Surface Burners

How to Light a Surface Burner
WARNING
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.
After Lighting a Burner
Do not operate the burner for an extended period of
time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the
grate may discolor or chip without cookware to absorb
the heat.
Do not attempt to disassemble any burner while
another burner is on. An electric shock may result,
which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.
Use of the Surface Burners
Your gas rangetop has sealed gas burners. They offer
convenience, cleanability and flexibility for a wide range
of cooking applications.
The smallest burner is the simmer burner. On some
models, the center burner of the triple flame burner
provides an additional simmer burner. A simmer burner
turned down to LO provides precise cooking performance
How to Select Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When
rapid heating is desired, the flame size on a burner
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.
Replacing the 9V Battery
CAUTION
and cause burn injury, if recharged, disposed of in
fire, inserted backwards, or missassembled.
When a knob is turned to the LITE position, sparking
will occur at the burners. A weak battery will cause
the amount of time between sparks to increase. If the
time between sparks exceeds one second, replace
the battery. If a surface burner doesn't light within five
seconds, turn gas off and wait one minute for gas to
dissipate before attempting to light again.
On some models, a Battery Level indicator light is

Burners should be operated
Battery may explode or leak
You will hear a clicking noise—
the sound of the electric spark
igniting the burner. When one
burner is turned to LITE, all
burners will spark. Sparking will
continue as long as the knob
remains at LITE. Once gas is
ignited, turn the knob to adjust
the flame size.
Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you
place your hand, a pot holder or cleaning materials on
them.
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.
These flames are too
large for the pot
located to the left of the burner
knobs. This light will glow as
the burners are being lit if the
battery has enough power. If this
indicator light fails to glow during
sparking, the battery power level
is low and the battery should be
replaced soon.
IMPORTANT: Replace with
standard 9V alkaline battery.
Follow all state and local
requirements for disposing of
the old battery.
Push the control knob in and
turn it to the LITE position.
