Using your cooktop.
Use a flat-bottomed wok,.
Wok This Way
We recommend that you use a flat-bo_omed
wok, available at your local retail store.
Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used. Do
not use a flat-bottomed wok with a wok holder.
Do not use a flat-bottomed wok on a support
ring. Placing the ring over the burner or grate
may cause the burner to work improperly,
resulting in carbon monoxide levels above
allowable current standards. This could be
dangerous to your health.
Cookware
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly
and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an
aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight
fitting lids when cooking with minimum
amounts of water.
Enomelwore: Under some conditions, the
enamel of some cookware may melt. Follow
cookware manufacturer's recommendations
for cooking methods.
Gloss: There are two types of glass cookware:
those for oven use only and those for cooktop
cooking (saucepans,coffee and tea pots).Glass
conducts heat very slowly.
Cost Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will
give satisfactory results.
HeotproofGIoss-Ceromic: Can be used for
either surface or oven cooking. It conducts
heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check
cookware manufacturer's directions to be sure
it can be used on a gas cooktop.
Stoinless Steel'. This metal alone has poor
heating properties and is usually combined
with copper, aluminum or other metals for
improved heat distribution. Combination metal
skillets usually work satisfactorily if they are
used with medium heat as the manufacturer
recommends.
Stove Top Grills
Do not use stove top grills on your sealed
gas burners. If you use the stove top grill on
the sealed gas burner it will cause incomplete
combustion and can
result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards. This can
be hazardous to your health.
Using the downdruft vent system.

How to Operate the Downdraft Vent System
The built-in vent system helps remove
cooking vapors, odors and smoke from
foods prepared on the cooktop.
Turn the vent fan speed control knob to HI,
NED or LO, as needed.
Continuous use of the vent system while
cooking helps keep the kitchen comfortable
and less humid, reducing cooking odors
and soiling moisture that normally creates a
frequent need for cleaning.
The appearance of the burner flames
may be affected when the vent fan is
operating. At the high fan speed setting, it
is normal for the nearby burner flames to
be drawn toward the vent grille. If cooking
performance is affected, use a lower fan
speed setting.
IN CASE OF A POWER FAILURE, THE
VENTILATION SYSTEM WILL NOT OPERATE.
