9IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE

LOCAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTOR’S USE.

INSTALLER: LEAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE

UNIT FOR THE OWNER.

OWNER: PLEASE RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR

FUTURE REFERENCE.

WARNING

When properly cared for, your new appliance has been

designed to be safe and reliable. Read all instructions

carefully before use. These precautions will reduce the

risk of burns, electric shock, fire and injury to persons.

When using kitchen appliances, basic safety precautions

must be followed including those in the following pages.

WARNING

TIP OVER HAZARD

Fire Safety

Save these instructions.

Set the burner control so that the flame does not extend

beyond the bottom of the pan.

Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to

come in contact with a hot surface element, burner or

grate. Do not allow pans to boil dry.

If the cooktop is near a window, forced air vent or fan, be

certain that flammable materials such as window

coverings do not blow over or near the burners or

elements. They could catch on fire.

Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.

Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may

ignite.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A GREASE FIRE:

Never leave surface units unattended at high settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that

may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or

when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries

Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be

allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

Use proper pan size. Always use cookware

appropriate for the size of the surface element.

In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,

drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.

Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires

with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.

Take care that drafts like those from fans or forced air

vents do not push the flames so that they extend beyond

the edges of the pan.

Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby,

highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN

THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING:

SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie

sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE

CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not

go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE

DEPARTMENT.

NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be

burned.

DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or

towels – a violent steam explosion will result.

Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and

you already know how to operate it.

- The fire is small and contained in the area where it

started.

- The fire department is being called.

- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system

during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach through fire

to turn it off.

A child or adult can tip the

range over and be killed.

Install the anti-tip device

to the structure and/or the

range. Verify the anti-tip

device has been properly

installed and engaged.

Engage the range to the

anti-tip device. Ensure the

anti-tip device is re-

engaged when the range

is moved.

Re-engage the anti-tip device if the range is moved.

Do not operate the range without the anti-tip device

in place and engaged.

See installation instructions for details.

Failure to follow the instructions in this manual can

result in death or serious burns to children and

adults.

Check for proper installation and use of the anti-tip

bracket. Carefully tip the range forward pulling from

the back to ensure that the anti-tip bracket engages

the range leg and prevents tip-over. The range

should not move more than 1” (2.5cm).

9IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Gas Safety

To prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block

appliance air vents.

Have the installer show you where the gas shut-off valve

is located.

For proper burner performance, keep igniters clean and

dry.

If a burner goes out and gas escapes, open windows

and doors. Wait until gas dissipates before using the

appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: Burning gas cooking fuel

generates some by-products which are on the list of

substances which are known by the State of California to

cause cancer or reproductive harm. To minimize

exposure to these substances, always operate this unit

according to the instructions contained in this booklet

and provide good ventilation.

WARNING

All igniters spark when any single burner is turned on. Do

not touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in use.

If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper job

of checking for leaks. If the connections are not perfectly

tight, you can have a small leak and, therefore, a faint

smell. Finding a gas leak is not a “do-it-yourself”

procedure. Some leaks can only be found with the

burner control in the ON position and this must be done

by a qualified service technician. See Warning on

page 4.

WARNING

To prevent flare-ups all grates must be properly

positioned on the cooktop whenever the cooktop is in

use. Each of the feet must be placed into the

corresponding dimples in the cooktop. Do not use a

grate if the rubber feet are missing or damaged.

Keep the igniter ports clean for proper lighting

performance of the burners. It is necessary to clean

these when there is a boilover or when the burner does

not light even though the electronic igniters click.

WARNING

To prevent flare-ups do not use the cooktop without all

burner caps and all burner grates properly positioned.

WARNING

Do not clean or touch any of the burners when an extra

low burner (if equipped) is in use. When the extra low

burner automatically reignites the ignitor at the burner will

spark.

WARNING

Use this appliance only for its intended use as described

in this manual. NEVER use this appliance as a space

heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in

carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating the

appliance. Never use the appliance for storage.

WARNING

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven

bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as

aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven

and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum

foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

Burn Prevention

DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR

UNITS - Surface units may be hot even though they are

dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot

enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not

touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable

materials contact surface units or areas near units until

they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas

are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.

Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up

of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause

injury.

Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when

necessary. To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil

slowly, on no more than a low-medium setting. Hot oil is

capable of causing extreme burns and injury.

Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer.

Wait until it is cool.

Secure all loose garments, etc., before beginning. Tie

long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear

loose-fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties,

scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.

Do not place any objects on the projecting control panel

in front of the burners. The area becomes very hot during

cooking.

Child Safety

When children become old enough to use the appliance,

it is the responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to

ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by

qualified persons.

Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on

any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming

drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the

appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing

severe injury.

Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely

supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be

left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance

is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its

vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.

9IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

Items of interest to children should not be stored in an

appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the

backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach

items could be seriously injured.

CAUTION

To avoid the risk of suffocation: Do not allow children to

play with packaging material. Store small parts safely as

they can be a choke hazard.

Cleaning Safety

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe

Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the

Governor of California to publish a list of substances

known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn

customers of potential exposure to such substances. The

burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil

during self-cleaning can generate some by-products

which are on the list. To minimize exposure to these

substances, always operate this unit according to the

instructions contained in this booklet and provide good

ventilation.

WARNING

Burning gas cooking fuel may create small amounts of

carbon monoxide, benzene and formaldehyde. To

minimize exposure to these substances, the burners

should be adjusted by a certified installer or agency to

ensure proper combustion. Ensure proper ventilation with

an open window or use a ventilation fan or hood when

cooking with gas. Always operate the appliance

according to the instructions in this manual.

After a spill or boilover, turn off the burner and allow the

cooktop to cool. Clean around the burner and burner

ports. After cleaning, check for proper operation.

Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some

cleaners produce noxious fumes when applied to a hot

surface. Wet clothes and sponges can cause burns from

steam.

Cookware Safety

Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food.

This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan.

Use Proper Pan Size.

The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of

the heating element or burner to direct contact and may

result in ignition of clothing. Select cookware having flat

bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating unit.

This appliance is equipped with one or more surface

units of different sizes. Proper relationship of cookware to

heating element or burner will also improve efficiency.

Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not

extend over adjacent work areas, burners, or the edge of

the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires, spills and

burns.

Adjust burner flame size so that it does not extend

beyond the edge of the cookware. Proper relationship of

cookware to burner flame reduces safety risks.

Proper Installation and Maintenance

Have the installer show you the location of the circuit

breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

This appliance must be properly installed and grounded

by a qualified technician. Connect only to properly

grounded outlet. Refer to Installation Instructions for

details.

Burner Cap Placement

Sealed burners

Your new cooktop has sealed gas burners. There are no

burner parts under the cooktop to clean, disassemble or

adjust. Your cooktop has three different burner sizes:

small, large and dual-flame.

9WARNING

To prevent flare-ups, do not use the cooktop without

all burner caps and all burner grates properly

positioned.

9WARNING

To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps

orgrates while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow

the burners to cool.

The burner parts must be correctly positioned for the

cooktop to function properly. If the burner parts are not

correctly positioned, one or more of the following

problems may occur:

▯Burner flames are too high.

▯Flames shoot out of burners.

▯Stainless steel discolorations.

▯Burners do not ignite.

▯Burner flames light unevenly.

▯Burner emits gas odor.

Burner Parts

The burner caps must be properly placed for the cooktop

to function properly.

Burner Cap and Burner Base Placement

After electrical connection is complete, place each

burner base on the corresponding location on the

cooktop. One of the three bars on the burner base

should line up with the notch and prevent the base from

rotating. The small hole or cutout near the edge should

also line up with the igniter. Pay special attention to avoid

damaging the igniter during installation of the base. See

Illustration below.

Once each base is located and resting evenly, place

each burner cap on its correct burner base. See

Illustration.

Do not swap burner caps. These will affect the stability of

the flame and make the burner impossible or difficult to

light. The smallest burner cap marked "DUAL" is to be

used exclusively on the Dual-flame burner. Do not put it

on the small burner.

@Thermocouple

Place burner cap gently on top of base so that the

prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of

the burner cap.

If the maintop is removed by a certified installer (for

example to check electrical or piping connection) the

panhead screws that were removed must be re-installed

to ensure proper functionality of burners.

Checking Burner Cap Placement

Check to make sure that there is no gap between the

burner cap and burner base. See illustration below for

correct and incorrect placements of the burner cap.

You may gently try to move the burner cap from side to

side to check if it is properly placed. If properly placed,

the cap will click from side to side as the prongs hit the

groove ridge.

