OPERATION OF THE BURNERS

1. Press in on the knob that corresponds to the burner that you would like to light. Use the front panel graphic to conrm

your selection until you become familiar with the range. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to the "American Flame" icon

located on the knob – this is the light position of the burner valve.

2. The igniter for all the surface burners will begin sparking – however, gas will ow to only the selected burner.

3. After the burner lights, the igniter clicking will stop – indicating that the ame sensing and re-ignition system is active on the

selected burner.

4. Rotate the knob to any ame setting that you desire between MAX and SIMMER. The blue panel light will remain lit until

the valve is returned to the OFF position.

The surface burners are rated at different power levels:

When you are using the surface burners, select the burner power and location depending on the heating or cooking function you

would like to perform.

A normal ame is blue in color and steady. Foreign materials in the kitchen air or the gas line, especially in new construction

installations, may cause some orange color bursts during initial operation. This will disappear with continued use. Small yellow tips on

the ends of ames are normal when using LP gas.

If the ames look odd (too small, too large, lazy or drifting, uneven around the burner circle, etc.) check to see that the burner head

is seated correctly on the burner base. Do this when the burner is cold by gently rocking the burner head or rotating the head from

side to side. If it is correctly seated, it will nest in detents. If this does not correct the problem, turn to the Troubleshooting section

of this manual.

AUTO RE-IGNITION

The surface burners are equipped with a special ignition and re-ignition system that senses the presence of ame and re-ignites the

burner should the ame disappear while gas is still owing to the burner.

Strong drafts, spills and general grime inuence the operation of the automatic re-ignition system – a clean system will generally

function better than a dirty system. Periodically, remove any materials or grime that might build up on the high voltage spark

electrode – using a toothbrush or other non-metallic cleaning utensil.

BEFORE USING THE NEW COOK TOP

• Before using the cook top for the rst time, wash the outside area with soap and water to remove any shipping and factory

residue.

• The burner grates are designed in sections and are easy to remove and clean. They are made of cast iron with a porcelain

coating and will remain hot after the burner is turned off creating a residual heat for continued cooking. Use caution when

handling.

• Your new professional Range is equipped with burners that are similar to those used in restaurants.

• The burner heads are designed to ensure even heat distribution for better cooking. They must be in place and properly

seated before lighting.

• The Range must not be operated without the burner heads.

• There are no continuously burning pilot lights. An electronic spark ignition system is used to light the burner. If the ame

should go out from a boil-over or a strong draft, the burner will automatically reignite.
