COOKTOP USE

Cooktop Controls

IMPORTANT: Your range is factory-set for use with Natural gas. If

you wish to use LP gas, an LP Gas Conversion Kit is included

with your new range. See the “Gas Conversions” section of the

Installation Instructions for details on making this conversion.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when

control knobs are turned to Light.

The large burner (12,000 Btu/h [British Thermal Units]) provides

the highest heat setting, and is ideal for cooking large quantities

of food or liquid, using large pots and pans. The small burners

(9,200 and 5,000 Btu/h) allow more accurate simmer control at

the lowest setting, and are ideal for cooking smaller quantities of

food, using smaller pots and pans.

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate.

Do not operate a burner while using empty cookware or without

any cookware on the grate.

NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does

not ignite, listen for a clicking sound. (The clicking sound will

continue until the knob is moved from Light.) If you do not hear

the igniter click, turn the burner off. Check for a tripped circuit

breaker or blown household fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the

valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained

repair specialist.

To Set:

1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LIGHT.

All four surface burners will click. Only the burner with the

control knob turned to Light will produce a flame.

2. Turn knob anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Use the

following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

Power Failure

Surface Burners

In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit
