USING THE COOKTOP

COOKTOP SURFACE

Selecting A Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you increase or reduce
heat.
The flame size on a gas burner should match the
cookware you are using.
FOR SAFE HANDLING OF COOKWARE, NEVER
LET THE FLAME EXTEND UP THE SIDES OF THE
COOKWARE. Any flame larger than the bottom of the
cookware will not result in faster heating and could be
hazardous.
Stove Top Grills
Do not use an after-market stove top grill on your gas
surface burners. A stove top grill will cause incomplete
combustion resulting in carbon monoxide levels above
allowable standards. This could be hazardous to your
health.

it can be a fire hazard. Clean under the griddle with hot,
soapy water as soon as it is cool.

over the left burners of the cooktop. To position the griddle,
place the griddle on top of the left grate. Adjust the griddle
until it is fully seated and sitting flat on the grate below. Do
not turn on the left burners until you are certain the griddle
has been positioned correctly.
