Cooktop
• After turning on a surface burner, make sure that the burner has ignited even if
the knob LED is on. Adjust the level of the ame by turning the burner knob.
• Always turn off the surface burner controls before removing cookware. All
surface burner controls should be turned OFF when you are not cooking.
• Always turn the burners off before you go to sleep or go out.
• If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and call a qualied service
technician. NEVER use an open ame to locate a leak.
• If the LED on the control knob doesn't go on when the surface burner has ignited,
call a qualied service technician.
• If the knob LED illuminates, but the surface burner does not ignite, turn off the
control knob immediately.
Cookware
Requirements
• Flat bottom and straight sides
• Tight-tting lid
• Well-balanced with the handle weighing less than the main portion of the pot or
pan.
Material characteristics
• Aluminum: An excellent heat conductor. Some types of food may cause the
aluminum to darken. However, anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and
pitting.
• Copper: An excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.
• Stainless steel: A slow heat conductor with uneven cooking performance but is
durable, easy to clean, and resists staining.
• Cast-Iron: A poor conductor but retains heat very well.
• Enamelware: Heating characteristics depend on the base material.
• Glass: A slow heat conductor. Use only glass cookware that is specied for range
top cooking or oven use.
Size limitations
CAUTION
• Do not place a small pan or pot with a
bottom diameter of about 6 inches or less
on the center grate. This cookware may tip
over. Use the rear burners for this small-
sized cookware.
* : 6 inches or less
• Always make sure cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the cooktop
and not over other surface burners. This will minimize the chance of burns,
spillovers, and the ignition of ammable materials that can be caused if pots or
pans are bumped accidently.
• When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for range top cooking.
• Never leave plastic items on the cooktop. Hot air from the vent can melt or ignite
plastic items or cause build up of dangerous pressure in closed plastic containers.
You may get severe burns if you touch the surfaces near the vent while the oven
is operating.
• Make sure you hold the handle of a wok or a small one-handled pot while
cooking.
Wok grate
Woks are often used for stir frying, pan frying, deep frying, and poaching. The
provided wok grate supports 12” to 14” woks.
1. Turn off all burners, and wait until the
grates completely cool down.
2. Place the wok grate on either side grate.
3. Put a wok on the wok grate. Make sure
the wok settles on the wok grate.
4. Turn on the burner, and adjust the ame
level as appropriate.
