IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP
CAUTION
Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust fl ame
size so it does not extend beyond the
edge of the utensil. The use of undersized
utensils will expose a portion of the burn-
er fl ame to direct contact and may result
in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship
of utensil to fl ame will also improve effi -
ciency.
Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware with
food on the cooking area before turning it
on. Turn the cooking area off before remov-
ing the cookware.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of different sizes. Select cookware with fl at
bottoms that match the surface unit heat-
ing element. The use of undersized cook-
ware may expose a portion of the fl ame to
direct contact and may result in the ignition
of clothing or other items. Using the proper
cookware on the cooking areas will improve
effi ciency.
Always turn knob to the full LITE position
when igniting top burners. Visually check
that burner has lit. Then adjust the fl ame
so it does not extend beyond the edge of
the utensil.
To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
fl ammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of the utensil should be positioned
so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface burners
Never leave surface burners unattended
at high heat settings — Boil overs cause
smoking and greasy spill overs that may ig-
nite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only cer-
tain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic,earthenware, or other glazed uten-
sils are suitable for cook top service with-
out breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cook top use.
When you are fl aming foods under a venti-
lating hood, turn the fan on.
