COOKTOP USE

ELECTRONIC IGNITERS:

If a burner does not light or re-ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If none of the igniters are clicking, turn off the
burner and check the circuit panel for a blown fuse or a tripped circuit breaker. If only one burner is not lighting,
its igniter or burner ports need to be cleaned. See section 'Care and maintenance' for instructions.

BURNER EFFICIENCY:

It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters clean for proper lighting and efficient performance. The
burner flame should burn completely around the burner with no excessive noise or lifting. The flame should be
blue in color and stable with no yellow tips.
FLAME HEIGHTS:
■
For safety reasons the flame must never extend beyond the bottom of the cooking utensil.
■ Never allow flames to curl up the side of the pan.
■ Utensils which conduct heat slowly (such as glass-ceramic) should be used with medium to low flames. If you
are cooking with a large amount of liquid a slightly larger flame can be used.

BURNER GRATES:

The cast iron burner grates are fully porcelain coated for long life and rust prevention. Hi-Temperature
cushions allow the grate to rest softly on the cooktop without scratching. For cleaning tips see the 'Care and
maintenance' section.

IF THERE IS A POWER FAILURE:

WARNING:
Use extreme caution when lighting and using a burner during a power failure.
■ To light a burner during power failure: holding a lighted match to the port ring, push the burner's control knob
in and rotate counterclockwise to LO. After the flame is burning all the way around the burner, adjust the flame.
It is necessary to light each burner separately, each time you want to use it.
■
Do not leave the burner unattended. If the flame is blown out, turn the control knob to OFF immediately. During
a power failure, the burner will not automatically relight if blown out.
■ After use, make sure that you turn the control knobs clockwise back to OFF.
