IMPORTANT • Do not cook with the surface control knob left in the LITE position. The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the control knob setting remains in the LITE position. • When setting any surface control knob to the LITE position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the surface burner you are setting will ignite. • Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking areas at the same time. This can cause uneven heating results. • In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. Use caution when lighting surface burners 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. • When operating the oven, it is possible for residual heat from the oven to build-up and over time to eventually transfer to the surface control knobs located directly above the oven door. • Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the range cooktop. • Do not place aluminum foil or any material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt they may permanently damage the cooktop surface. SETTING SURFACE BURNERS Operating the gas surface controls 1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner. 2.
