CAUTION
• If flame should go out during a cooking
operation, turn the burner off. If a
strong gas odor is detected, open a
window and wait five minutes before
relighting the burner.
• Be sure all surface controls are set to
the OFF position prior to supplying gas
to the cooktop.
• NEVER touch cooktop until it has
cooled. Expect some parts of the
cooktop, especially around the burn-
ers, to become warm or hot during
cooking. Use potholders to protect
hands.

ILOTLESS GNITION
Pilotless ignition eliminates the need for a
constant standing pilot light. Each surface
burner has a spark ignitor. Use care when
cleaning around the surface burner.
If the surface burner does not light, check
if ignitor is broken, soiled or wet.

ETTING THE
C
ONTROLS
Your cooktop has sealed gas burners with
automatic re-ignition. If the burner flame
should go out, the system will automatically
spark to re-ignite the burner.
1. Place a pan on the burner grate. (To
preserve the grate finish, do not oper-
ate the burners without a pan on the
grate to absorb the heat from the burner
flame.)
2. Push in knob and turn immediately coun-
terclockwise to the desired setting.
• A clicking (spark) sound will be heard
and the burner will light. (All ignitors
will spark when any surface burner
knob is turned on. However, only
the selected burner will light.)

Uses
Use Hi to bring liquid to a boil, or reach pressure in a
pressure cooker. Always reduce setting to a lower heat when
liquids begin to boil or foods begin to cook.
An intermediate flame size is used to continue cooking. Food
will not cook any faster when a higher flame setting is used
than needed to maintain a gentle boil. Water boils at the same
temperature whether boiling gently or vigorously.
Use Lo to keep foods warm and melt chocolate or butter.
Some cooking may take place on the Lo setting if the pan is
covered. It is possible to reduce the heat by rotating the knob
toward OFF. Be sure flame is stable.
