SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
ublish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other re roductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of otential ex osure to such substances.
Gas a liances can cause minor ex osure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused rimarily by the incom lete combustion of natural gas
or LP fuels. Pro erly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize
incom lete combustion. Ex osure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an o en
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

SURFACE BURNERS
Use ro er an size—avoid ans that are unstable or easily ti ed. Select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid s illovers, make sure cookware is large enough
to contain the food ro erly. This will both save cleaning time and revent hazardous accumulations of
food, since heavy s attering or s illovers left on range can ignite. Use ans with handles that can be
easily gras ed and remain cool.
■Alway u e the LITE po ition when igniting the

open flame when lifting cookware. Do not u e
a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot
holder.
■When u ing gla cookware, make ure it
i de igned for top-of-range cooking.
■To minimize the po ibility of burn , ignition
of flammable material and pillage, turn

tandard , re ulting in a health hazard.
■Food for frying hould be a dry a po ible.
Fro t on frozen food or moi ture on fre h

How to Light a Gas Surface Burner
Make sure all the surface burners are placed
in their respective positions.
Push the control knob in and turn it to
the LITE position.
You will hear a little clic ing noise—
the sound of the electric spark igniting
the burner.
Turn the knob to adjust the flame size.
f the knob stays at LITE, it will continue
to click.
When one burner is turned to LITE, all
the burners spark. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner
while another burner is on. An electric shock
may result, which could cause you
to knock over hot cookware.
Push the control knob in and turn
it to the LITE position.
How to Select Flame Size
For safe handling of cookware, never let the
flames extend up the sides of the cookware.
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce
heat. When fast heating is desired, the flame
size on a gas burner should match the
cookware you are using.
Flames larger than the bottom of the
cookware will not result in faster heating
of the cookware and could be hazardous.
Before Lighting a Gas Burner
■Make sure all burners are in place.
■Make sure all grates on the range are
properly placed before using any burner.
After Lighting a Gas Burner
■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.
■Be sure the burners and grates are cool
before you place your hand, a pot holder,
cleaning cloths or other materials on them.
Sealed Gas Burners
Your gas range cooktop has five sealed
gas burners. They offer convenience,
cleanability and flexibility to be used in
a wide range of cooking applications.
The smallest burner in the right rear position is
the simmer burner. This burner can be turned
down to LO for a very low simmer setting. t
provides 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
(left front) burners are the primary burners for
most cooking. These general-purpose burners
can be turned down from HI to LO to suit a
wide range of cooking needs.
The extra large burner (right front) is the
maximum output burner. Like the other four
burners, it can be turned down from HI to LO
for a wide range of cooking applications;
however, this burner is designed to quickly
bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. t has
a special POWER BOIL™setting designed to
be used with cookware 10 inches or larger
in diameter.
The center oval burner (on some models) is
for large pots/pans or for use with the griddle.
