Remove all tape and packaging wrap before using the
cooktop. Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking
the cooktop. Never allow children to play with packaging material.
Do not remove the model/serial plate attached to the cooktop.
Proper Installation—Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified technician in accordance
with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 latest edition in
the United States, or in Canada CAN/CGA B149.1, and CAN/
CGA B149.2, and the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.
70—latest edition in United States, or in Canada CSA Standard
C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, and local code
requirements. Install and/or adjust only per installation
instructions provided in the literature package for this cooktop.
Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified technician and an
authorized repair service. Know how to shut off gas supply at the
meter and disconnect the electrical power to the cooktop at the circuit
breaker or fuse box in case of an emergency.
User Servicing—Do not repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless specifically recommended in the manuals. All
other servicing should be done only by a qualified technician. This
may reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to the cooktop.
• Never modify or alter the construction of a cooktop by
removing panels, wire covers, or any other part of the product.
Stepping or leaning on this cooktop can result
in serious injuries and may also cause damage to the cooktop. Do
not allow children to climb or play around the cooktop.
Storage on Appliance—Flammable materials should not be
stored on the cooktop, near surface burners. This includes
paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and
towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such
as aerosol cans, on the cooktop. Flammable materials may explode
and result in fire or property damage.
Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the cooktop.
Do not leave children alone—Children should not be left alone
or unattended in the area where an appliance is in use. They
should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, GRATES, OR AREAS
NEAR THESE BURNERS. Surface burners may be hot even though
the flames are not visible. Areas near surface burners may become
hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch or
let clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas until
they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the
cooktop and the surfaces facing the cooktop.
Wear Proper Apparel—Loose-fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let
clothing or other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.
Never use your appliance for warming or
heating the room.
Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires—Smother the fire
with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may
catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
Use Only Dry Pot holders—Moist or damp pot holders on hot
surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the pot
holders touch the flame or burners. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth instead of a pot holder.
Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers—Buildup of pressure
may cause container to burst and result in injury.
Know which knob controls each surface burner. Always turn the
knob to the LITE position when igniting the burners. Visually check
that the burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend
beyond the edge of the utensil.
Use Proper Flame SizeAdjust flame size so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
Do not use stove top grills on your sealed gas
burners. If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner, it will
cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon
monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be
hazardous to your health.
Use proper pan size—This appliance is equipped with one or
more surface burners of different sizes. Select utensils having flat
bottom large enough to cover the surface burner. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface burner to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to the surface burner will also improve
efficiency.
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Burners—To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be
positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over
adjacent surface burners.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
• Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High Heat
Settings—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
burner pans. Protective liners or aluminum foil may interfere with
heat and air distribution, and combustion. Damage to the
cooktop or personal injury may result.
Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If a burner is
accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot and
possibly melt. You will not be able to see that the burner is on.
Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also
be done to the cooktop or burners because the covers may cause
overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause
combustion problems.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GLASS COOKTOPS (some models):
Do Not Operate or Clean a Broken Cooktop Glass—If glass top
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.
Clean Cooktop Glass with Caution—If a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam
burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects.
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.

Liquefied Petroleum (Propane) Gas Conversion
Severe shock or damage to the cooktop may occur if the cooktop is not installed by a qualified installer or
electrician.
This appliance can be used with Natural Gas and Propane Gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with natural gas.
If you wish to convert your cooktop for use with Liquefied Petroleum (propane) gas:
- Models with Venturi (open) Burners, see the installation instructions guide for the conversion instructions.
- Models with Sealed Burners:
- For some of them, you should order the conversion kit from your local dealer or from an authorized service agency (see
Warranty). See the installation instructions for the conversion kit number.
- For others, the conversion kit is included in the packaging, if you wish to convert your cooktop for use with propane gas,
use the supplied fixed orifices located in the package containing the installation instruction, in a bag marked "FOR LP/
PROPANE GAS CONVERSION". Follow the instructions packaged with the orifices (for models with sealed burners only).
The conversion must be performed by a qualified service technician in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and all codes
and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to follow the instructions could result in serious injury or property
damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.
Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one to
complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for determining proper flame size for
various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being
cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob accordingly. If
the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will
brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too
much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.
*Flame size Type of Cooking
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.
Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam.
Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stew.
* These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with lids. Settings
may vary when using other types of pans.
Proper Burner Adjustments
The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room.
Each cone of flame should be steady and sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean burner, see
instructions under General Cleaning.
Never extend the flame
beyond the outer edge of the
utensil. A higher flame simply
wastes heat and energy, and
increases your risk of being
burned by the flame.

