PROBLEM SOLVER
If you experience
Recommended Solutions
Nothing will 
operate
Check the following:
Make sure the power supply cord is plugged 
into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If 
the problem continues, call an electrician.
Make sure the cooktop is properly connected 
to the gas supply. Contact a service technician 
or refer to the installation instructions.
Burners will not 
operate
If this is the first time the cooktop is being used, turn on any one of the burner knobs to release air from the gas lines.
Be sure the control knob is pushed in before turning to a setting.
A burner port (hole) may be clogged or the igniter may need cleaning. Refer to “Cleaning the Burner: Tips” in the “Key 
Usage Tips” section.
Check that the burner base and caps are positioned correctly. Refer to “Placement of Burner Heads and Caps” in the “Key 
Usage Tips” section.
Burner flames are 
uneven, yellow 
and/or noisy
Compare the flame to the illustrations below. If the flames look like A, call 
for service. Normal flames look like B or C. If LP (propane) gas is being 
used, the cooktop may have been converted improperly. Contact a service 
technician or refer to the “Assistance or Service” section in the Use and 
Care Guide.
A burner port (hole) may be clogged. Refer to “Cleaning the Burner: Tips” 
in the “Key Usage Tips” section.
Check that the burner caps are positioned correctly. Refer to “Placement of Burner Heads and Caps” in the “Key Usage 
Tips” section.
When a knob is 
pushed, all 
burners spark
Sparking/clicking of all the burners is normal operation. A burner will light only if the knob is pushed in and turned to the 
 
position. 
Burner is making a 
popping noise
If the burner is wet or dirty, clean and/or let the burner dry.
Excessive heat 
around the 
cookware on 
cooktop
Be sure the cookware is approximately the same size as the cooking area and surface burner. 
Cookware should not extend more than ½" (13 mm) outside the cooking area. 
Adjust the flame so that it does not wrap around the cookware.
Cooking results 
are not what 
expected
Check the following:
Be sure the proper cookware is being used. Refer to the “Cooking with Your Cooktop” section.
Check the heat level. Refer to “Excessive heat around the cookware on cooktop.”
Check the level of the cooktop. Refer to the Installation Instructions.
Flame too High or 
too Low
Ensure the cooktop gas supply is correct (LP or Natural gas). These cooktops come from the factory set for Natural gas.
Refer to the Installation Instructions to verify that the pressure regulator is installed correctly and the line pressure and the 
gas line pressure are correct.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
