GAS COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Checking Operation

Refer to the Use and Care Guide packaged with the
cooktop for operating instructions and for care and
cleaning of your cooktop.
Do not touch the burners. They may be
hot enough to cause burns.
1. Install Burner Caps
This cooktop is equipped with sealed burners as
shown (see Figure 8).
A. Unpack your burner heads and burner caps.
B. Place burner head over each gas orifice,
matching the head with the orifice size. Be
careful not to damage the electrode while
placing the head over the orifice. Make sure
electrode fits correctly into slot in burner head.
C. Place a burner cap on each burner head,
matching the cap size to the head size. Each
burner cap has an inner locating ring which
centers the cap correctly on the burner head.
D. Be sure that all the burner caps and burner
heads are correctly placed BEFORE using your
cooktop.

Operation of electric igniters should be checked after
cooktop and supply line connectors have been
carefully checked for leaks and the cooktop has
been connected to electric power.
To operate the surface burner:
A. Push in and turn a surface burner knob to the
LITE position. You will hear a ticking noise; this
is the sound of the electric ignitor which lights
the burner.
B. After the burner lights, turn to the desired flame
size. The controls do not have to be set at a
particular mark. Use the marks as a guide and
adjust the flame as needed.
Burner Valves (see Figure 9)
Push in and turn each control knob to the "LO" (or
"SIMMER") setting. The "LO" setting of each
burner has been set at the factory to the lowest
setting available to provide reliable reignition of the
burner. If it does not stay lit on the "LO" setting,
check the setting as follows.
Be careful when performing this
operation.
A. Allow cooktop to cool to room temperature.
B. Light all burners by turning each control knob to
LITE until burners ignite, and then set them at
"HI".
C. Quickly turn the knob to the LOWEST POSITION.
D. If burner goes out, readjust valve as follows:
Remove the surface burner control knob, insert a
thin-bladed screw driver into the hollow valve
stem and engage the slotted screw inside. Flame
size can be increased or decreased with the turn
of the screw. To increase flame size turn the
screw counterclockwise and to decrease turn
clockwise. Adjust flame until you can quickly
turn knob from HI to LOWEST POSITION without
extinguishing the flame. Flame should be as
small as possible without going out.
E. If you need to adjust another burner, repeat the
steps from A to D above until all burners operate
properly.
