COOKTOP USE

To Set:
1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LITE.
All surface burners will click. Only the burner with the control
knob turned to LITE will produce a flame.
2. Turn knob to anywhere between HIGH and LOW.
REMEMBER: When range is in use, the entire cooktop area
may become hot.
Power™ Burner Feature
The left front burner is designed to give ultra-power when fully on.
It can be used to rapidly bring liquid to a boil and to cook large
quantities of food.
Flex-Choice™ Burner Feature
The Flex-Choice™ feature allows for more precise simmering and
low temperature cooking. It is the right rear burner.
Power Failure
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise to LITE. After burner lights, turn knob to desired
setting.

Sealed Surface Burners

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil
and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material
to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the gas tube
by always using a burner cap.
Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is
blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow
spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the
burner ports.
