Setting Surface Controls
Your cooktop may be equipped with any
combination of the following burners:
Simmer Burner: best used for simmering delicate
sauces, etc.
Standard Burner: used for most all surface cooking
needs.
Large Burner: best used when bringing large
quantities of liquid to temperature and when
preparing larger quantities of food.
Regardless of size, always select a utensil
that is suitable for the amount and type of food
being prepared. Select a burner and ame size
appropriate to the pan. Never allow ames to
extend beyond the outer edge of the pan. Your
cooktop is also equipped with 270° rotation ame
control valves. These valves provide enhanced
control of the burner ame. Each burner lights
automatically from an electric ignitor when its
control knob is turned to the LITE position.
To operate the surface burner:
1. Place cooking utensil on burner.
2. Push in and turn the Surface Control knob to
(LITE). Note: All electronic ignitors will click
at the same time. However, only the burner you
are turning on will ignite.
3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. Turn the control knob to the desired ame size. The
control knobs do not have to be set at a particular
mark. Use the guides and adjust the ame as
needed. DO NOT cook with the Surface Control
knob in the
position. (The electronic ignitor will
continue to click if left in the
position, causing
premature wear.)
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
. Use caution when
lighting surface burners manually.
The cooktop should not be used during a self-clean
cycle. On some models, turning on any cooktop
surface burner will cause the clean cycle to cancel. If
the clean cycle is canceled, the oven control display
will show “SPr” for 5 seconds. The oven door will
remain locked until the oven has cooled down below
cleaning temperature. If the oven is below cleaning
temperature, the user can start another clean cycle
immediately. If the oven is in cleaning temperature
range, another self-clean cycle can be set once the
door unlocks (up to 4 hours).
The griddle is intended for direct food cooking
and can be used on both sides. Do not use pans
or other cookware on the griddle. Doing so could
damage the nish. Center the griddle over the
bridge burner.

Using the griddle
Burner control knob
Do not place plastic items such as salt and
pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the cooktop when it is in
use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders,
towels or wood spoons could catch re if placed
too close to a ame.
Always place the griddle on the grate before
lighting the burner.
Always use potholders to remove the griddle
from the grate. Allow the griddle to cool
before removing. Do not set hot griddle on
surfaces that cannot withstand high heat;
such as countertops.
Be sure the griddle is positioned correctly
and stable before use to prevent hot spills
and possible burns.
