SURFACE COOKING
Surface Burner Controls
The knobs that turn the surface burners on and off are
Iocated on the control panel in front of the burners.
The two knobs on the left control the left front and
left rear burners. The two knobs on the fight control
the right front and fight rear burners.
Before Lighting a Burner
• If drip pans are supplied with your range,
they should be used at all times°
° Make sure all grates on the range are in place
before using any burner°
On ranges with sealed burners:
• The smaller burner (right rear position) wil! give
the best simmer results. It offers precise cooking
performance for delicate foods, such as sauces or
foods which need to cook over low heat for a
long time. It can be turned down to a very low
simmer setting.
• The fight front burner is higher powered than the
others and will bring liquids to a boil quicker_
To Light a Surface Burner
Push the control knob in
and turn it to LITE. You
will hear a little "clicking"
noise--the sound of the electric
spark igniting the burner.
Turn the knob to adjust the
flame size° If the knob stays at
LITE, it will continue to click°
When one burner is turned to LITE, all the burners
spark° Do uot attempt to disassemble or clean around
any burner while another burner is om An electric
shock may result, which could cause you to knock
over hot cookware_
In case of a power failure, you can light the
surface burners on your range with a match. Hold
a lighted match to the burner, then turn the knob to
the LITE position° Use extreme caution when
lighting burners this way.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power
failure occurs will continue to operate normally_
After Lighting a Burner
• Do not operate a burner for an extended period of
time without cookwareon the grate. The finish on the
grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
• Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you
place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or
other materials on them.
How to Select Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you 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 LIP THE SIDES OF
THE COOKWARE,
Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookwme is
wasted and only serves to heat the handle_
