COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES
Keep handles out of the way. Turn handles so that they don't extend over the edge of therange or on a
burner that is on.
Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high setting.
Make sure that all burner parts are properly in place. Incorrectly or incompletely assembled burners
may produce dangerous flames. See 'Replacing the burner parts' in 'Care and cleaning'.
Keep the burners clean, especially after a spill or boil over, make sure you clean the affected burners
before using them again. Food residue may clog the ignite and the notches of the flame spreader,
stopping the burner from functioning correctly. See "Care and cleaning" for instructions.
Check that the burner flames. They should be blue with no yellow tipping, and burn without fluttering all
around the burner cap. If not, see 'Troubleshooting' for advice.
Surface Burner Ignition
To light the top burners, push and turn the
appropriate control knob counter clockwise to
the "Hi"or "Med" or "Lo" position. You will hear
a clicking noise – the sound of the electric spark
igniting the burner. Once burner ignition has been
achieved, then turn the burner control knob to
adjust the desired heat setting.
