Setting Surface Controls
Control Locations of the Gas Surface Burners
Figure 1 (30" models)
Figure 2 (36" models)
Your cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners with 3 different BTU
ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases
as the burner size increases.
The small SIMMER burner is best used for simmering delicate sauces,
etc. This burner is located at the right rear burner position on the
cooktop.
The STANDARD burners can be used for most surface cooking needs.
The 2 burners are located at the left front and rear burner positions on
the cooktop. For 36" models there is third standard burner located in the
center rear position,
The POWER burner is best used for bringing large quantities
of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when preparing larger
quantities of food. The POWER burner is located at the right
front burner position on the cooktop.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for
the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner
and flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to
extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Operating the Gas Surface Controls:
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner,
2. Push the surface control knob down and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF
position.
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position (see figure 3). Note: All four electronic
surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning
on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has a flame.
5. Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the desired flame size. The control knobs
do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the knob indicator settings to adjust
the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the surface control knob in the LITE position.
(The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position.)

NOTE:
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 LITE. After burner lights turn the knob to desired
setting. Use caution when lighting surface burners manually. Surface burner in use when an electrical power failure occurs
will continue to operate normally.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wood spoons could
catch fire if placed too close to a flame.
Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish
on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