Setting Surface Controls
Venturi (opened) Burner Models
To Adjust Low or "Simmer" Setting (some models)
The burner flame, at low setting, can be adjusted if it is too high or too low; refer to
the installation instruction for adjustment procedure.
To Adjust Standing Pilot Model (some models)
Each burner lights automatically either an electric or a standing pilot, depending
on your model. Standing pilots must be lit initially. To light the standing pilot, open
gas supply on pilot shutoff valves (screw), lift the cooktop from the front edge and
hold a match near the pilot. Standing pilots will remain lit when the burners are
turned off; because of that, the porcelain enamel cooktop can be hot even if
burners are not used; refer to Installation Instructions for proper pilot adjustment.
Models with electric ignitors light automatically each time a control knob is turned
to the LITE position.
To operate the Surface Burner:
1. Place cooking utensil on burner.
2. Push in and turn the Surface Control knob to LITE. Note: All electronic ignitors
will click at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. After the burner lights, turn the control knob to the desired flame size. The control
knobs do not have to be set at a particular mark. Use the guides and adjust the
flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the control knob in the LITE position. (The
electronic ignitor will continue to click if left in the LITE position.)
Sealed Burner Models
Your appliance may be equipped with any combination of the following burners:
Simmer Burner, this burner is best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc.
Standard Burner, can be used for most all surface cooking needs.
Large Burner, the larger burner is best used when bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature and when preparing larger
quantities of food.
Regardless of size, always select a utensil that is suitable for the amount and type of food being
prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend
beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Each burner lights automatically from an electric ignitor each time a control knob is turned to
the lite position.
To operate the surface burner:
1. Place cooking utensil on burner.
2. Push in and turn the Surface Control knob to LITE. Note: All electronic ignitors will click
at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. After the burner lights, turn the control knob to the desired flame size. The control knobs
do not have to be set at a particular mark. Use the guides and adjust the flame as needed.
DO NOT cook with the control knob in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue
to click if left in the LITE position.)
5. To turn the burner off, turn the control knob as far as it ill go, to the OFF position.
Electric Ignition Models
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to
the burner head, then slowly turn the surface control knob to LITE. Use caution when lighting surface burners manually.
Surface burner in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally.
Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on
the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top
of the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Pot holders, towels or wood spoons could catch fire if placed
too close to a flame.

Pans should have flat bottoms. Check for
flatness by rotating a ruler across the bot-
tom. There should be no gaps between
the pan and ruler.
Note: Always use a utensil for its intend-
ed purpose. Follow manufacturer's in-
structions. Some utensils were not made
to be used in the oven or on the cooktop.
* Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may be used
but must conform to the above recommended cookware requirements.
Note: Do not use griddle over more than
one burner. That can damage your
cooktop and that can result in exposure
to carbon monoxide levels above allow-
able current standards. That can hazard-
ous to your health.

