In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface 

burners can be lit 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 

turn the knob to desired setting. Use caution when 

lighting surface burners manually.

Never extend the fl ame beyond the outer edge of the 

utensil. A higher fl ame simply wastes heat and energy, 

and increases the risk of being burned by the gas 

fl ame.

1.  Place cooking utensil on surface burner.

2.  Push the surface control knob down and turn 

counterclockwise out of the OFF position.

3.  Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position 

(see fi gures 1 & 2). Note: All four electronic surface 

ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the 

burner you are turning on will ignite.

4.  Visually check that the burner has a fl ame.

5.  Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the 

desired fl ame size. The control knobs do not have to 

be set at a particular setting. Use the knob indicator 

settings to adjust the fl ame as needed. DO NOT cook 

with the surface control knob in the LITE position. 

(The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the 

knob is left in the LITE position.)

For most cooking - start on the highest control

amount of food being cooked will infl uence the setting

of the fl ame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A 

good fl ame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-

lighted room. Each cone of fl ame should be steady and 

sharp. Clean burner if fl ame is yellow-orange.
