Practical advice on using the rangetop burners
NOTE
: Do not obstruct the flow of heat and ventilation around the edges of the grate.
For more efficient use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered cookware that is
proportional in size to the burner to prevent the flame from extending beyond the sides (see paragraph
“5.3 Cookware diameter"). When water begins to boil, lower the flame so that it does not boil over. To
avoid burns or damage to the rangetop, all pots, pans or griddles must be placed within the perimeter of
the rangetop. All cookware must have a flat and smooth bottom. When cooking with grease or oil, be
extremely careful to avoid overheating and a potential grease fire. If the flame accidentally goes out, turn
the control knob to off and wait at least 1 minute before trying to relight the burner.
NOTE
: Before turning on a burner, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner with
empty cookware or without placing the cookware on the grate.
Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface or burner.
NOTE
: No attempt should be made to operate the appliance during a power failure.