Canning Tips &
Information
1. Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with your local
Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars for
the latest canning information.
2. Use flat-bottomed canners only. Heat is spread more evenly when the
bottom surface is flat.
3. Center canner on the burner grate.
4. Start with hot water and a high heat setting to reduce the time it takes to
bring the water to a boil; then reduce the heat setting as low as possible to
maintain a constant boil.
5. It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
Prevent damage to cooktop and burner grates:
1. Do not use water bath or pressure canners that extend more than one inch
beyond the edge of the burner grate.
2. Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended
amount of time.
3. Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and
surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to avoid canning on the same burner
unit all day.
Safe canning requires that harmful micro-organisms are destroyed
and the jars are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle
but steady boil must be maintained continuously for the required time.
Canning can generate
large amounts of steam. Use extreme cau-
tion to prevent burns. Always raise the
lid to vent steam away from you.

How to Clean
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
For general cleaning, use hot soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built-up
grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60 minutes.
Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any of these materials;
they can scratch.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF and remove the control knobs. To
remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using hot, soapy water and a cloth. Be
sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when
wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to
the appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and
the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Gentle scouring with a soapy nylon pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of
clean water and ammonia. Cover difficult spots with an ammonia soaked paper towel for
30 minutes, scrub with a nylon pad and rinse with clean water. Cleaners made especially for
stainless steel or chrome are recommended. Bluish stains on these materials are caused by
overheating and cannot be removed. Remove all cleaners or the finish may be damaged
during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.
Gentle scouring with a soapy nylon pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of
clean water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked
paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and damp cloth, then scrub with
a soap-filled scoring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the
porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners
on the cooktop.
The holes in the burners of your cooktop must be kept clean at all times for proper ignition
and a complete, even flame. Clean the burner holes routinely with a small gauge wire or
needle and especially after bad spillovers which could clog these holes.
To remove and replace burner units per your model, see instructions under General
Cleaning. To clean, soak the burners in a 1:1 solution of ammonia and water for 30 to 40
minutes. For stubborn stains, scrub with soap and water or a mild abrasive cleanser and
damp cloth. Dry the burners thoroughly in a warm oven for 30 minutes. Then replace them,
making sure they are seated and level. DO NOT wash burner units in the dishwasher.
General Cleaning
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Cooktop
Before cleaning any part of the cooktop, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the cooktop is COOL. Remove spillovers and
heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the number of major cleaning later.

General Cleaning (continued)
Venturi (open) Burner Models (some models)
To Raise and Lower the Top for Cleaning
The cooktop is hinged and can be raised to clean the area underneath. Be sure all cooktop controls are turned to OFF and burner
grates are cool.
1. Remove controls knobs, burner grates and spillover bowls. Set aside.
2. Grasp the front of the cooktop and lift. Some models have a swing-up rod to support the cooktop in its raised position.
3. Clean under the cooktop.
4. Lower the top gently after lowering the support rod (some models).
5. Replace bowls, grates and control knobs.
When lowering the top, grasp the sides with fingertips only. Be careful not to pinch fingers. Also, DO NOT drop
or bend the cooktop when raising or lowering. This could damage the surface.
DO NOT turn on the burners when the cooktop is raised for cleaning. Be sure that the top is completely lowered
and securely in place before turning on the burners.
To Remove and Replace Burners
The burners on your cooktop maybe removed for cleaning. Be sure all controls are turned to OFF and burner grates are cool
before removing cooktop burner units.
To Remove Burners
1. Remove the shipping screws from the support bracket. See illustrations for location of
screws.
2. Grasp the burner head and tilt it to the right to release the tab from the burner support
(A in Figure 1).
3. Lift the end of the burner assembly. Then pull away from the front of the cooktop to
free the air shutter from the gas valve orifice (B in Figure 1).
If your cooktop is equipped with a standing gas pilot, use caution when removing burner.
The flash tube may be hot because it is located near the pilot.
Check the lighter and burner ports (Figure 2). If they are clogged, use a wire or needle to
clear them.
To remove burned-on food, soak the burners in a vinegar and water solution for
20-30 minutes. For stubborn stains, scrub with soap and water or a mild abrasive cleanser
and a damp cloth. Do not wash burners in a dishwasher.
To Replace Burners
1. Slide the air shutter over the gas valve orifice (Figure 1).
2. Lower the burner assembly and hook the tab in the slots in the burner support. Make
sure it is properly seated and level.
3. Be sure both tabs are in the correct slots, the burner sits level and straight, and the
flash tube forms a straight line from the igniter to the burner (Figure 2).
4. Replace shipping screws if desired. These screws are not necessary for the operation
of the burner. They stabilize the burner during shipping of the appliance. Retain the
screws for later use in the event the range is moved.

