USING THE RANGE

IN CASE OF A POWER FAILURE

In the event of a power failure, the oven is inoperable and no
attempt should be made to operate it. However, the surface
burners may be lit with a match. Using extreme caution,
hold a lit match near the ports beneath the surface burner
cap, then slowly turn the knob to the LITE position. Once lit,
surface burners will continue to operate normally.

SURFACE BURNERS

Lighting a Surface Burner
WARNING
Burners should be operated only when
covered by cookware. Burner flames not covered by
cookware present a risk of fire or clothing ignition. Never
let flames extend beyond the sides of the cookware.
Failure to comply may result in serious injury.
Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and fully
assembled before attempting to operate any burner.
Select a burner and find its control knob. Push the knob in
and turn it to the LITE position.
You will hear a clicking noise—the sound of the electric spark
igniting the burner. When one burner is turned to LITE, all
burners will spark. Sparking will continue as long as the knob
remains at LITE. Once gas is ignited, turn the knob to adjust
the flame size.
Push the control knob in and turn it to the LITE position.
Selecting a Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When
rapid heating is desired, the flame size should match the
size of the cookware you are using. Flames larger than the
bottom of the cookware will not heat faster and may be
hazardous.
These flames are too large for the pot

Using the Surface Burners
NOTES:
• Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time
without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate
may discolor or chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
• Do not attempt to disassemble any burner while another
burner is on. Damage to the product may occur.
• Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you place
your hand, a pot holder or cleaning materials on them.
Your rangetop has sealed gas burners that offer
convenience, cleanability and flexibility for a wide range of
cooking applications.
The smallest burner is the simmer burner. A simmer burner
turned down to LO provides precise cooking performance
for foods such as delicate sauces that require low heat for a
long cooking time.
Surface Burner
The round burner is for general cooking purposes. Size
cookware appropriately to the flames.
