ELECTRONIC IGNITERS:
If a burner does not light or re-ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If all the igniters are not clicking, turn off the
burner. Check the circuit panel for a blown fuse or a tripped circuit breaker. If one burner is not lighting, see
page 9 for cleaning instructions.
BURNER EFFICIENCY:
It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters clean for proper lighting and efficient performance. The
burner flame should burn completely around the burner with no excessive noise or lifting. The flame should be
blue in color and stable with no yellow tips.
FLAME HEIGHT:
The correct height of the flame mainly depends on the size of the bottom
of the cooking utensil, the material of the cooking utensil, the amount
and type of food and the amount of liquid in the utensil. Following are
some basic rules for selecting flame height.
■ For safety reasons the flame must never extend beyond the bottom of the
cooking utensil.
■ Never allow flames to curl up the side of the pan.
■ Utensils which conduct heat slowly (such as glass-ceramic) should be
used with medium to low flames. If you are cooking with a large amount
of liquid a slightly larger flame can be used.
BURNER GRATES:
The cast iron burner grates are fully porcelain coated for long life and
rust prevention. Hi-Temperature cushions allow the grate to rest softly on
the cooktop without scratching. The grates are designed for easy sliding
of pots across the grate tops. They were designed in interlocking sections
to make them safer, easier to remove and clean. For additional cleaning
tips see the care and maintenance section.