General Cleaning (continued)
Sealed Burner Models (some models)
Unlike the standard gas range, THIS COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can
chemically damage the ceramic- glass surface. Be sure the controls are turned to OFF. Do not use commercial oven
cleaners on any part of the cooktop. Damage to the finish or parts could result.
To Clean the Tempered-glass Cooktop (some models)
The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because the four burners are sealed, cleanups are
easy when spillovers are cleaned up immediately. To clean, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe
dry.
Correct and consistent cleaning is essential to maintaining your heat-resistant glass top. Spills and
spatters should be wiped up using a clean paper towel and sudsy water. This should be done either
as soon as possible after spill occurs, after cooking is completed, or at the latest, before using the
cooktop again. Use caution if the cooktop is hot. For heavy spills, spatter or burned-on materials, use
razor blade scraper. Hold the razor blade scraper at a 30° angle and remove food spills or burned on
food residue.
For sugary spillovers:
Sugary spills can cause pitting of your cooktop surface. Therefore, you must begin cleaning the spills
while the cooktop is still hot.
Finish the cleaning process by applying a recommended heat- resistant glass cooktop cleaning
cream. Apply cleaner with clean, damp paper towel. Rinse with a paper towel dampened with clean
water and wipe dry. Always wipe the cooktop thoroughly to avoid heating any cleaner residue.
Do NOT use the following on the heat-resistant glass cooktop:
- Abrasive plastic, nylon, metal scouring or cloth pads. They may scratch the cooktop and make it more difficult to clean later.
Always use a new, clean paper towel when cleaning the heat-resistant glass top.
- Anything that may melt (plastics, aluminum foil, sugar or food with a high sugar content).
- Heavy duty cleansers, rust or stain removers.
- Chlorine bleach, ammonia, hydrofluoric acid or any other kind of chemical cleaners. They may etch or discolor the cooktop.
- Sponges, cloths or dish towels. Always use a new, clean paper towel when cleaning the cooktop. Lint or soil remaining on the
cooktop from a cloth or sponge can burn and cause discoloration.

To Clean the Ceramic-glass Cooktop (some models) (continued)
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils
1) Aluminum foil
Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circumstances.
2) Aluminum utensils
The melting point of aluminum being much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans
are used. If allowed to boil dry, not only will the utensil be ruined, but also permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusing
or marking may affect the ceramic glass surface.
NOTE: Due to the high intensity of heat generated by the surface elements, the glass surface will turn green when the element
will be turned off. This phenomenon is normal and the glass will come back to its original white color after it has
completely cooled down. (White glass cooktops only).
Use and Care of Glass Surface
Things to Remember
1. AVOID using bleach and don’t use ammonia to clean the ceramic surface.
2. Do not put plastic items on warm cooking areas.
3. Never slide oven racks across cooktop surface. They may scratch or metalmark the cooktop.
4. If cooktop should break, do not use cooktop or attempt to clean it. Call your authorized service technician
immediately.
5. Never use a trivet or metal stand between the cooking utensil and the ceramic cooktop. The ceramic surface may be scratched,
metal marked or etched by such items.
6. Sugary spills can cause pitting of your cooktop surface. Therefore, you must begin cleaning the spills while the cooktop is still hot.
Use caution when following the steps below.
a) Turn off all surface units and remove all pans immediately.
b) Wearing an oven mitt, use a razor blade scraper to scrape the hot spill out of the cooking zone to a cooler area on the cooktop.
c) Allow the cooktop to cool.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal
markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately
after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can
become permanent if not removed prior to future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or scratch
the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do
not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook
foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan.
Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, they may cause it to crack.

