COOKTOP USE
Cooktop Controls
Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when 
control knobs are turned to IGNITE.
Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. 
Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or while the grate 
is unoccupied.
To Set:
1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to IGNITE.
All 4 surface burners will click. Only the burner with the 
control knob turned to IGNITE will produce a flame.
2. Turn knob to anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Use the 
following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and 
the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach 
or rust removers.
Power™ Burner (on some models)
The left front burner is designed to give ultra-high power when it 
is fully on. It can be used to rapidly bring liquid to a boil and to 
cook large quantities of food.
ACCUSIMMER
®
 Burner (on some models)
The right rear burner has an adjustable heat setting for more 
precise simmering and low temperature cooking.
Power failure
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit 
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob 
counterclockwise to IGNITE. After burner lights, turn knob to 
setting.
Cooktop Lockout 
The Cooktop Lockout prevents unintended use of the surface 
burners. When the cooktop is locked out, the surface burners 
cannot be turned on by the control knobs.
When power is first supplied to the range, or if the range loses 
power, the surface burners will be in the Cooktop Lockout 
position. The surface burners cannot be activated until power is 
restored to the range and (or) the Cooktop Lockout is 
disengaged. Also, cooktop burners will be in the Cooktop 
Lockout position during the self-clean cycle.
To Lock/Unlock Cooktop:
Before using, turn all control knobs to OFF. Press and hold the 
Cooktop Lockout icon keypad for 3 seconds. A single tone will 
sound, and “Loc On” and a cooktop icon will appear on the 
display. After 3 seconds the clock display will reappear.
Repeat to unlock cooktop. “Loc OFF” will appear on the display 
for 3 seconds, and the cooktop icon will disappear from the 
display.

IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and 
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
