U
sing and Caring for Your
Cooktop
This section tells you how to operate the controls to the cooktop. It also discusses how
the sealed gas burner cooktop works, and includes tips on how to cook with and
maintain the cooktop.

Using the surface burners

Your cooktop has sealed gas burners with
an auto-reignition system. The sealed
burners spread the heat evenly across the
bottom of the cookware and provide infinite
heat control. The auto-reignition system
senses when a burner flame has gone out
and will automatically reignite that burner.
IMPORTANT: Your cooktop is factory-set
for use with Natural Gas. If you wish to
use L.P. gas, an L.P. Gas Conversion Kit
is included with your new range. See the
appropriate section of the Installation
Instructions for details on making this
conversion.
