AutomaticIgnition
Yoursurfaceburners arelighted
byelectric ignition,eliminatingthe
need forstandingpilotlightswith
constantlyburning flames.
In case ofapower outage, youcan
lightthe surfaceburners onyour
rangewith amatch. Hold alighted
matchtothe burner, then tur~the
knobto the LITE position. CJse
extreme caution when lighting
burnem this way.
Surfaceburners in use when an
electricalpower failureoccurswi.
continueto operate normally.
surface Burner Controk

Knobsthatturn the surfaceburners
on and off are located on thelower
controlpanei and are marked asto
which burners theycontrol.
To Light asurface Burner
Push the control knob in and turn
it to LITE. Youwill hear alittle
clicking noise—thesound ofthe
electric spark igniting the burner.
I
After theburner ignites, turn the
knob to adjust the flame size.
NorRnalb~~rneroperation:
Whenaburneris firstturnedon,
youmayhear ablowingor hissing
soundfor30 to45 secondsor until
theburner heatsup.This normal
soundisdue to improvedinjection
ofgasandair intotheburner. Put a

burner when the burner is first
turned on. Ablowing or hissing
sound may be heard.
Flame willstabilize and curve
upwar~ after aburner heats up or
30 to 45 seconds after it is turned
on. The biowing or hissing sound
will stop.
After lighting aburner:
@Check to be sure the burner you
turned on is theone youwantto use.
~Do notoperate aburner for an
extendedperiod of time without
cookware on the grate. The finish
on the grate may chip without
cookware to absorb the heat.
~Be sure the burners and grates are
cool beforeyou place your hand, a
pot holder, cleaning cloths or other
materials on them.
The flamesizeonagas burner
shouldmatch thecookwareyou
are using.
NEVER LET THE FLAME
EXTEND UP THE SIDESOF THE
COONARE. Anyflamelargerthan
thebottomofthecookwareis wasted
andordyservestoheatthehandles.
When using aluminum or
aluminum-clad stiinless steel
poti and pans, adjustthe flame so
the circle it makes isabout 1/2inch
smallerthan the bottomofthe
cookware.
Whenboiling9usethis same flame
size—1/2inch smaller than the
bottomofthe coolcware—nomatter
whatthecookwareismade of. Foods
cookjust as quickly at agentleboil
as theydo at afurious rollingboil.
Ahighboil creates steam and cooks
awaymoisture, flavorand nutrition.
Avoidit except forthe fewcooking
processeswhichned avigorousboil.
When frying or warming foods
in sminless stee19cast iron or
ename~ware, keep the flame down
lower—toabout 1/2the diameter
of the pan.
When frying in gIass or ceramic
eoohme, lowertheflameevenmore.

Beforecleaninganypart ofyour

the surface with clean waterand

occasionallyapply athin coat of
mild cleaning waxto help protect
the finish.
There are anumber ofprecautions
youcan take to avoidmarring the
surface ofthe range and toprevent
it from becoming dull. Don’tslide
heavypans across it. If you spill
foodswith alot of acid (tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruitjuices, etc.)or
foodswith high sugar content,
clean them up as soon as possible.
If allowedto remain, these foods
could cause adull spot. Also, no
matter howstubborn the food stain,
never use harsh abrasive cleansers.
They could permanently damage

Toget rid ofburned-on food, soak
the gratesin aslightlydiluted

Althoughthey’redurable, tl~e
grates will gradually lose their
shine, regardlessofthe best care
youcan give them. This is due to
their continualexposure to high
temperatures,
Do notoperate aburner for an
extendedperiod of time without
