simmer results. It offers precise cooking performance for

delicate foods, such as sauces or foods which need to

cook over low heat for a long time. It can be turned down

to a very low simmer setting.

The other burners are higher powered and will bring

liquids to a boil quicker, especially with the use of a lid.

Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.

position.

You will hear a little clicking noise—the sound of the

electric spark igniting the burner.

Turn the knob to adjust the flame size. If the knob stays

at LITE, it will continue to click.

When one burner is turned to LITE, all the burners

spark. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around

any burner while another burner

is on. An electric shock may

result, which could cause you to

knock over hot cookware.

If the burner has not been used

recently, the flames may make

an excessive noise. This is

normal, and it should dissipate

How to Select Flame Size

For safe handling of cookware, never let the flames

extend up the sides of the cookware.

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat. The

flame size on a gas burner should match the cookware

you are using.

Any flame larger than

the bottom of the

cookware is wasted

and only serves to

heat the handle.

In Case of Power Failure

In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface

burners on your cooktop with a match. Hold a lit match

to the burner, then push in and turn the control knob to

the LITE position. Use extreme caution when lighting

burners this way.

Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure

occurs will continue to operate normally.

IN CASE OF A POWER FAILURE, THE VENTILATION

SYSTEM WILL NOT OPERATE.
