Ignition
Manual ignition
If there is a power failure, you can ignite the burner manually. Use caution when
doing this.
1. Hold a long gas grill lighter to the cooktop burner you want to light.
2. Push in the control knob for that burner, and then turn it to the Lite position.
Turn on the grill lighter to ignite the burner.
3. After the burner is lit, turn the control knob to adjust the ame level.
Flame level
The ames on the burners should always stay under the cookw
are, and should not
extend beyond the cookware bottom at any time.
WARNING
Flames larger than the cookware bottom may result in a re or physical injury.
When you set a burner to simmer, do not turn the burner knob quickly. Watch the
ame to make sure it stays on.
After turning on a surface burner, make sure that the burner is ignited. Adjust the
level of the ame by turning the burner knob.
Always turn off the surface burner controls before removing cookware. All
surface burner controls should be turned OFF when you are not cooking.
Always turn the burners off before you go to sleep or go out.
If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the cooktop and call a qualied service
technician. NEVER use an open ame to locate a leak.
If you turn the knob, but the surface burner does not ignite, turn off the control
knob immediately.
Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on
the grate. The nish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot holder,
cleaning cloths or other materials on them.
