Surface Cooking; Surface Controls - Maytag Precision Touch Control 800 Guía De Uso Y Cuidado

• If the oven is heavily soiled, excessive flareups may result in
a fault code during cleaning. Press the CANCEL pad and
allow the oven to cool completely, wipe out excess soil, then
reset the clean cycle. If the fault code reappears, contact an
authorized servicer.
Noises may be heard.
• The oven makes several low level noises. You may hear the
oven relays as they go on and off. This is normal.

Surface Cooking

LO: Use to simmer foods, keep foods
warm and melt chocolate or butter. Some
cooking may take place on the LO setting
if the pan is covered. It is possible to
reduce the heat by rotating the knob
toward OFF. Be sure flame is stable.

CAUTION
• If flame should go out during a cooking operation, turn
the burner off. If a strong gas odor is detected, open a
window and wait five minutes before relighting the
burner.
• Be sure all surface controls are set in the OFF position
prior to supplying gas to the range.
• NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some
parts of the cooktop, especially around the burners, to
become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders to
protect hands.
Pilotless Ignition
Pilotless ignition eliminates the
need for a constant standing
pilot light. Each surface burner
has a spark ignitor. Use care
when cleaning around the
surface burner.
If the surface burner does
not light, check if ignitor is
broken, soiled or wet.

than needed to maintain a gentle boil.
Water boils at the same temperature
whether boiling gently or vigorously.

settings is available from LO to HI. At the HI setting a detent
or notch may be felt. The knobs can be set on or between any
of the settings.

turned past the LITE position.
