OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS, located in your appliance's Owner's Manual, before operating this appliance.
Using Your Cooktop
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Do not let the burner flame extend beyond
the edge of the pan.
Turn off all controls when not cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death or fire.
SELECTING THE PROPER FLAME SIZE
The flame size should match the cookware
you are using. Watch the flame, not the
knob, to adjust the heat. A flame larger than
the bottom of the cookware wastes energy
and will heat the handle.
�
High flame -
Start food cooking, bring
water to a boil, or pan broiling.
�
Medium flame -
Maintain a slow boil, fry
or sauté, thicken sauces, steam, or
stew.
�
Low flame -
Keep food cooking or keep
food warm.
REMEMBER:
When cooktop is in use, the
entire cooktop area may become hot.
PROPANE GAS CONVERSION
IMPORTANT:
This cooktop is factory set for use with Natural gas. If you wish to use Liquid Propane, call a
licensed professional to install the Propane gas conversion kit (included).
PLACEMENT OF BURNER HEADS AND CAPS
All burner caps and burner bases should be properly installed BEFORE operating the cooktop. Check that
the right size head and cap is on the right size burner.
Refer to the “Burner Placement” section for proper burner head placement details.
LIGHTING THE BURNERS
IMPORTANT:
All burners will click/spark when a knob is pushed in and turned counterclockwise towards
“Ignite”. A burner will light while the knob is between the “Ignite” and “Hi” position.
Surface burners use electric igniters. When the cooktop control knob is turned towards “Ignite” position, a
spark is used to light the burner. This sparking will conclude between the “Ignite” and “Hi” position.
To light the burners:
1.
Push in the knob.
2.
Turn the knob counterclockwise to “Ignite”. Wait until you see a flame.
3.
Turn the knob anywhere between Hi (H) and Lo (L) to the desired setting.

Always line up the hole in the burner
