Setting Surface Controls
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one
to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a guide for
determiningproper flame sizefor varioustypesof cooking.Thesize andtypeof
utensilused andthe amountof food beingcooked willinfluence thesetting needed
forcooking.
*Flame Size Type of Cooking
HighFlame Start most foods, bring water to a boil or pan broiling.
MediumFlame Maintain a slow boil, thicken sauces, gravies or steaming.
LowFlame Keep foods cooking, poach or stewing.
For deep fat frying,use a thermometer & 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 or cook properly.
Neverextendtheflamebeyondtheouter
edgeoftheutensil.Ahigherflamesimply
wastes heat and energy, and increases
your risk of being burned by the flame.
*Thesesettingsarebasedonusingmedium-weightmetal or aluminumpanswithlids.Settingsmayvarywhenusingothertypes
of pans. The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear blue & nearly invisible in a well-lighted
room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.
CORRECT
INCORRECT
Operating the Gas Surface Burners:
1. If the Cooktop Lockout indicator light is ON, unlock the cooktop (some models). If your

2. Place cooking utensil on gas surface burner.
3. Push the surface control knob in & turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position.
4. Release the knob & rotate to the LITE position. Note: All four electronic surface ignitors

5. Visually check that the burner has lit.
6. Push the control knob in & turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size. The control
knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the guides & adjust the flame as
needed. DO NOT cook with the surface control knob in the LITE position (The electronic
ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position).
NOTE: In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually.
To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface
control knob to LITE. After burner lights push in and turn knob to desired setting. Use
caution when lighting surface burners manually.

For general cleaning, use a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent & water or a 50/50 solution
of vinegar & water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry & polish with a soft cloth.
Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth 1st. DO NOT spray liquids directly on the
control pad and display areas. DO NOT use large amounts of water on the control panel - excess
water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT use other liquid
cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or some paper towels - they will damage the finish.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF & remove the control knobs. To
remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Use the general cleaning instructions provided in the
paragraphabove.
Clean burner grates, broiler pan & insert in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not
removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of
clean water & ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel
for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled
scouring pad. Rinse & wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may
become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the range top.

Remove racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven Controls.
Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following the cleaner’s recommendations. Rinse with clean water &
let dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a
small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the oven rack
positions).
Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides & front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO NOT immerse the door in
water. DO NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents. DO NOT
use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of
the oven door. DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven
material, on Self-Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage or remove this gasket.
Clean stainless steel with hot soapy water & a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a cloth.
DO NOT use cleaners with high conecentrations of chlorides or chlorines. DO NOT use harsh
scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are especially made for cleaning stainless
steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners form the surface as bluish stains may occur during
heating that cannot be removed.
