NOTE:
If the burner does not ignite, check the ignitor
by listening for the clicking sound. If you do not hear
the ignitor click, TURN
THE BURNER
OFF. Check to
make sure the service cord is firmly in place in the wall
receptacle. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown
fuse.
IF THE SPARK IGNITOR STILL FAILS TO OPERATE,
CALL YOUR NEAREST
AUTHORIZED
SERVICE OUTLET.
Cooking Tips and Facts
e¢ For best cooking results, always use cooking utensils
with flat bottoms, straight sides and tight fitting
covers.
*
Adjust flame size so that it heats just the bottom of
the pan and does not extend over the sides of the
pan.
©
Use only the correct size cooking utensils. Heat
reflected from pans much larger than the outside
edge of the burner flame may result in damage
and/or discoloration of the cooktop or drip pans.
¢
When using LP (propane gas), a slight pop or flash
may occur at the burner ports a few seconds after the
burner has been turned off. This may be due to the
variations in the composition of LP gas and usually
occurs after the burner has been on a long time and
has become hot. This is normal operation for your
cooktop.
NOTE:
In wiring old homes, polarity was not always
observed. Although polarized receptacles (3 prong) may
have been installed, if wired incorrectly, the ignitor will
find a grounded condition and will click intermittently
even with all the controls turned off.
How to light your
cooktop during
a power failure
You may safely use your
cooktop during an electrical
power failure by turning the
control knob to 'HI' while
carefully holding a match to
the burner.
