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 without 
cookware on the grate.
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.
NOTE: On some models, the cooktop will not operate when the 
range is in a self-cleaning mode.
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 right front burner or both front burners (on some models) are 
designed to give ultra-high power when fully on. They 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
Ranges With Cooktop Lockout
IMPORTANT: The cooktop will automatically be locked:
When power is first supplied to the range.
When power is restored after a power failure.
When “PUSH”/“OFF” is blinking on the display.
To Clear the Automatic Cooktop Lockout
1. Press OFF/CANCEL.
2. Set the clock.
Ranges Without Cooktop Lockout
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
(on some models)
The Cooktop Lockout helps to avoid unintended use of the 
surface burners. If a control knob is turned to Ignite when the 
Cooktop Lockout is on, you will hear clicking and you may see 
the igniter sparking, but the burner will not light.
To Lock the Cooktop:
1. Turn all surface burners to the OFF position.
2. Press and hold the NIGHT LIGHT/COOKTOP LOCKOUT 
keypad for 3 seconds.
A single tone will sound. “Loc,” “LOCKED,” and the cooktop 
icon will appear in the display.
To Unlock the Cooktop:
1. Turn all surface burners to the OFF position.
2. Press and hold the NIGHT LIGHT/COOKTOP LOCKOUT 
keypad for 3 seconds.
A single tone will sound. “Loc OFF” will be displayed for 
3 seconds. “LOCKED” and the cooktop icon will disappear 
from the display.
