14 HOW TO USE In Case of Power Failure: In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface burners on your range with a match. Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally. 1 Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in the control knob. 2 Turn the control knob to the "Lo" position. CAUTION Use extreme caution when lighting burners with a match. It can cause burn and damage. Top-of-range 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. Cast-Iron If heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results. Stainless 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 work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the manufacturer recommends. Enamelware Under some conditions, the enamel of this cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer's recommendations for cooking methods. Glass There are two types of glass cookware - those for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking. Heatproof Glass Ceramic 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 gas ranges. Using a Wok: If using a wok, it is recommended that you use a 14-inch or smaller flat-bottomed wok. Make sure that the wok bottom sits flat on the grate. Use a flat-bottomed wok. CAUTION DO NOT use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards. This can be hazardous to your health. Using Stove-top Grills: Do not place stove-top grills on the burner. CAUTION DO NOT use stove top grills on your surface burners. Using a stove top grill on the surface burner will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your health.
