Make sure all burners are in place.
Make sure all grates on the range are
properly placed before using any burner.
If your range has the Gas/Control Lockout
feature, make sure it is disabled before
attempting to light the surface burners.
After Lighting a Gas Burner
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.
Be sure the burners and grates ore cool
before you place your hand, a pot holder,
cleaning cloths or other materials on them.
Push the control knob in and turn
it to the LITE position.
How
to Light a Gas Surface
Burner
Make sure all the surface burners are placed in
their respective positions.
Push the control knob in and turn it to the LITE
position.
You will hear a little clicking noise-the sound
of the electric spark igniting the burner.
Turn the knob to adjust the flame size. If the
knob stays at LITE,it will continue to click.
When one burner is turned to LifE, all the
burners spark. Do not attempt to disassemble
or clean around any burner while another
burner is on. An electric shock may result,which
could cause you to knock over hot cookware.

Sealed Gas Burners
Your gas range cooktop has sealed gas
burners. They offer convenience, cleanability
and flexibility to be used in a wide range of
cooking applications.
The smallest burner in the right rear position
is the simmer burner. On some models, the
right front position triple flame burner will be
the simmer burner. This burner can be turned
down to SIM for a very low simmer setting.
It provides precise cooking performance for
delicate foods such as sauces or foods that
require low heat for a long cooking time.
The medium (left rear) and the large (left
front) burners are the primary burners
for most cooking. These general-purpose
burners can be turned down from HI to LO to
suit a wide range of cooking needs.
The extra large burner (right front, triple flame
burner, or left front burner on some models) are
the maximum output burners. Likethe other
four burners, it can be turned down from HI to
SIM for a wide range of cooking applications.
These burners are designed to quickly bring
large amounts of liquid to a boil. They have
a special POWER BOILT" setting designed to
be used with cookware 10 inches or larger in
diameter for the extra large and 12 inches or
larger for the triple flame burner.
For extra large burners only
For tri-ring burners only
The center oval burner (on some models)is for
large pots/pans or for use with the griddle.
