USING THE GAS SURFACE BURNERS
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
BEFORE LIGHTING A GAS BURNER
• Make sure all burners are in place.
• Make sure all grates on the range are properly
placed before using any burner.
AFTER LIGHTING A GAS BURNER
• Do not operate the burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the grate.
The finish on the grate may chip without
cookware to absorb the heat.
HOW TO LIGHT A GAS SURFACE BURNER
• Make sure all the
surface burners are
placed in their
respective positions.
• Push the control knob
in and turn it to
the LITE position.
• 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 not attempt to disassemble
or clean around any burner while another
burner is on. An electric shock may result,
which could cause you to knock over
hot cookware.

Push the control knob
in and turn it to
the LITE position.
• Be sure the burners and grates are cool before
you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning
cloths or other materials on them.
IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE
In case of a power failure, you can light the gas
surface burners on your range with a match.
Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in and
turn the control 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.
SEALED GAS BURNERS
Your gas range
cooktop has five
sealed gas burners.
They offer
convenience,
cleanability and
flexibility to be
used in a wide
range of cooking
applications.
The smallest burners
are in the right rear and
center positions. These burners can be turned
down to LO for a very low simmer setting. They
provide precise cooking performance for delicate
foods such as sauces or foods that require low
heat for a long cooking time.
The medium (left rear) and the large (left front)
burners are the primary burners for most cooking.
These general-purpose burners can be turned
down from HI to LO to suit a wide range of
cooking needs.
The extra large burner (right front) is the maximum
output burner. Like the other four burners, it can be
turned down from HI to LO for a wide range of
cooking applications.
This burner is also designed
to quickly bring large
amounts of liquid to
a boil. It has a special
SUPER BOIL
™
setting
designed to be used with
cookware 10 inches or
larger in diameter.
