Use and Care

BURNER OPERATION

 Push in and turn the control knob counter clockwise to HIGH to start the ignition process. The igniter will spark and

make a clicking sound. The clicking will stop after the burner ignites. The initial ignition may take a few seconds. You

may hear multiple clicks before it ignites.

 After ignition, turn the knob to your desired setting.

 Turn the knob to OFF to extinguish the burner. The flame may linger for several seconds until all the gas in the feeder

tube is burned off.

 If the burner does not ignite, see the Before Calling for Service section for possible causes and

solutions.

 Burners have a re-ignite feature in case the flame is extinguished for any reason. It may take several

seconds for the burner to re-ignite.

Never operate the burner with the knob set between the HIGH and OFF position. The flame

will NOT re-ignite in this position and a gas leak could occur.

BURNER SETTINGS

 Burners can be set to any setting between LOW/SIMMER and HIGH.

 The flame should be adjusted to not wrap around the bottom edge of any pot or pan using the knob.

If the flame is set too high in relation to the edge of the pot or pan, you might scorch the backguard or

other areas around your range

Do not leave empty non-stick pans on the French Top as the heat may damage the coating and the

French Top surface.

 At the HIGH setting, flames should appear as a defined cone with a dark blue center and light blue outside. Some

yellow/orange flame may be seen depending on the type of gas and the supply line.

RING GRATES AND TOP GRATES

OPEN BURNER MODELS TIP: When placing the top grate back on the burner support, locate the sides with the raised

edges and ensure they are positioned to the left/right side of the burner. Insert the ring grate into the top grate by aligning

the small notch in the top grate with the small indents in the ring grate.

If the top grate is unsteady, remove both the top & ring grates, and adjust the four screws in the corners underneath the

top grate accordingly to even out the top grate.

SEALED BURNER MODELS TIP: When placing the top grate back on the cooktop, locate the pin on the bottom of the

grate and place inside the positioning holes of the cooktop.

Simmer Burner (some models)

The SIMMER burner gives you a choice of simmer settings from SIMMER to HIGH. The SIMMER setting can be used to

gently melt chocolate and hold delicate sauces at low temperatures.

 For the lowest simmer setting, push in and turn the knob to HIGH to ignite the burner, then turn counter clockwise to

the SIMMER setting on the knob.

o For burners without the SIMMER setting marked on the control knob, push in and turn the control knob to

HIGH to initially ignite the burner, then turn the knob counterclockwise past the LOW indicator until the knob

stops.

 For best simmer results only use the simmer burner. To locate the simmer burner on your range, reference the

burner configurations in this manual. The simmer burner is located in the back left position of most ranges.
