
Surface Control Knobs
Use to turn on the surface burners. An infinite choice of heat
settings is available from Low to High. The knobs can be set
on or between any of the settings.
Graphics next to the knob identify which burner
the knob controls. For example, the graphic at left
shows the right front burner location.
CAUTION
• If flame should go out during a cooking operation and
the burner does not reignite itself, turn the burner off. If a
strong gas odor is detected, open a window and wait five
minutes
before
relighting the burner.
• Be sure all surface controls are set in the
OFF
position
prior to supplying gas to the range.
•
NEVER
touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some
parts of the cooktop, especially around the burners, to
become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders to
protect hands.
High
: Use
to bring liquid to a boil, or reach
pressure in a pressure cooker. Always
reduce setting to a lower heat when liquids
begin to boil or foods begin to cook.
An intermediate flame size is used to
continue cooking. Food will not cook any
faster when a higher flame setting is used
than needed to maintain a gentle boil.
Water boils at the same temperature
whether boiling gently or vigorously.
Low
: Use
to simmer foods, keep foods
warm and melt chocolate or butter. Some
cooking may take place on the Low
setting if the pan is covered. It is possible
to reduce the heat by rotating the knob
toward
OFF
. Be sure flame is stable.
CAUTION
When lighting the surface burners, be sure all of the
controls are in the
OFF
position. Strike the match first and
hold it in position
before
turning the knob to
Light
.
Operating During a
Power Failure
1. Hold a lighted match to the desired surface burner head.
2. Push in and turn the control knob slowly to
Light
.
3. Adjust the flame to the desired level.
