The built-in vent system helps remove
cooking vapors, odors and smoke from
foods prepared on the cooktop.
To turn on the vent fan, use the vent
control switch on the control panel.
• Turn the vent fan speed control knob
to HI, MED or LO as needed.
NOTE: Even if the fan switch is
in the OFF position, the fan will
turn on automatically and operate
continuously while the grill burner
module is in use.
Continuous use of the vent system
while cooking helps keep the kitchen
comfortable and less humid, reducing
cooking odors and soiling moisture that
normally creates a frequent need for
cleaning.
At the HI fan speed setting, it is normal
for the nearby burner flames to be
drawn toward the vent grille. If cooking
performance is affected, then use a lower
fan speed setting.
IN CASE OF A POWER FAILURE,
THE VENTILATION SYSTEM WILL NOT
OPERATE. DO NOT USE THE GRILL
MODULE OR GRIDDLE IF THE
VENTILATION SYSTEM IS NOT
OPERATIONAL.

Wok This Way
We recommend that you use
a flat-bottomed wok, available
at your local retail store.
Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used.
Do not use a flat-bottomed wok with a wok
holder.
Do not use a flat-bottomed wok on
a support ring. Placing the ring over
the burner or grate may cause the burner
to work improperly, resulting in carbon
monoxide levels above allowable current
standards. This could be dangerous to
your health.
Use a flat-bottomed wok.
Cookware
Use large diameter cookware on rear
burners.
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly
and evenly. Most foods brown evenly
in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans
with tight fitting lids when cooking
with minimum amounts of water.
Enamelware: Under some conditions,
the enamel of some cookware may
melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass
cookware: those for oven use only
and those for cooktop cooking (saucepans,
coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat
very slowly.
Cast Iron: If heated slowly, most
skillets will give satisfactory results.
Heatproof Glass-Ceramic: Can be
used for either surface or oven cooking.
It conducts heat very slowly and cools
very slowly. Check cookware
manufacturer’s directions to be sure
it can be used on a gas cooktop.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has
poor heating properties and is usually
combined with copper, aluminum
or other metals for improved heat
distribution. Combination metal skillets
usually work satisfactorily if they are used
with medium heat as the manufacturer
recommends.
