HOW TO USE THE TOP BURNERS
 GAS BURNERS
Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knobs which control the valves. Turning the knob so
that the indicator line points to the symbols printed on the panel achieves the following functions:
When knob is rotated to the maximum position it will permit the rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the
minimum position allows the simmer warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.
To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further counter-clockwise to point the LO
position.
Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator between the
maximum and minimum positions, and never between the maximum and positions.
When the range is not being used, set the gas knobs to their positions and also close the gas
shut-off valve placed on the main gas supply line.
 LIGHTING GAS BURNERS
In order to light the burner, you must:
1 – Push and turn the knob in a counterclockwise direction up to the position (maximum rate), push in and hold
the knob until the flame has been lit. The sparks produced by the internal igniter will light the designated burner.
In the event that the local gas supply conditions make it difficult to light the burner in the HI position, try again with
the knob in LO position.
2 – Adjust the gas valve to the desired position.
To re-light the burner, return the knob to the position and repeat the operations for lighting.
Caution! The range becomes very hot during operation. Keep children well
out of reach.
