Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Check the following:
• Make sure the power supply cord is plugged
into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
• Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If
the problem continues, call an electrician.
Make sure the cooktop is properly connected
to the gas supply. Contact a service technician
or refer to the installation instructions.
If the burner is wet or dirty, clean and/or let the burner dry.
Be sure the cookware is approximately the same size as the cooking area and surface burner.
Cookware should not extend more than 1/2"(13 mm) outside the cooking area.
Adjust the flame so that it does not wrap around the cookware.
Check the following:
• Be sure the proper cookware is being used. Refer to the "Cooking with Your Cooktop" section.
• Check the heat level. Refer to "Excessive heat around the cookware on cooktop."
• Check the level of the cooktop. Refer to the Installation Instructions.
Ensure the cooktop gas supply is correct (LP or Natural gas). These cooktops come from the factory set for Natural gas.
Refer to the Installation Instructions to verify that the pressure regulator is installed correctly and the line pressure and the