Operating the cooktop

Before Using the Appliance for the First Time

▯Remove all packing materials and literature from the

cooktop surface.

▯Wipe with a clean, damp sponge and dry.

▯There may be a slight odor during the first several

uses. This is normal and will disappear.

▯Optimum cooking results depend on the proper

cookware being selected and used. See “Choosing

Cookware - Cookware Recommendations”.

▯Read all safety precautions and Use and Care Manual

information prior to operating.

About the Appliance

Use the cooktop for surface cooking applications such

as boiling, frying, simmering, steaming and sautéing.

9WARNING

The burning of gas cooking fuel can create small

amounts of carbon monoxide, benzene,

formaldehyde and soot. To minimize exposure to

these substances, the burners should be adjusted

by a qualified installer or authorized servicer to

ensure proper combustion. Ensure proper

ventilation with an open window or use a ventilation

fan or hood when cooking with gas. Always operate

the unit according to the instructions in this manual.

Control Knobs

The cooktop has one control knob for each burner. Push

in and turn to the left to light and set the desired heat

setting.

9WARNING

Failure to operate knobs properly may result in

personal injury and damage to the appliance.

The cooktop has standard burner controls.

To operate

Select the appropriate control knob, push in and turn

counterclockwise to the desired flame setting. With this

motion, burner sparking and gas flow will be initiated.

Keep the knob pressed and once the flame appears

keep the knob pressed in fully for 2-3 seconds before

releasing and adjusting the flame.

Turn off by turning the control knob clockwise to off.

Notes

▯It is normal that sparks will appear at all burners.

▯The symbol on the control knobs indicates the

position recommended for igniting the burner.

In Case of Power Failure

In the event of a power failure, the burners may be lit by

an alternate flame source. Hold a lit flame source next to

the burner gas exit ports, turn corresponding knob to

max position, and remove flame source immediately

upon burner lighting.

Flame Failure Safety System

Your rangetop is equipped with a safety system that cuts

off the gas flow in case of flame extinguishes by

accident, i.e. because of a strong draft or high amount of

spillage – so preventing an escape of unburned gas.

This systems requires certain burner start procedure, see

above, which means that the knob has to be pressed in

completely for some seconds until the thermocouple at

burner is heated up by flame and keeps the gas flow.

Normal Operation - Electronic Ignition

The cooktop uses electronic igniters to light the burners.

There is no pilot light. Each burner has its own igniter. All

igniters are activated when a control knob is pushed.

9CAUTION

To avoid possible injury or damage to the

appliance, ensure grates are installed exactly per

installation instructions and not backwards or

upside down.

The igniter should be clean and dry for proper operation.

▯Avoid getting water or food on the igniter.

▯If the igniter is wet or soiled, it may spark without

igniting the burner, or even spark continuously when a

flame is present.

Note: If the burner does not light within 4 seconds, turn

the burner off. Check to see that the burner cap is

positioned correctly on the burner base and the igniter is

clean and dry. Wait at least 5 minutes before igniting the

Griddle

To cook most foods on the griddle, the surface must be

pre-heated. The burner power may require adjustment if

the griddle is used for a long time.

Before First Use

Before using your new griddle, wash it in hot, soapy

water, rinse and dry.

Installing the Griddle

The griddle is customized to fit only on the grates

illustrated below.

9WARNING

Place and remove the griddle only when all grates

and the griddle have cooled down and all burners

are off.

Typical flame characteristics

The burner flame should be blue in color and stable with

no yellow tips, excessive noise or fluttering. It should

burn completely around the burner cap.

Checking the flame characteristics:

▯If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, verify that

the regulator is set for the correct fuel. Retest after

adjustment.

▯Some yellow streaking is normal during the initial start-

up. Allow the appliance to operate for 4–5 minutes

and reevaluate before making adjustments.

▯Foreign particles in the gas line may cause an orange

flame during initial use. This should disappear with

use. Check the burner to make sure that port holes are

not obstructed. If the ports are clogged ~ Page 31

Note: An audible "pop" may be heard when the burner is

turned off manually. The "popping" may be louder with

propane gas than with natural gas. This is normal.

ning.

Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance

Cooking suggestions for best results

▯Boil water in covered pot on High using largest burner

for best results. If water boils over, turn to a lower

setting.