Use and Care of Glass Surface (continued)
Cleaning Materials for Ceramic Glass Cooktop
Some cleaning materials may contain an ingredient which can damage the cooktop. Use recommended
materials only (see below). Cleaner cream should be used regularly. Prior to using your cooktop for the first
time, apply a cleaner cream to the ceramic surface. A sample of CERAMA BRYTE® cleaner cream is
supplied with your range. More are available in stores if needed.
Use only recommended cleaning products and follow these basic cleaning suggestions.
1. BEFORE THE COOKTOP IS USED. Thoroughly clean and saturate the cooktop with cleaner cream.
a) Dampen clean paper towel and clean unit.
b) Wipe off with another clean, damp paper towel; then wipe dry.
2. For normal daily cleaning, apply a dab of cleaner cream in the center of each unit-area to be
cleaned. Start with approximately 1/8 teaspoon. (Apply more if needed). Then, proceed as stated
above in (a and b).
3. Make sure bottom of cookware and cooking area are clean and dry.
4. Select heat settings and cookware large enough for food and liquid. This stops boilovers and spatterings.
5. Wipe up food spills and spatters before they burn into surface.
IMPORTANT Regularly use cleaner cream. If you run out of cleaner cream, use one of the cleansers listed.
Be sure to get a new supply of cleaner cream.
Never mix cleaning products! Mixtures may interact, with damaging or hazardous results.

Special Cleaning Instructions for Mineral Deposits and Discolorations
Problem: A gray brown stain that is not removed when using cleaner cream.
Cause: Condensation, when cooking, often collects and drips from cookware. The minerals found in water supply and foods may
cause a gray or brown film to develop on cooktop. This film is so thin it cannot be felt and appears to be under cooktop.
To Prevent: Daily and proper use of cleaner cream.
To Remove:
Wet surface with water and sprinkle on cleaner cream.
Scrub with clean, damp paper towel until stain disappears.
Clean remaining paste away with damp paper towel.
Apply dab of cleaner cream and polish with a clean paper towel.
WARNING
Do not use cleansers on a heated surface. Fumes could be hazardous. Wait for area to cool before cleaning.
Do not use cleaner cream to clean porcelain, paint or aluminium.

General Cleaning (continued)
Sealed Burner Models (some models) (continued)
To Clean the Burner Grates, Contoured Burner Pans, Burner Cap and Burner Base
The burner grates, contoured burner pans, burner caps and burner base should be routinely cleaned. Keeping the burner ports clean
will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. See instructions below.
To Clean the Burner Grates
Be sure burners and grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot holder,
cleaning cloths or other material on them. The cast iron burner grates can be washed
in hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry the grates with a cloth - don't put them
on the cooktop while still wet. Be sure the grates are positioned securely over the
burners.
To remove burned on food, place the grates in a covered container or plastic bag.
Add 1/4 cup ammonia and soak for 30 minutes. Wash, rinse well and dry. An
abrasive cleaner can be used for stubborn stains.
To Clean the Contoured Burner Pans
The burner pans are attached to the cooktop and are not removable. The burner pan forms a recessed well area located around
each burner unit. If spill occurs in one of the well areas, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and
wipe dry.
To Clean the Burner Cap
Remove burner cap. Use soap-filled pad or mild abrasive cleanser to clean burner
caps. If necessary, cover stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for
30 minutes. Rub gently with a mixture of clean water and vinegar. Wipe dry. Remove
all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.
To Clean the Removable Burner Base and Gas Opening (some models)
The ports (or slots) around the burner base must be routinely cleaned. Use a small-
gauge wire or needle to clean small slots or holes.
Note: If the electrode is damaged or broken, the surface burner will not light because
it will not spark. Manual lighting with a match is still possible.
For proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner - DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD,
CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS OPENING
TUBE. Gas must flow freely through the small hole in the brass orifice for the burners
to light properly. If the gas opening orifice becomes soiled or clogged, use a small-
gauge or needle to clean. ALWAYS keep the burner cap in place whenever a surface
burner is in use.
To Replace the Burner Base and the Burner Cap
Make sure the pieces are thoroughly dry before placing back.
1. Replace burner base and burner cap at there place. Make sure each burner cap
and burner base are properly aligned and leveled.
2. Replace the burner grate.
3. Turn the burner on to determine if it light. If the burner does not light after
cleaning, contact an authorized servicer. Do not service the sealed burner
yourself.

