Do not place fl ammable 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
fi re if placed too close to the range cooktop.
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 home canning
procedures.
• Use only quality
fl at bottom canners when home
canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.
• Use only a completely fl at bottom canner.
• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed
1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner.
• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more
quickly.
• Use the highest heat setting when fi rst bringing the
water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat
to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.
Setting Surface Controls
Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY
material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items
melt they may permanently damage the cooktop surface.
Always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and
type of food being prepared. Set a
fl ame size appropriate
to the cookware. Adjust burner to a setting that does not
allow
fl ames to extend beyond the outer edge of the
cooking utensil.
When a surface control knob is turned to the LITE position,
the selected surface burner will ignite automatically from a
spark generated by the electric ignitor.
To set surface burners:
1. Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner grate.
Be sure the cooking utensil sets stable on the burner
grate.
2. Push the desired surface control knob in and turn
counterclockwise out of the OFF position (Fig. 1).
3. Rotate to the LITE position. Visually check that the
burner has lit.
4. Once the burner has a fl ame, turn the knob out of the
LITE setting to the desired fl ame size setting. Use the
control knob markings and adjust the fl ame as needed.
Please note: DO NOT cook with the surface control knob
left in the LITE position. The electronic ignitor will continue
to spark if the control knob setting remains in the LITE
position .
When setting any surface control knob to the LITE position,
all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time.
However, only the surface burner you are setting will ignite.
Important notes
• NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over 2
di ff erent surface cooking areas at the same time. This
can cause uneven heating results.
• In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. Use caution when lighting
surface burners 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.
• When operating the oven, it is possible for residual heat
from the oven to build-up and over time to eventually
transfer to the surface control knobs located directly
above the oven door.
