*Using the burner and griddle dials**
To use the burner and griddle dials, push in and turn counterclockwise to LITE. Hold the dial at LITE before turning to a flame setting. -
Dial halos
When a burner in use, a red halo will illuminate. If all dials are turned OFF, all halos will dim. -
**Seasoning the griddle***
1. Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any protective coating.
2. Rinse with 1 cup of water and 1/4 cup white vinegar. Dry thoroughly.
3. Pour 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil into the center of the griddle and rub over the surface. 4 Turn the dial to a medium heat setting.

5. Repeat as needed.
BURNER USE
-
Identify the desired burner and the corresponding dial.
-
Push the dial in and turn counterclockwise to LITE. Hold the dial at LITE before turning to a flame setting.
You should hear a clicking sound when setting to LITE. If no clicking sound is present, turn the dial back clockwise to OFF and refer to ‘Troubleshooting’ for advice. -
When the burner is lit, turn the dial to any setting between HI (high) and SIM (simmer).
-
When you have finished cooking, turn the dial clockwise back to OFF.
If you are using LP gas, there may be a slight extinction pop or flash at the flame spreader a few seconds after the burner has been turned off. This is normal.
If the flame is extinguished during a power failure, turn the dial back to OFF as the burner will not automatically relight and gas may accumulate.
Manual lighting
If the burner will not light after several attempts, or if there has been a
power outage, the burners can be manually lit. If you have attempted to light
the burner with the ignition, allow 1 minute for any accumulated gas to
dissipate before manually lighting.
-
Carefully hold a battery operated lighter near the desired burner.
-
Push the dial in and turn counterclockwise to LITE. Hold the dial at LITE before turning to a flame setting.
-
When the burner is lit, turn the dial to any setting between HI (high) and SIM (simmer).
-
When you have finished cooking, turn the dial clockwise back to OFF.
If you are using LP gas, there may be a slight extinction pop or flash at the flame spreader a few seconds after the burner has been turned off. This is normal.
Burner output
- All burners have the same low turn-down setting (SIM) for gentle simmering (1,300 BTU/hr). Use SIM for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, simmering soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot.
- For cooking that requires intense heat use the burners listed below. These have a higher maximum output than other burners (23,500 BTU/hr for Natural gas, 19,000 BTU/hr for LP gas).
- CPV3-485GD models: Center burner
- CPV3-488, CPV3-486 and CPV3-366 models: Front left or front right burner
- All other models: Front left burner
Use and care
-
Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boil-over causes smoking and greasy spills that may ignite.
-
Never allow flames to extend beyond cookware or curl up its sides. This could discolor and damage the utensil and you may get burned touching a hot handle.
-
Keep handles out of the way. Turn handles so that they don’t extend over the edge of the cooktop or another burner that is on.
-
Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on
a high setting. -
Make sure that all burner parts are correctly fitted. Incorrectly or incompletely assembled burners may produce dangerous flames. See ‘Replacing burner parts’.
-
Keep the burners clean. Especially after a spill or boilover, ensure the affected burners are cleaned before using them again. Food residue may clog the ignitor and the notches of the flame spreader, stopping the burner from functioning correctly. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions.
-
Check that the burner flames are regular. They should be blue with no yellow tipping, and burn without fluttering around the burner cap. If not, see ‘Troubleshooting’ for advice.
-
Use woks only with a wok ring. Wok rings can be purchased separately through your Fisher & Paykel dealer or Customer Care. To use, place the wok ring over the grates, making sure the small protrusions on its bottom straddle the grate fingers. The wok ring should be stable and unable to rotate.
GRIDDLE USE*
Before use, ensure the griddle is preheated for 15 minutes and the drip tray is in place.
-
Push the dial in and turn counterclockwise to LITE. Hold the dial at LITE before turning to a flame setting.
You should hear a clicking sound when setting to LITE. If no clicking sound is present, turn the dial back clockwise to OFF and refer to ‘Troubleshooting’ for advice. -
When the burner is lit, turn the dial to any setting between HI (high) and SIM (simmer).
-
When you have finished cooking, turn the dial clockwise back to OFF.
If you are using LP gas, there may be a slight extinction pop or flash at the flame spreader a few seconds after the burner has been turned off. This is normal.
CARE AND CLEANING
ALWAYS
- Read these instructions and the ‘Safety and warnings’ section before you start cleaning your range top.
- Before cleaning or removing any part, make sure that everything on the range has been turned off.
- Unless suggested otherwise in the chart following, allow any part to cool to a safe temperature before cleaning. If you do need to handle a warm or hot part take extreme care. Wear long protective mitts to avoid burns from steam or hot surfaces.
- Try using any cleaner on a small area first, to ensure it doesn’t stain.
NEVER
-
Use aerosol cleaners until the range top has completely cooled. The propellant substance in these cleaners could catch fire in the presence of heat.
-
Let soiling or grease accumulate anywhere on
the range top. This will make future cleaning more difficult and may present a fire hazard. -
Use any abrasive or harsh cleaners, cloths, scouring pads or steel wool. These will scratch your range and damage its appearance.
-
Use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the range.
-
Lift the black grill and griddle frames off the cook top.
