Using Your Cooktop
WARNING
Fire Hazard
- Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan.
- Turn off all controls when not cooking.
- Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.
PROPANE GAS CONVERSION
IMPORTANT: This cooktop is factory set for use with Natural gas. If you
wish to use Liquid Propane, call a licensed professional to install the
Propane gas conversion kit (included).
PLACEMENT OF BURNER HEADS AND CAPS
- All burner caps and burner bases should be properly installed BEFORE operating the cooktop. Check that the right size head and cap is on the right size burner.
- Refer to the “Assembling the Burners” section for proper burner head placement details.
LIGHTING THE BURNERS
IMPORTANT: All burners will click/spark when a knob is pushed in. A burner will light only if the knob is pushed in and then turned counterclockwise to “Ignite”.
- Surface burners use electric igniters. When the cooktop control knob is turned to “Ignite” position, a spark is used to light the burner. This sparking will continue between the “Ignite” and “Hi” positions.
To light the burners
- Push in the knob.
- Turn the knob counterclockwise to “Ignite”. Wait until you see a flame.
- Turn the knob anywhere between Hi and Lo to the desired setting.
