burner cap. Burner grates should rest flat on the cooktop. The rubber feet on the
grates should rest in the indents on the cooktop.
Burner Grate
The cooktop uses electronic ignitors to light the burners, There is no pilot light.
Each burner has its own ignitor. For proper operation, keep the ignitor clean and
dry. It is necessary to clean these when there is a boilover or when the burner
does not light even though the ignitor clicks.
Caution: All ignitors spark when any single burner is turned on. Do not
touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in use.
The high power burner is the largest burner. It is the most powerful burner on the
cooktop. It retains heat longer than normal burner caps and, at low settings, pro-
hibits the flame from touching the cookware. This results in a gentle, more predict-
able heat. Use the low settings on this burner to simmer large amounts of sauces
or soups. Use the high settings to quickly bring large amounts of water to a boil.
The precision burner is the smallest burner on the cooktop. It is well suited for
gentle cooking of small amounts of food. Use the burner to melt butter or choco-
late or to prepare delicate sauces.
Depending on model, the range is equipped with one of the following combina-
tions:
• Three flat racks
• Two flat racks and one full extension rack
• Two flat racks and one half rack

of the oven and not tilt.
CAUTION
To avoid burns, place oven racks in desired positions before turning
oven on. Always use oven mitts when the oven is warm.If a rack must
be moved while the oven is hot, do not let oven mitts contact hot burn-
ers.
