Operation of Uniform Hot-Top Section
Each control knob can be turned to OFF or to any position in
the range from LOW to HIGH. When the control is set to HIGH,
the hot top surface will heat to about 700°F (370°C).
To start cooking, turn the appropriate control knob to HIGH.
Visually check that the burner ignites. The gas does NOT
automatically shut off if the burner does not ignite! If
the burner does not ignite, check and/or light the pilots (see
procedure at right). When the burner is hot, the burner ame
should appear blue and steady (some slight yellowing of the
ame tips may occur when using propane gas).
Do not waste gas and abuse equipment by leaving the
burner on HIGH all the time. Damage to the plates and
certain electronic components may occur, and MAY VOID
YOUR WARRANTY. During idle periods, turn the control to
LOW to keep the top warm.
When done cooking, turn the appropriate control knob to OFF.
(The pilot should remain lit).
Each burner has a pilot located near the front of the burner. To
light the pilots, do the following:
1. Check that the control knob is in the OFF position.
2. Turn on the gas supply to the sectional range (if not already
on).
3. Lift up a hot-top section plate.
4. Verify pilots are lit. If spark ignition system is faulty, light pilot
manually with a match or pilot lightning device.
5. Push spark ignition button for approximately 10 seconds.
6. Replace hot-top section before use.