OCCURRENCE
Surface burners do not light.
Surface burner flame burns half way
around.
Surface burner flame is orange.
Scratches or abrasion on cooktop
surface.
Metalmarks.
Brown streaks or specks.
Areas of discoloration with metallic
sheen.
POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Surface Control knob has not been completely turned to LITE. Push in and turn the
Surface Control knob to LITE until burner ignites and then turn control to desired
flame size.
Be sure gas supply valve is open.
Gas-air mixture needs a straight line to travel. Be sure burner is properly seated in its
support (models with open burners only).
Burner ports or slots are clogged. With the burner off, use a small-gauge wire or
needle to clean ports or slots.
Power cord is disconnected from outlet (electric ignition models). Be sure cord is
plugged securely into outlet.
Electrical power outage (electric ignition models). Burners can be lit manually. See
Setting Surface Controls in this Owner's Guide.
Burner ports or slots are clogged. With the burner off, clean ports with a small-
gauge wire or needle to clean ports or slots.
Moisture is present after cleaning. Lightly fan the flame and allow burner to operate
until flame is full. Dry the burners thoroughly following instructions under General
Cleaning.
Dust particles in main line. Allow the burner to operate a few minutes until flame
turns blue.
In coastal areas, a slightly orange flame is unavoidable due to salt air.
Coarse particles such as salt or sand between cooktop and utensil can cause
scratches. Be sure cooktop surface and bottoms of utensils are clean before usage.
Small scratches do no affect cooking and will become less visible with time.
Cleaning materials not recommended for ceramic-glass cooktop have been used.
See "To Clean the Ceramic-glass Cooktop" section under General Cleaning.

