beyond
the edge of the cooking
utensil.

knobs are turned to
off when you are not cooking.
Failure to follow these precautions
could result in fire or burns.
Using the surface burners
Control
knobs must be pushed
in and turned
to the LITE position. The clicking sound is the
ignition sparking.
To stop the clicking sound after the burner
lights, turn the control knob back to a desired
setting. The control knob can be set anywhere
between HI and OFF.
Surface burner markers

which surface burner is turned on by that knob.

cooking at the high settings; then turn the control
knob down to continue cooking.
Use LITE to light the burner. After the burner
lights, turn control back to a desired setting to
stop the clicking of the ignition.
Use HI to start foods cooking; to bring liquids
to a boil.
Use a medium setting
to continue cooking or
to fry chicken or pancakes; for gravy, pudding
and icing; to cook large amounts of vegetables.
Use a low setting to keep food warm until
ready to serve.
NOTE: Do not cook with the control in the LITE
position.
In case of a prolonged
power failure:
Surface burners can be manually lighted. Hold a
lighted match near a burner and turn the control
to the LITE position. After the burner lights, turn
the control to the desired setting.
NOTE: Do not leave an empty utensil, or one
which has boiled dry, on a hot surface burner.
The utensil could overheat and damage the
utensil or cooking product.
