Push the control knob down and turn it
counterclockwise to the desired position from
HI to LO or simmer (SIM).
After the burner ignites, turn the knob in either
direction to adjust the flame size.
To turn a burner off, turn the knob clockwise,
as far as it will go, to the OFF position.
• All of the burners can be used for both general
cooking and simmering.
• The X-High setting is intended for use with 10 ″
or larger cookware.
• Do not operate a 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
cloth or other materials on them.
• The indicator light on each knob verifies the
burner is “ON”; however, it should not be a
substitute for visually checking the flame
at the burner.
• Be sure you turn the control knob to “OFF”
when cooking is complete.
Using Your Cooktop
Gas Cooktop
Electronic
ignition &
relight The surface burners are lit by electronic ignition.
All burner igniters make clicking sounds and
spark even when only a single burner is being
turned on. Do not touch any of the burners when
the igniters are clicking.
The burners on this cooktop relight
automatically if the flame goes out. This helps
prevent the inconvenience of having to manually
relight a burner.
Occasionally, the burners may spark if excess
wind or draft blows the flame away from the
burner’s flame sensor.
In case of a power outage, you can light the
surface burners on your cooktop with a match.
Hold a lighted match to the burner; then turn the
knob to the HIGH position. Use extreme caution
when lighting burners this way.

How to
select
flame size Watch the flame, not the knob, as you
reduce heat.
The flame size on a gas burner should match the
cookware you are using.
FOR SAFE HANDLING OF COOKWARE, NEVER
LET THE FLAME EXTEND UP THE SIDES OF THE
COOKWARE. Any flame larger than the bottom of
the cookware is wasted and only serves to heat
the handle.
NOTE: The X-High setting produces an extra
large flame. Use 10
″ or larger diameter
cookware when using high heat settings.
