Setting Surface Controls
Your gas appliance may be equipped with different sized
surface burners. The ability to heat food quicker and in
larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. It is
important to select cookware that is suitable for the amount
and type of food being prepared.
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 coun-
terclockwise out of the OFF position.
3. Release the surface control knob and rotate to the LITE
position. Visually check that the burner is lit.
4. Once the burner has a flame, push the control knob in
and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size.
Use the control knob markings and adjust the flame as
needed.

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.
Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two
different 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 even
-
tually transfer to the surface control knobs located
directly above the oven door.
Do not place flammable 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 fire if placed too close to the range
cooktop.
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.
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).
