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 under-
sized 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 eciency.
Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware with
food on the cooking area before turning it
on. Turn the cooking area o before re-
moving the cookware.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of dierent sizes. Select cookware with flat
bottoms that match the surface unit heat-
ing element. The use of undersized cook-
ware may expose a portion of the flame to
direct contact and may result in the igni-
tion of clothing or other items. Using the
proper cookware on the cooking areas will
improve eciency.
Always turn knob to the full LITE position
when igniting top burners. Visually check
that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame
so it does not extend beyond the edge of
the utensil.
To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of the utensil should be positioned
so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface burners
Never leave surface burners unattended
at high heat settings — Boil overs cause
smoking and greasy spill overs that may
ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may
melt.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain
types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceram-
ic,earthenware, or other glazed utensils
are suitable for cook top service without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cook top use.
When you are flaming foods under a venti-
lating hood, turn the fan on.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEAN-
ING YOUR APPLIANCE
CAUTION
Before manually cleaning any part of the
appliance, be sure all controls are turned
o and the appliance is cool. Cleaning a
hot appliance can cause burns.
Clean the appliance regularly to keep all
parts free of grease that could catch fire.
Do not allow grease to accumulate. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire.
Always follow the manufacturer’s rec-
ommended directions for use of kitchen
cleaners and aerosols. Be aware that ex-
cess residue from cleaners and aerosols
may ignite causing damage and injury.
Clean venitlating hoods frequently -
Grease should not be allowed to accumu-
late on hood or filter. Follow the manu-
facturer’s instructions for cleaning vent
hoods.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Gas surface burner types
The cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners
with dierent BTU ratings. The ability to heat food
quickly and in large amounts increases as the burn-
er size increases.
• Small burners are best used for low-flame heat-
ing of small amounts of food.
• Standard burners can be used for most surface
cooking needs.
• The largest burner is best used for bringing
large quantities of liquid rapidly up to tem-
perature or when preparing larger quantities
of food. The large burner is located at the right
front position on the cooktop.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that
is suitable for the amount and type of food being
prepared. Select a burner and set the flame size
appropriately for the pan. Never allow flames to
extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.

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.
Assembly of the Burner Caps
Make sure that all of the surface burner caps and
surface burner grates are installed correctly and at
the correct locations.
1. Remove all packing material from the cooktop
area.
2. Make sure burner head and caps are properly
placed on the surface burners.
Important: The burner head has a hole which fits
over the ignitor. Make sure the head fits snugly be-
fore placing the burner caps.
Note: Unpack the burner grates and position them
on the cooktop after the burner heads and caps are
properly installed.

10 BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Cookware Material Types
The cookware material determines how evenly and
quickly heat is transferred from the surface ele-
ment to the pan bottom. The most popular materi-
als available are:
• Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some
types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized
aluminum cookware resists staining and pit-
ting).
• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discol-
ors easily (see Aluminum).
• Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven
cooking results. Durable, easy to clean, and
resists staining.
• Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor, but will re-
tain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking
temperature is reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating charac-
teristics will vary depending on base material.
• Glass - Slow heat conductor.
IMPORTANT
Do not place empty aluminum, glass, or por-
celain-enamel coated cookware on the burner.
The melting point of cookware made with these
materials may be reached quickly, especially if left
empty. If the cookware melts it will damage the
cooktop. Follow all the cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations for use and care of cookware.
IMPORTANT
NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over
two dierent surface cooking areas at the same
time. Incorrect use may damage the cooktop.
Using Proper Cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence
the heat setting needed for best cooking results.
Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
proper cookware as illustrated in “Figure 2: Testing
cookware” and “Figure 3: Proper cookware”.
Check for flatness by ro-
tating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware
(see “Figure 2: Testing
cookware”). Cookware
should have flat bot-
toms that make good
contact with the entire
surface of the heating
element.
• Flat bottom and straight
sides.
• Tight fitting lids.
• Weight of handle does
not tilt pan. Pan is well
balanced.
• Pan sizes match the
amount of food to be
prepared and the size
of the surface element.
• Made of material that
conducts heat well.
• Easy to clean.
• Always match pot
diameter to element
size.
• Curved and warped pans.
• Cookware larger than
element by more than
one-half inch or 12mm.
• Heavy handle tilts pan.
• Pan is much smaller
than the element.
