Operation of French 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 round center section will heat to about 900°F (482°C), the
ring-shaped section will heat to about 800°F (427°C), and the
outer areas will heat to about 600°F (316°C).
To start cooking, turn the 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.
When done cooking, turn the control knob to OFF. (The pilot
should remain lit).
Each 18”-wide section has one burner. The pilot is located
adjacent to the burner. To light the pilot, 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. Remove round center plate.
4. Push spark ignition button for approximately 10 seconds.
5. Verify pilots are lit. If spark ignition system is faulty, light pilot
manually with a match or pilot lighting device.
6. Replace round center plate before use.