installé et mis à la terre par un technicien qualifié,
conformément à la dernière édition de la norme ANSI Z223.1
du National Fuel Gaz Code aux États Unis, ou au Canada,
conformément aux normes B149.1 et B149.2 CAN/ACG et
aussi conformément à la dernière édition de la norme n° 70
ANSI/NFPA du National Electrical Code aux États Unis, ou au
Canada, à la norme C22.1 de l'ACNOR, code canadien de
l'électricité, partie 1, ainsi qu'aux codes de la région. N'installez
l'appareil que selon les instructions d'installation fournies dans la
documentation.
Demandez à votre marchand de vous recommander un technicien
qualifié ainsi qu'un centre de réparation autorisé. Sachez comment
couper le gaz au compteur et couper le courant électrique de la table
de cuisson à la boîte de fusibles ou au coupe-circuit en cas d'urgence.
Entretien par l'usager—Ne réparez pas ou ne remplacez pas
des pièces de l'appareil à moins d'une recommandation précise
dans les guides. Toutes les réparations doivent être faites par un
technicien qualifié, afin de réduire les risques de blessure et de
dommage à l'appareil.
Ne modifiez jamais l'appareil, que ce soit en enlevant des
panneaux, protège-fils, ou toute autre pièce.
Il peut être dangereux pour les
personnes ou dommageable pour la table de cuisson de monter
ou de s'appuyer dessus. Ne laissez pas les enfants grimper sur
l'appareil ou jouer autour.
Rangement sur l'appareil—Ne rangez pas sur la table de
cuisson ou près des brûleurs de surface, des matériaux
inflammables. Ceci inclus des papiers, plastiques, tissus, livres de
cuisine, objets en plastique et torchons, ainsi que des liquides
inflammables. N'y posez pas des produits explosifs comme bombes
aérosol. Les produits inflammables pourraient exploser et allumer
un feu ou causer des dommages matériels.
Ne rangez pas des articles pouvant intéresser
les enfants dans les armoires au-dessus de l'appareil.
Ne laissez pas les enfants sans surveillance dans un lieu où un
appareil fonctionne. Ne les laissez jamais s'asseoir ou se tenir
debout sur une pièce quelconque de l'appareil.
NE TOUCHEZ PAS AUX BRÛLEURS DE SURFACE, AUX GRILLES
OU AUX ZONES À PROXIMITÉ DE CEUX-CI. Les brûleurs de
surface peuvent être suffisamment chauds même si les flammes ne
sont pas visibles. Les zones près des brûleurs peuvent devenir
suffisamment chaudes pour causer des brûlures. Pendant et après
toute utilisation, ne touchez pas et ne laissez pas vos vêtements ou
autres produits inflammables venir en contact avec ces zones à
moins qu'elles aient eu le temps de se refroidir. Ces zones
comprennent la surface de cuisson et les surface orientées vers elle.
Portez des vêtements appropriés—Ne portez jamais de
vêtement amples ou flottants en utilisant cet appareil. Ne
laissez pas les matériaux inflammables et les vêtements venir en
contact avec les surfaces chaudes.
N'utilisez jamais votre appareil pour
réchauffer ou chauffer une pièce.
N'éteignez pas les feux de friture avec de l'eau ou de la
farine—Étouffez les feux avec un couvercle ou du
bicarbonate de soude, ou avec un extincteur à poudre sèche
ou à mousse.
En chauffant de l'huile ou de la graisse, restez près de
l'appareil. La graisse ou l'huile peuvent prendre feu si elles
devenaient trop chaudes.
N'utilisez que des gants isolants secs—Des gants isolants
mouillés ou humides en contact avec des surfaces chaudes
peuvent causer des brûlures par la vapeur. Ne laissez pas les
gants isolants toucher les brûleurs ou la flamme. Ne vous servez pas
de torchon ni de chiffon à la place d'un gant isolant.
Ne réchauffez pas des contenants non ouverts—
L'accumulation de pression peut faire exploser le contenant
et blesser.
Vous devez savoir quel bouton commande chacun des
brûleurs de surface. Tournez le bouton à la position "LITE"
(ALLUMAGE) pour mettre les brûleurs en marche. Vérifiez que le
brûleur est allumé puis réglez la flamme pour qu'elle ne dépasse
pas de l'ustensile.
Bonne dimension de la flamme
Réglez la flamme pour qu'elle ne dépasse pas du bord de
l'ustensile. Avec des ustensiles de dimension insuffisante, une partie
de la flamme du brûleur sera exposée et risquera de mettre la feu aux
vêtements. Un bon contact entre l'ustensile et la flamme améliore
aussi l'efficacité.
N'utilisez pas des grilles de réchaud sur
vos brûleurs à gaz scellés. Sinon, la combustion serait incomplète
et il pourrait en résulter un dégagement de monoxyde de carbone à
des doses supérieures aux niveaux admis, ce qui serait dangereux
pour votre santé.