▯When melting chocolate or butter, use smallest burner

with a water bath for best results.

▯When simmering, bring food to a boil first. Stir well to

be sure all the food is boiling, then cover and reduce

the flame to the desired setting to simmer.

▯There should be steam and slight quivering of the

liquid’s surface while simmering.

▯Use a lid to keep a more constant cooking

temperature and heat food faster.

▯Check the food occasionally to see if the control knob

should be turned to a lower or higher setting.

▯It is normal to stir food occasionally.

▯Center the pan over the burner before turning the

burner on.

▯Use proper cookware.

▯Refer to the settings recommendations in the following

chart for suggested settings.

Settings recommendations

Standard Burner Cooking

The table lists the optimal heating setting for various

dishes. The temperature and cooking time depend on

the amount, composition and temperature of the food.

Notes Regarding Cookware

The following information and tips have been provided to

help you save energy and avoid damaging your

cookware.

Suitable Cookware

Pans with a diameter of less than 4.7” (120 mm) or

more than 11.0” (280 mm) should not be used. If you do

use larger pans, these should not protrude beyond the

edges of the appliance.

Cookware Recommendations

Note: When using certain pots or pans, a slight and

temporary deformation of the steel cooking surface may

occur. This is normal and does not affect the functionality

of the appliance.

Proper Cookware

▯Aluminum or copper bottomed pans conduct heat

evenly.

▯Steel pan, if not combined with other metals, may cook

unevenly.

▯Cast-iron cookware absorbs heat slowly and cooks

more evenly at low-to-medium settings.

▯Flat heavy bottoms pans provide even heat and

stability.

▯DO NOT USE pans that are thin, warped, dented or

ridged as they heat unevenly.

Information for Use

Burner Recommended pan base diameter

Small burner 5” - 8” (127- 203 mm)

Large burner 7” - 91/2” (178- 240 mm)

Dual-flame

burner 7” - 11“ (178- 280 mm)

Use cooking vessels of

appropriate size for the

particular burner.

Don't use small cooking

vessels on large burners.

The flame shouldn't come

in contact with the sides of

the cooking vessel.

Don't use any deformed

cooking vessels that don't

stand solidly on the

cooktop. The vessels could

tip over.

Only use cooking vessels

with flat and thick bottoms.

Don't cook without a lid or

if the lid is not on all the

way. The majority of the

heat is lost.

Place the cooking vessel in

the center of the burner,

otherwise it may tip over.

Don't place large pots on

the burners near the stove

controls. They could

overheat and become

damaged.

Place the pots on the pan

supports, never directly

onto the burners.

Prior to use, ensure that

the pan supports and lids

of the gas burners are

positioned correctly.

Handle vessels carefully on

the cooktop.

Don't bang the cooktop

and don't place any heavy

weights on it.

Never heat a cooking

vessel (e.g. roasting tin,

pan, cooking stone) with

multiple burners, except of

the griddle plate. The

resulting accumulation of

heat causes damage to the

appliance.

Cleaning and Maintenance-Cooktop

Cleaning

The entire cooktop can be safely cleaned by wiping with

a soapy sponge, then rinsing and drying. If stubborn soil

remains, follow the recommended cleaning methods

below.

Cleaning recommendations:

▯Always keep the appliance area clear and free from

combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable

vapors and liquids.

▯Always use the mildest cleaner that will do the job.

Use clean, soft cloths, sponges or paper towels.

▯Rub stainless steel finishes in the direction of the

grain. Wipe area dry to avoid water marks.

▯Before cleaning, be certain the burners are turned off

and the grates and burners are cool.

▯Do not clean removable cooktop parts in any self

cleaning oven or dishwasher.

▯Do not obstruct air flow around cooktop burners,

range backguard and door area.

▯After cleaning, place all parts in their proper positions

before using cooktop.

▯For proper burner performance, keep igniters clean

and dry.

▯Keep the igniter ports clean for proper lighting

performance of the burners. It is necessary to clean

these when there is a boilover or when the burner

does not light even though the electronic igniters click.

▯Do not use flammable cleansers such as lighter fluid.

▯Do not use chlorine based cleaners.

▯Always test cleaners on a small inconspicuous area

first.

9CAUTION

All igniters spark when any single burner is turned

on. Do not touch any of the burners when the

cooktop is in use.
