Installing the Burner Knobs

CAUTION
Installing the cooktop knobs in the wrong position may
result in damage to the cooktop griddle. The knobs for
the center burners are marked with the maximum griddle
settings.
When installing the
knobs, align the
"D-shaped" open-
ing on the back of
the knob with the
end of the valve
shaft. Carefully push
the knob on until it
stops.
There are two differ-
ent types of knobs
for the cooktop. The
knobs for the center
burners have the words MAX GRIDDLE on them.
1. Put the knobs with
on them onto the inner (center burner) valve
shafts. See the diagram on the right.
2. Put the remaining knobs on the outer valve
shafts.
Selecting the Cookware
WARNING
• To avoid burns and scalding, always turn pan handles
to a position where they cannot be easily hit. Also,
handles should not extend over adjacent burners.
Always set utensils gently onto the grates and center
them so that they are well-balanced.
• Do not drag cookware across the grates. Sliding may
damage the finish. Lift utensils to reposition them. Do
not drop them on the grate.
• Cookware with rough bottoms can cause permanent
damage to the coated surfaces on the grates.
• To avoid burns or a fire hazard, reduce the flame level
if it extends beyond the bottom of the utensil. Flames
extending up the sides are potentially dangerous.

For overall safety and best cooktop performance,
select the correct cooking utensil for the food being
cooked. Improperly selected cooking utensils will
not cook evenly or efficiently.
Use cookware that:
• Has flat, smooth bottoms.
• Is well balanced.
• Has tight fitting lids to keep heat, odors and
steam in.
IMPORTANT: Avoid spills as much as possible.
The porcelain surfaces of the grates, spill trays and
burner caps are acid-resistant but not acid-proof.
Some foods can cause permanent damage if allowed
to remain on porcelain surfaces.
