READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
IA WARNING IKEEPFLAMMABLE MATERIALSAWAY FROM THE COOKTOP
Do not store or use flammable materials near the
cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens,
wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids.
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. Avoid storing commonly used items
in cabinets above the cooktop and be careful when
iii}}i

reaching over the cooktop. Clothing in close proximity to
burners or hot surfaces may ignite causing severe burns.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials
accumulate in or near the cooktop. Grease on the
cooktop may ignite.
Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.
IA WARNINGI INTHEEVENTOFA FIRE,TAKETHEFOLLOWINGSTEPS
TO PREVENTINJURYAND FIRESPREADING:
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a
flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming
pan on a surface burner by covering the pan completely
with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat troy. If
necessary, use o multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-
type fire extinguisher.
[A WARNING1COOKTOP SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
Never leave the surface burners unattended at medium
or high heat settings. Foods, especially oily foods, may
ignite resulting in fire that could spread to surrounding
cabinets.
_::Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to
heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting
in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a
deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil
temperature.
To ovoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of
oil when shallow pan-frying and ovoid cooking frozen
foods with excessive amounts of ice.
_:: Use proper pan size and avoid pans that are unstable
or easily tipped. Select cookware that ismatched to the
size of the burner. Burner flames should be adjusted so
that they do not extend beyond the bottom of the pan.
Excessive flame may be hazardous.
Always use the LITEposition when igniting the top
burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
When usingglass/ceramic cookware, make sure itis
suitable for cooktop service;others may break because
of sudden change intemperature.
To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of
flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a
container should be turned toward the center of the
cooktop without extending over nearby burners.
When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the
fan on.
Do not use a wok with a round metal support ring. the
ring may trap heat and block air to the burner resulting
in a carbon monoxide hazard.
iii}}i
iii}i}}li_
Do not attempt to lift the cooktop. Doing so may
damage the gas tubing to the surface burners resulting
in a gas leak and risk of fire.
When disabling Gas/Control Lockout (on some models),
make sure the surface controls are set to the OFF
position. This will prevent unintended gas flow from the
burners.
iii}}i
Do not use aluminum foil to cover the grates or line
any part of the cooktop. Doing so may result in carbon
monoxide poisoning, overheating of the cooktop
surfaces, or a potential fire hazard.

control knob isset to any position other than
OFF.
Tounlock,turn the control lock knob to
UNLOCK.
/How to Light a Burner
Make surethe control lock knob isin the
UNLOCKposition.
Your cooktop burnersare lit by electric ignition,
eliminating the need for standing pilot lights
with constantly burning flames.
Pushthe control knobdown and turn it to the

when lighting burnersthis way. Burnersin use
when an electricalpower failure occurswill
continue to operate normally.
Do not operate the burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the grate.
The finish on the grate may chip without
cookware to absorb the heat.
Besurethe burners and gratesare cool
beforeyou placeyour hand, a pot holder,
cleaningcloths or other materials on them.
Sealed Gas Burners
Thesmallest burner in the right rear and the
center burner (onsome models)are the simmer
burners.These burners can be turned down
to LOor SIMMER(depending on model)for a
very low setting. They provide precise cooking
performance for delicate foods such as sauces
or foods that require low heat for a long
cooking time.
The medium (left rear)and the large (leftfront)
burners are the general-purpose burners that
can be turned down from HI to LOto suit a
wide range of cooking needs.
Dual Stack Burner (onsome models)
Theextra large right front burner has maximum
heating and precisesimmer capability. It can be
turned down from PowerBoilTM to SIMMERfor a
wide range of cooking applications.
PowerBoiF Burner (on some models)
Theextra large right front burner has special
PowerBoiF"settings.Thisfeature should only be
usedwith cookware lY' or larger in diameter,
and flames should never be allowed to extend
up the sidesof the cookware.Thisfeature is
designedto quickly bring large amounts of
liquid in pots lY' or larger in diameter to a boil.

Using the cooktopburners.
How to Select Flame Size
Forsafe handling of cookware, neverletthe
flames extend upthe sidesof the cookware.
Watch the flame, not the knob, asyou reduce
heat.Theflame size on a gas burner should
match the cookware
you are using.
Anyflame larger than the bottom of the
cookware iswasted and only servesto heat the
handle.
Use a flat-bottomed wok.
Wok This Way
Werecommend that you usea 14-inch or
smaller flat-bottomed wok. Thegare available at
gout local retail store.
Onlyaflat-bottomed wok should be used.
Hake surethe wok bottom sitsflat on the
grate.
Donot usea wok support ring.Placingthe
ring over the burner or grate may causethe
burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon
monoxide levelsabove allowable standards.
Thiscould be dangerous to your health.
Cookware
Aluminum: Hedium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly and
evenly.Host foods brown evenly in aluminum
cookware. Usesaucepanswith tight-fitting
lidswhen cooking with minimum amounts of
water.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the
enamel of some cookware may melt. Follow
cookware manufacturer's recommendations
for cooking methods.
Glass: Thereare two types of glass cookware:
those for oven useonly and those for cooktop
cooking (saucepans,coffee and tea pots).Glass
conducts heat very slowly.
Cast Iron: Ifheated slowly, most cookware will
give satisfactory results.
HeatproofGlass-Ceramic: Canbe used for
either surface or ovencooking. It conducts
heat very slowlyand cools very slowly.Check
cookware manufacturer's directions to be sure
it can be usedon o gas cooktop.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor
heating properties and is usuallycombined
with copper, aluminum or other metals for
improved heat distribution. Combination metal
cookware usuallyworks satisfactorily if it is
usedwith medium heat asthe manufacturer
recommends.
Home Canning Tips
Be sure the canner is centered over the burner.
To prevent burns from steam or heat, use
caution when canning.
Userecipes and procedures from reputable
sources.Theseare available from
manufacturers such as Ball®and Kerr and the
Department of Agriculture ExtensionService.

with cleanwater. When replacing the grates,
be sure they are positioned securely overthe
burners.
Although they are durable,the grates will
gradually losetheir shine, regardless ofthe
best careyou can give them. Thisisdue to their
continual exposure to high temperatures. You
will notice this sooner with lighter color grates.
Donot operate a burner for an extended period
