TO PREVENT THE
COOKTOP FROM
DISCOLORING OR STAINING:
> Clean cooktop after each use.
> Wipe acidic or sugary spills as
soon as the cooktop has cooled
as these spills may discolor the
porcelain.
Unlike a range with
standard gas burn-
ers, this cooktop
does not lift-up nor
is it removable. Do
not attempt to lift
the cooktop for any reason.
SEALED BURNERS
The sealed burners of your range are
secured to the cooktop and are not de-
signed to be removed. Since the burn-
ers are sealed into the cooktop,
boilovers or spills will not seep under-
neath the cooktop. However, the burn-
ers should be cleaned after each use.
(See page 11 for cleaning directions.)
HIGH PERFORMANCE
BURNER (12,000 BTU*)
(Select Models) ['--7 POWER
This burner offers [.--_ BOOST
higher speed cooking that can be used
to quickly bring water to a boil and for
large-quantity cooking.
* BTU ratings will vary when using LP
gas.
BURNER GRATES
The grates must be properly posi-
tioned before cooking. Improper in-
stallation of the grates may result in
chipping of the cooktop.
Do not operate the
burners without a pan
on the grate. The
grate's porcelain fin-
ish may chip without a
pan to absorb the heat
from the burner flame.
Although the burner
grates are durable, they will gradually
lose their shine and/or discolor, due to
the high temperatures of the gas
flame.
A properly adjusted burner with
clean ports will light within a few
seconds. If using natural gas the
flame will be blue with a deeper
blue inner cone.
If the burner flame is yellow or is
noisy the air/gas mixture may be
incorrect. Contact a service tech-
nician to adjust. (Adjustments are
not covered by the warranty.)
With LP gas, some yellow tips on
the flames are acceptable. This
is normal and adjustment is not
necessary.
If the control knob is turned very
quickly from HIGH to LOW, the
flame may go out, particularly if
the burner is cold. If this occurs,
turn the knob to the Off position,
wait several seconds and relight
the burner.
With some types of gas, you may
hear a "popping" sound when the
surface burner is turned off. This
is a normal operating sound of
the burner.
The flame should be adjusted so
it does not extend beyond the
edge of the pan.
