This includes paper, plastic, and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plastic ware, and towels, as well as flammable liquids.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING • Stepping, leaning, or sitting on the door or drawers of this appliance can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to the appliance. • Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover and entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP CAUTION Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency. Know which knob or key controls each surface heating area. Place cookware with food on the cooking area before turning it on.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the manuals. All other servicing should be done only by a qualified technician. This reduces the risk of personal injury and damage to the appliance. Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent, or manufacturer about problems or conditions you do not understand.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS 9 Gas surface burner types The cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners with different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quickly and in large amounts increases as the burner size increases. • Small burners are best used for low-flame heating of small amounts of food. • Standard burners can be used for most surface cooking needs.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Using Proper Cookware CAUTION • Do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other material to enter the gas orifice holder opening. • Always keep the burner caps and burner heads in place whenever the surface burners are in use. • Never place flammable items on the cooktop. Once in place, you may check the fit by gently sliding the burner cap from side to side (Figure 3) to be sure it is centered and firmly seated.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS 11 Cookware Material Types Install Burner Grates The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are: To install burner grates, place the grates flat-side down and align them into the cooktop recess.. The grates have tabs that interlock, so it is important to place the center grate first. • Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Locations of the Gas Surface Burners Setting a surface burner: 1. The SIMMER burner is best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc. 1. 2. The STANDARD sized burners are used for most surface cooking needs. Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner grate. Be sure the cooking utensil rests stable on the burner grate. 2. Push the burner’s surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (Figura 9). 3.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS CAUTION Do not place flammable items such as plastic wrappings, spoon holders, or plastic salt and pepper shakers on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface burners. NOTES • When setting a surface control knob to the lite position, all of the electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the surface burner you are setting will ignite.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Using the Griddle (included) Home Canning The reversible griddle is ceramic-coated cast iron. Use non-stick cooking spray or oil as needed. Slowly preheating the griddle ensures even heat distribution for best cooking results. Be sure to read and observe all the following points when home canning with your appliance.
