Setting Surface Burner Controls
Setting the Burners
1. Place cooking utensil on
surface burner.
2. Push the surface control
knob down and turn
counterclockwise out of
the OFF position (See
Figures 1&2).
3. Release the knob and
rotate to the LITE
position.
4. Visually check that the
burner has a ame.
5. Once the burner is
lit, continue to turn
counterclockwise to the
desired ame size. The
control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting.
Use the knob indicator settings to adjust the ame as
needed.
Important notes:
DO NOT cook with the surface control knob left in the
LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark
if the control knob setting remains in the LITE position).
When setting any surface control knob to the LITE
position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the
same time. However, only the surface burner you are
setting will ignite.
NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over two
di erent surface cooking areas at the same time. This
can cause uneven heating results.
Do not place items such as aluminum
foil, salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These
items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wood spoons
could catch re if placed too close to a ame.
Manual Lighting
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold
a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface
control knob to LITE. After burner lights push in and turn
knob to desired setting. Use caution when lighting surface
burners manually.

DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped
with a metal ring that extends beyond
the burner unit. Because this ring traps
heat, the surface unit and cooktop
surface could be damaged.
Using a Wok (not supplied)
Woks with at bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop
are available in most cookshop or hardware stores. Round-
bottomed woks (with a support ring that does not extend
beyond the burner unit) may also be used. The metal ring
was designed to support the wok safely when it is lled with
large amounts of liquids (soup making) or fat (frying).
Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets. Cookware bottoms must
be in direct contact with the grates.
