Surface Burner Controls
Knobs that turn the surface burners on and off are
marked as to which burners they control. The two
knobs on the left control the left front and left rear
burners. The two knobs on the right control the right
front and right rear burners. The center left knob
controls the center oval burner.
Before Lighting a Burner
• Make sure all the grates (and the center griddle, if it
is going to be used) are in place on the range before
using any burner.
To Light a Surface Burner
Push the control knob in
and turn it to LITE.
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 LITE, 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.
After Lighting a Burner
• Do not operate a 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.

SURFACE COOKING
• The center oval burner is the largest in size and
is for large oval pots/pans, round pots/pans 10"
or greater in diameter or with the griddle.
• The side burners are all the same size
and power.
In case of a power failure, you can light the
surface burners on your range with a match. Hold
a lighted match to the burner, then turn the knob
to the LITE position. Use extreme caution when
lighting burners this way.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power
failure occurs will continue to operate normally.
• Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you
place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or
other materials on them.
