Setting Surface Controls
Your cooktop may be equipped with any 
combination of the following burners:
Simmer Burner: best used for simmering delicate 
sauces, etc.
Standard Burner: used for most all surface cooking 
needs.
Large Burner: best used when bringing large 
quantities of liquid to temperature and when 
preparing larger quantities of food.
Regardless of size, always select a utensil 
that is suitable for the amount and type of food 
being prepared. Select a burner and fl ame size 
appropriate to the pan. Never allow fl ames to 
extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Your cooktop is also equipped with 270° rotation 
fl ame control valves. These valves provide 
enhanced control of the burner fl ame. Each burner 
lights automatically from an electric ignitor when its 
control knob is turned to the LITE position.
To operate the surface burner:
1.  Place cooking utensil on burner.
2.  Push in and turn the Surface Control knob to 
 (LITE). For dual fl ame burner, make sure to 
keep the knob setting between the two 
 icons 
until the outer ring burner is lit. Note: All electronic 
ignitors will click at the same time. However, only 
the burner you are turning on will ignite.
3.  Visually check that the burner has lit.
4.  Turn the control knob to the desired fl ame size. The 
control knobs do not have to be set at a particular 
mark. Use the guides and adjust the fl ame  as 
needed. DO NOT cook with the Surface Control 
knob in the 
 position. (The electronic ignitor will 
continue to click if left in the 
 position, causing 
premature wear.)
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 
. Use caution when 
lighting surface burners manually.
The griddle is intended for direct food cooking 
and can be used on both sides. Do not use pans 
or other cookware on the griddle. Doing so could 
damage the fi nish. With the grate in position over 
the burner, set the griddle on top of the grate 
positioning the notches in the griddle over the grate 
fi ngers (refer to fi gures 1 for optimal positioning).

Do not place plastic items such as salt and 
pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic 
wrappings on top of the cooktop when it is in 
use. 
These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, 
towels or wood spoons could catch fi re if placed 
too close to a fl ame.
Always place the griddle on the grate before 
lighting the burner.
Always use potholders to remove the griddle 
from the grate. Allow the griddle to cool 
before removing. Do not set hot griddle on 
surfaces that cannot withstand high heat; 
such as countertops.
Be sure the griddle is positioned correctly 
and stable before use to prevent hot spills 
and possible burns.
