Operating During a
Power Failure
1. Hold a lighted match to the desired surface burner.
2. Push in and turn the control knob slowly to LITE.
3. Adjust the flame to the desired level.
Burner Grates
The grates must be properly positioned before cooking.
When installingthe grates, place the tab ends toward the
center, matching the straight bars.
Improper installationof the grates may result in chipping of
the cooktop.
Do not operate the burners without a pan on the grate.
The grate's porcelain finish may chip without a pan to
absorb the heat from the burner flame.
Cooktop
To prevent the cooktop from discoloring
or staining:
" Clean cooktop after each use.
Wipe acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has
cooled as these spills may discolor
the porcelain.
Unlike a range with standard gas burners,
this cooktop does not lift-up nor is it
removable. Do not attempt to lift the
cool{top for any reason.
Sealed Gas Burners
Tile sealed burners of your range are secured to the cooktop
and are not designed to be removed. Since the burners are
sealed into the cooktop, boilovers or spills will not seep
underneath the cooktop.
However, the burner should be cleaned after each use. The
head portion of the burner is easily removed for cleaning.
(See page 6 for cleaning directions.)
The burner heads must be correctly placed on the burner
base for proper operation of the burner.
Power Boost Burner*
There is one high speed burner on your range, located in the
right front position. This burner offers higher speed cooking
that can be used to quickly bring water ,,owo,
to a boil and for large-quantity cooking, am _ro,,t

position. The simmer burner

sauces or melting chocolate. / Me,taD '_
BTU ratings will vary when using LP
gas.
Use care when stirring food in a pot/pan sitting on the burner
grate. The grates have a smooth finish for ease of cleaning.
The pot/pan will slide if the handle is not held. This may result
in spilling of hot food itemsand may be a burn hazard.
Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually
lose their shine and/or discolor, due to the high temperatures
of the gas flame.
Notes:
. A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light
within a few seconds. If using natural gas, the flame
will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.
If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas
mixture may be incorrect.Contact a service technician
to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by
the warranty.)
With LP gas, slight yellow tips on the flames are
acceptable. This is normal and adjustment is
not necessary.
With some types of gas, you may hear a "popping"
sound when the surface burner is turned off. This is a
normal operating sound of the burner.
If the control knob isturned very quickly from HI to LO,
the flame may go out, particularly if the burner is cold.
If this occurs, turn the knob to the OFF position, wait
several seconds and relight the burner.
" The flame should be adjusted so it does not extend
beyond the edge of the pan.
