Lighting a Surface Burner
WARNING
Burners should be operated only
when covered by cookware. Burner flames not
covered by cookware present a risk of fire or
clothing ignition. Never let flames extend beyond the
sides of the cookware. Failure to comply may result
in serious injury.
Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and
fully assembled before attempting to operate any burner.
Select a burner and find its control knob. Push the knob
in and turn it to the LITE position.

Your rangetop has sealed gas burners that offer
convenience, cleanability and flexibility for a wide range
of cooking applications.
The smallest burner is the simmer burner. A simmer
burner turned down to LO provides precise cooking
performance for foods such as delicate sauces that
require low heat for a long cooking time.
The extra-large burner is designed to quickly bring
large amounts of liquid to a boil. Some models have a
POWER BOIL™ setting especially designed for use with
cookware with a diameter of 11 inches or larger.
Selecting a Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When
rapid heating is desired, the flame size should match the
size of the cookware you are using. Flames larger than
the bottom of the cookware will not heat faster and may
be hazardous.