Instructions de mise à la terre
(modèles à allumage électrique seulement)
IMPORTANT: LIRE ET CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS.
Cet appareil est équipé d'une fiche à trois broches avec
mise à la terre pour assurer votre protection contre les chocs électriques. Cette
fiche doit être branchée directement dans une prise correctement mise à la terre.
Ne coupez PAS, n'enlevez pas la broche de mise à la terre de cette fiche.
Pour des raisons de sécurité personnelle, cette table de cuisson doit être
correctement mise à la terre. La fiche doit être branchée dans un prise
correctement polarisée et mise à la terre, de 120 volts, 60 hertz.
Si une prise murale à deux alvéoles est la seule prise à votre disposition, il vous
revient de demander à un électricien qualifié de la remplacer par une prise murale
à trois alvéoles correctement mise à la terre.
EN AUCUN CAS, IL NE FAUT COUPER OU ENLEVER LA BROCHE DE MISE À LA
TERRE DE CETTE FICHE. CONSULTEZ LES INSTRUCTIONS D'INSTALLATION
EMBALLÉES AVEC CET APPAREIL POUR Y TROUVER TOUS LES RENSEIGNEMENTS

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES (suite)
Utilisez la grosseur de casserole appropriée—Cet appareil est
équipé d'un ou plusieurs brûleurs de surface de différentes
grosseurs. Choisissiez les ustensiles ayant un dessous plat, assez
large pour recouvrir le brûleur. Si vous utilisez des ustensiles trop
petits, une partie du brûleur sera à découvert, et les vêtements
entrant directement en contact avec le brûleur sont susceptibles de
prendre feu. L'utilisation d'ustensiles d'une taille proportionnelle
au brûleur améliore aussi le rendement.
Les poignées d'ustensiles doivent être tournées vers
l'intérieur, sans surplomber les brûleurs adjacents, afin de
réduire les risques de brûlure, de combustion et de renversements
causés par le contact involontaire avec un ustensile.
Ne laissez jamais les brûleurs de surface sans surveillance à des
réglages élevés—Les débordements causent de la fumée, les
éclaboussures de graisse sont susceptibles de prendre feu et les
ustensiles dont le contenu s'est évaporé peuvent fondre.
Protecteurs—N'utilisez pas de papier d'aluminium pour recouvrir
les cuvettes des brûleurs de surface ou toute autre partie de
l'appareil. Utilisez seulement le papier d'aluminium pour recouvrir
la nourriture durant la cuisson au four. Toute autre utilisation de
protecteurs ou de papier aluminium est susceptible de causer un
choc électrique, un feu ou un court-circuit.
Ustensile vitrifiés—En raison de brusques changements de
température, on ne peut utiliser avec la surface de cuisson que
certains ustensiles en verre, en vitrocéramique ou en terre cuite, ou
autres ustensiles vitrifiés, sans risquer qu'ils se fendent. Vérifiez les
recommandations du fabricant quant à leur utilisation sur une
surface de cuisson.
N'utilisez pas de couvercle de brûleur décoratif. Si un brûleur est
accidentellement allumé, le couvercle risque de chauffer et
éventuellement de fondre. Vous risquez de vous brûler en touchant
le couvercle. Aussi, il y a risque d'endommagement de la surface de
cuisson et des brûleurs s'il y a surchauffe du couvercle. L'air sera aussi
bloqué, ce qui entraînera des problèmes de combustion.
SURFACE EN VERRE (certains modèles):
Ne nettoyez pas et ne faites pas fonctionner une table de
cuisson avec une vitre cassée—Si le verre de la surface est fissuré,
les solutions de nettoyage et produits renversés pourraient pénétrer
à l'intérieur de la surface de cuisson et entraîner un risque de
décharge électrique. Prenez contact immédiatement avec un
technicien qualifié.
Nettoyez prudemment le verre de la surface de cuisson—Si
vous utilisez un linge ou une éponge humide pour enlever les
produits renversés sur une surface de cuisson chaude, faites
attention à ne pas vous brûler par la vapeur. Certains produits de
nettoyage peuvent dégager des vapeurs dangereuses s'ils sont
appliqués sur une surface chaude.
Éviter de gratter le verre de la table de cuisson avec des objets
pointus.
CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS
