•Begin by ensuring proper installation and grounding of the appliance by a
qualified technician according to the accompanying Installation Instructions.
Have the installer show you where the fuse or junction box is located so that you
know how and where to turn off power. Also, have the installer show you the
location of the gas supply. If you smell gas, do not use the appliance.
Immediately turn off the gas supply at the shut off valve, disconnect electrical
power to the appliance at the fuse or junction box and contact the gas supplier or
qualified appliance technician.
•Ensure that the appliance is used only by those individuals who are able to
operate it properly.
•Use the appliance only for cooking tasks expected of a home appliance as
outlined in this manual.
•Properly clean and maintain as recommended in this manual, cleaning only the
parts listed.
•Use only dry potholders to avoid steam burns when removing hot cookware.
•In the event that a burner flame goes out and gas escapes, open a window or
door. Wait at least 5 minutes before attempting to use the cooktop.
•Select utensils of the proper size, material and construction for the particular
type of cooking being done. Select utensils that are large enough to contain food
without boil-over or spillover. Choose pans with easily grasped handles that will
stay cool while cooking. Do not use utensils with loose handles. Avoid using
pans that are too heavy to lift safely. Use cookware only for its intended purpose.
Certain types of glass, ceramic, and earthenware utensils are suitable for use
only in an oven and not in cooktop applications.
•When cooking, set the burner controls so that the flame heats only the bottom of
the utensil and does not extend up the sides of the utensil.
•When deep fat frying, be certain that the pan is large enough to contain the
desired volume of food without overflow caused by bubbling of the fat. Never
leave a deep fat fryer unattended. Avoid deep fat frying of moist or frost-covered
foods. Foods with high water content may cause spattering or spilling of the hot
fat. Heat fat slowly and stir together any combinations of oils and fats prior to
applying heat. Utilize a deep fat frying thermometer to avoid heating the fat to
temperatures above the flash point.
•Always turn pan handles to the side or back of the cooktop. Do not turn handles
towards the room where they are easily hit. Handles should not extend over

PROPER BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment.A good flame is clear,
blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady
and sharply defined.Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean
burner, see instructions under Care & Cleaning.
BURNERLOCATIONS
All Electrolux Icon range cooktops are equipped with
sealed burners. See Figure 2 for a detailed burner
layout for your model.

12 CooktopFeatures
SEALED BURNER CONFIGURATION
On ICON all-gas ranges, there are a total of four (4) or six (6) burners, all rated with
a maximum of 15K btu.Additionally, all burners are equipped with a slow simmer
setting rated at 620 btu.
On ICON 36” all-gas ranges (Model EGF76GPS), there is a central griddle rated at
18.5K btu. The same 15K btu top burners are equipped with the low simmer
settings of 620 btu on this model.
BURNER BASE, HEAD & CAPS
The burner heads spread the flame evenly around the burner perimeters. The
burner heads must seat properly in the burner bases to enable proper cooktop
operation. To ensure proper seating, the burner heads are keyed using a hole
which aligns with the ignitor.
BURNER IGNITERS
A burner igniter is located on each gas burner base. When a control knob is
rotated more than 90 degrees counterclockwise, the igniter will spark and the
selected burner will ignite.Additionally, due to the automatic re-ignition feature, the
igniters will spark automatically if a flame should blow out or be severely distorted
by a draft or by a ventilation system. Burner igniters must always be kept clean and
dry to function properly. Dirty or wet igniters will result in constant sparking, even if
there is a flame present. See Figure 3.

CONTROL KNOBS
The control knobs provided with this cooktop are designed for ease of use and
longevity. The “D” shaped design of the knob shaft ensures proper orientation when
reinstalling the knob. Located beneath each knob is a bezel ring that mounts to the
control panel.
PLACEMENT OF BURNER GRATES
Place grates on the spill tray. See Figure 4. Be sure they are
located correctly inside the stainless steel frame.
FLAME ADJUSTMENT
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower
one to complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for determining
proper flame size for various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used
and the amount of food being cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.
For deep fat frying,use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob
accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the
fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be
undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the
food will neither brown nor cook properly.
*Flame Size Type of Cooking
HighFlame Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling
MediumFlame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam
Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stew
*These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans
with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame
simply wastes heat and energy, and increases your risk of being burned by
the flame.

USING THE WOK STAND
The Wok Stand provided with your cooktop is designed to allow round-bottomed
woks to be used. It is recommended that you use a 14 inch diameter (35.5
cm) or less Wok. Also, using the front burners with the wok stand will produce
the best results. If properly positioned, the Wok Stand will not slide off the grate.
To Properly Position the Wok Stand:
With the grate in position over the burner, set the Wok Stand on top of the grate
positioning the center of the Wok Stand over the center of the cooktop grate fingers
(See Figure 10).
Flat-bottom woks with large flat
bottoms may also be used on your
cooktop Surface Burner Grates
without the Wok Stand. Insure the
stability of the flat-bottom wok
before cooking without the Wok
Stand. If unstable, DO NOT use the
flat-bottom wok without the Wok

18 Operation
OPERATING THE CONTROL VALVES
To light a particular burner, press in on the corresponding control knob, then
immediately rotate the knob counter clockwise
from the “OFF” position to the “hi” position.
The burner igniters will spark continuously
until the gas ignites on the selected
burner. The igniters will stop sparking as
soon as the burner ignites.
Once the burner is lit, reduce the flame height if
desired by rotating the control knob further
counterclockwise, then place the utensil on the
grate.
Figure 12
Burner Control Valve
Ensure that the range has been installed by a qualified individual who has tested
the operation of the cooktop and oven in accordance with the Installation
Instructions. The burner rings, burner caps, grates, and knobs must be in place
for the cooktop to operate properly. All cooktop components must be clean. Be
certain that the gas and electrical power supplies to the range are operational.
Read this Use and Care Manual in its entirety prior to operating the cooktop and
oven.
Your range is equipped with burners which allow high, standard, and simmer
cooking.
Simmer Setting Burner: best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc.
Standard Setting Burner: used for most all surface cooking needs.
Always select a utensil that is suitable for the amount and type of food being
prepared. Select a flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend
beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Your cooktop is also equipped with 240° rotation flame control valves. These valves
provide enhanced control of the burner flame. Each burner lights automatically
from an electric igniter when its control knob is turn counter clockwise from the
“OFF” position to the “hi” position.

•If the gas does not ignite within four seconds, turn off the valve. Allow at least two
minutes for any gas to dissipate, then repeat the lighting procedure.
•Burner igniters must always be kept clean and dry to function properly. Due to
the re-ignition feature, dirty or wet igniters will result in constant sparking, even
if there is a flame present. Additionally, igniters will spark automatically if the
flame is distorted by a draft or by a cooktop ventilation system. Eliminate the
draft or reduce the ventilation blower speed in this case.
•When the cooktop is cool and/or more than two burners are in use, the igniters
may continue to spark if the control knob is set to the “LOW” position. This is
normal until the burner warms up. The tendency to spark under these conditions
can be reduced by operating the burner at a higher flame setting for a short
period of time (normally 60 seconds or less), then adjusting the control knob
down to the “LOW” setting. The burner will also warm up faster if a utensil is
placed on the grate.
•The flame should be steady and blue in color. Foreign material in the gas line,
especially in new construction, may cause an orange cooktop flame during
initial operation. This will disappear with further use.
•The flame should burn evenly around the perimeter of the burner. If the flame is
uneven, ensure that the burner base, heads and caps are properly positioned,
then check for any foreign material in the burner ring or on the burner cap.
Remove any foreign material with a straightened paper clip, wire, or needle. Do
not use a toothpick to remove clogs, as it could break off. Do not damage or
distort the shape of the burner ring ports.
•Never light the burners with a match or other open flame. If a burner does not
ignite, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide.

Potholders, towels or wood spoons could catch fire if placed too close to a flame.

20 Operation
SETTING THE BURNER FLAME HEIGHT
Setting the proper burner flame height for the desired cooking process and
selected utensil will result in superior cooking performance, while also saving time
and energy. Follow these recommendations for best results:
1. Use low or medium flame heights when cooking in utensils that are poor
conductors of heat, such as glass, ceramic, and cast iron cooking vessels.
Reduce the flame height until it covers approximately 1/3 of the utensil
diameter. This will ensure even heating within the utensil and reduce the
likelihood of burning or scorching of food.
2. Reduce the flame if it is extending beyond the bottom of the utensil.Aflame
that extends up the sides of the utensil is potentially dangerous, heats the
utensil handle and kitchen instead of the food, and wastes energy.
3. Reduce the flame height to the minimum level necessary to perform the
desired cooking process. Remember that food cooks just as quickly at a
gentle boil as it does at a vigorous, rolling boil. Maintaining a higher boil than is
necessary wastes energy, cooks away moisture, and causes a loss in food
flavorand nutrientlevel.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• Always use utensils with flat, smooth bottoms and tight-fitting lids to retain
heat and moisture.
• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
• Select cookware of the proper size, material and construction for the cooking
process being performed.
• Adjust the flame height to fit the utensil size.
• After liquid reaches a boil, reduce the heat to maintain a simmer rather than a
rollingboil.
• Use a timer rather than repeatedly removing the lid to check food.
• Thaw foods prior to cooking to reduce cooking time.
