Undersized utensils may expose a portion of the burner and flame, the may result in the combustion of fabric or clothing if they make contact with the flame. Using correctly sized pots or pans will improve efficiency and safety.
• Do not use stove top grills on a sealed gas burner, doing so may cause incomplete combustion and this may result in carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Please memorize the knobs and their corresponding burners which they control. Always place a pan on the burner before starting a flame. And always turn of the burner before removing pan.
• Always turn the knob all the way to the “Light” mark when igniting the top burners, always then check to see if flames are visible, ensuring that the burner is then lit.
• Do NOT face pot or pan handles outward, they should always be facing inward but not directly over another flame. This practice can reduce the risk of serious burns, spillage, or even the combustion of flammable items or materials; in the event there is accidental contact with the handle.
• Do NOT leave the top burners on a high heat setting unattended, the failure to supervise can result in a boil over which can cause smoke, or a grease fire.
• Protective Sheets: Never use aluminum foil to cover the burner pans, unless suggested by this manual. The improper use or installation of these sheets and liners can increase the risk of electrical shock or fire.
• NEVER use a searing grill on cooktop: searing grills are not designed for use on this hob, the utilization of a searing grill can cause a fire.
• NEVER USE A DECORATIVE BURNER COVER: In the event that a burner is turned on accidentally, the covers could become too hot, could possibly melt or combustion. The can also result in damage to the hob from overheating and can cause ignition and combustion problems.

How to Light Top Burners

WARNING: Top cover must be open when main burner is in operation. Based on safety considerations, the top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.

Lighting TOP burner with match:

1. Make sure and check that ALL knobs are turned to the OFF position before lighting with match
2. Ensure the main gas valve is in the open position
3. Rotate the appropriate burner knob counterclockwise to “HI” position. (Fig. 9)
4. PROMPTLY position an extended lit wooden match, or use an extended butane lighter, through the grate spaces, nearest the burner port, to light the burner. Repeat steps 4 & 5 to light desired burners {Fig. 10)
5. To Adjust to the desired flame, push and rotate the burner control knob {Fig. 11)

Igniting Gas Hob Electronically:

1. Ensure all control knobs are in their OFF positions
2. Ensure the main gas tank valve is ajar
3. Turn the desired control knob counterclockwise to HI setting, DO NOT LIGHT more than one burner simultaneously
4. Immediately after the control knob is set, turn the ignition knob clockwise multiple times or until the burner lights.

Turning the gas hob flame OFF:
To turn the burner flame off, push and turn the control knob clockwise until the knob is in the OFF position. If you travel and need to refuel your gas tank, ALWAYS turn the tank valve off.

Useful information on proper flame for burner: Gas burners will tend to burn blue, if the ration of fuel to air is adjusted properly.
Burner flames that burn yellow on the tip of the flame { over 1 inch) is a sign that the burner is not receiving enough air for the combustion of gas. If the tip of the flame, is more yellow in appearance, this could indicate that the burners air shutter ( or Venturi) needs to be adjusted, so that they can produce more air. Please be aware of any carbon or soot deposits that may build up on the burner as this too will affect the burners ability to cook evenly and properly.

ALWAYS PREFORM A GAS LEAK CHEACK BEFORE USING GAS HOB:
Before operating the gas hob, always preform an analysis or check for a gas leak. DO NOT use gas hob until the leak test is preformed and confirmed there are no gas leak indications. Test for leaks by using between 11-13.8 WC pressure.
if there is a gas leak detected, replace the defective part recommended by the manufacturer or tighten the loose joint properly

WARNING: BEFORE TESTING FOR GAS LEAK

1. Ensure gas hob controls are in their OFF positions.
2. Never test for leaks with any open flames present
3. Do not smoke when testing for gas leaks
4. Use a soapy solution to detect gas leaks. If there are bubbles present, there is a gas leak.

WARNING: MERCHANDISE HARM RISK!

• If the control knob is set to the LIGHT position, DO NOT COOK as damage may occur to the ignition module and the burner electrodes
• DO NOT LET children or pets play near, at, or around gas hob. Be cautious as cooktop can tip/fall if pulled. ALWAYS check cooktop before setting temperature.
• DO NOT USE cookware that exceeds 1 inch larger than the burner grate. If oversized cookware is used, this may cause extreme heat build-up and may result in destruction to the burner grate, burner, and/or cooktop (maximum pan size= 10 inches)
• DO NOT USE any cooking pan, griddle, or any cooking instrument that covers more than one burner at any time. Maximum pan size is a 10 inch skillet. Any cooking instrument larger than 10 inches, is strictly prohibited. If this instruction is not followed, results may cause large amounts of heat that could result in the liquefying of the item or could result in damage to the burner grates or cooktop.
• Leaving an empty or boiled dry cooking utensil on a hot burner, could result in damage to the cooking utensil or could result in serious damage and/or fire. Remove all pans/cooking utensils, when not in use.
