may cause bodily injury or property damage,
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, GRATES, OR AREAS
NEARTHESE 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.

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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
Use proper pan size--This appliance is equipped with one or
more surface burners of different sizes. Select utensils having fiat
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.
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 beable to seethat the burner ison. Burns
will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may aIso bedone
to the cooktop or burners because the covers may cause
overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause
combustion problems.
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.
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.
GLASS COOKTOPS (somemodels):
Do Not Operate or Clean a Broken Cooktop Glass--If glasstop
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
usedtowipe spillson ahot cooking area, becarefultoavoid a steam
burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
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.

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 isshipped 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. seethe installation instructions guide for the conversion instructions.
- Models with Sealed Burners:
- Forsome of them, you should order the conversion kit from your local dealer or from an authorized serviceagency (see
Warranty). Seethe installation instructions for the conversion kit number.
- F_r_thers,thec_nversi_nkitisinc_udedinthepackaging,ify_uwisht_c_nverty_urc__kt_p__rusewithpr_panegas_
usethe supplied fixed orifices located in the package containing the installation instruction, in a bag marked "FORLP/
PROPANEGASCONVERSION". Follow the instructions packaged with the orifices (for models with sealed burners only).
Theconversion must beperformed bya qualified servicetechnician 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. Usethe 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 istoo cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy.If the fat istoo 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 asthe food will neither brown nor cook properly.
*Flame size
High Flame
Medium Flame
Low Flame
Type of Cooking
Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.
Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam.
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.
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.
IGHT:;
Proper Burner AdJustments
Thecolor of the flame isthe keyto proper burner adjustment. A good flame isclear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room.
Eachcone of flame should be steady and sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame isyellow-orange. To clean burner, see
instructions underGeneral Cleaning.

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. 6
Selecting Surface Cooking Utensils
For best results and energy conservation, choose cooking utensils that have these characteristics:
Pansshould havefiat bottoms. Check for
flatness by rotating aruler acrossthe bot-
tom. There should be no gaps between
the pan and ruler.
Note: Always usea utensil for itsintend-
ed purpose. Follow manufacturer's in-
structions, Some utensils were not made
to be used in the oven or on the cooktop.
Note: Do not usegriddle 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.

Woks with fiat bottoms suitable for
use on your cooktop are available in
most cookshop or hardware stores,
Round-bottomed woks (with a
support ring that does not extend
beyond the burner unit) may also be
used. The metal ring was designed to
support the wok safely when it is
filled with large amounts of liquids
(soup making) or fat (flying),
DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped
with a metal ring that extends
beyond the burner unit. Because this
ring traps heat, the surface unit and
cooktop surface could be damaged.
Wire trivets: Do not usewire trivets. Cookware bottoms must be in direct contact
with the grates.
DO NOT use two burner units to heat one large pan such as a
roaster or griddle, or allow cooking utensils to boil dry. The bottom surface of the
pan in either of these situations could cause discoloring or crazing of the appliance
cooking surface, and damage to the grates and burner units.
Canning Tips &
Information
Canning can generate
large amounts of steam. Useextreme cau-
tion to prevent burns. Always raise the
lid to vent steam away from you.
1, Usetested recipes and follow instructions carefully, Check with your local
Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of glassjars for
the latest canning information.
2, Useflat-bottomed canners only. Heat is spread more evenly when the
bottom surface isflat,
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 aslow as possible to
maintain a constant boil.
5, It isbest 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, Tryto avoid canning on the same burner
unit all day.
Safecanning requires that harmful micro-organisms are destroyed
and thejars are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle
but steady boil must be maintained continuously for the required time,

Entretien par I'usager--Ne reparez pas ou ne remplacez pas
despiecesde I'appareil a moins d'une recomma ndation precise
darts les guides. Toutes les reparations doivent etre faites par un
technicien qualifie, afin de reduire les risques de blessure et de
dommage a I'appareil.
Ne modifiezjamais I'appareil, que ce soit en entevant des
panneaux, protege-fils, ou toute autre piece.
II peut etre 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
I'appareil ou jouer autour.
Rangement sur I'appareiI--Ne rangez pas sur la table de
cuisson ou pres des bn_leurs de surface, des materiaux
inflammables. Ced indus des papiers, plastiques, tissus, livresde
cuisine, objets en plastique et torchons, ainsi que des liquides
inflammables. N'y posez pasdes produits explosifs comme bombes
aerosol. Les produits inflammables pourraient exploser et allumer
un feu ou causer des dommages materiels.
Ne rangez pasdes articles pouvant interesser
les enfants dans les armoires au-dessus de I'appareil.
Nelaissezpaslesenfantssanssurveinancedansunlieuouun
appareil fonctionne. Ne les laissezjamais s'asseoir ou se tenir
debout sur une piece quelconque de I'appareil.
NE TOUCHEZ PAS AUX BROLEURSDE SURFACE,AUX GRILLES
OU AUX ZONES A PROXIMITI_ DE CEUX-CI. LesbrQleurs de
surface peuvent etre suffisamment chauds meme siles flammes ne
sont pas visibles. Les zones pres des brQleurs peuvent devenir
suffisamment chaudes pour causer des brOlures. Pendant et apres
toute utilisation, netouchez pas et ne laissezpas vosvetements ou
autres produits inflammables venir en contact avec ces zones 8
moins qu'elles aient eu le temps de se refroidir. Ces zones
compren nent la surface de cuissonet lessurface orientees vers elle.
Portez des vCtements appropries--Ne portez jamais de
vetement amples ou flottants en utilisant cet appareil. Ne
laissez pas les materiaux inflammables et les vetements venir en
contact avec les surfaces chaudes.
N'utilisezjamais votre appareil pour
rechauffer ou chauffer une piece.
N'eteignez pas les feux de friture avec de I'eau ou de la
farine--I_touffez les feux avec un couvercle ou du
bicarbonate de soude, ou avec un extincteur a poudre seche
ou a mousse.
En chauffant de I'huile ou de la graisse, restez pres de
I'appareil. La graisse ou I'huile peuvent prendre feu si elles
devenaient trop chaudes.
N'utilisez que des gants isolants secs--Des gants isolants
mouilles ou humides en contact avec des surfaces chaudes
peuvent causer des brulures par la vapeur. Ne laissezpas les
gants isola ntstoucher les brOleursou laflamme. Nevous servez pas
de torchon ni de chiffon a la place d'un gant isolant.
Ne rechauffez pas des contenants non ouverts--
L'accumulation de pression peut faire exploser le contenant
et blesser.
Vous devez savoir quel bouton commande chacun des
brt_leurs de surface. Tournez le bouton 8 la position "LITE"
(ALLUMAGE) pour mettre les brOleurs en marche. Verifiez que le
brOleur est allume puis reglez la flamme pour qu'elle ne depasse
pas de I'ustensile.
Bonne dimension de la flamme---
Reglez la flamme pour qu'elle ne depasse pas du bord de
I'ustensile. Avec des ustensiles de dimension insuffisante, une partie
de laflamme du brQleur seraexposee et risquera de mettre la feu aux
vetements. Un bon contact entre I'ustensile et la flamme ameliore
aussi I'efficadte.
MESURES DE SI CURITI IMPORTANTES(,uite)
N'utilisez pas des grilles de rechaud sur
vos brt_leurs b gaz scelles. Sinon, la combustion serait incomplete
et il pourrait en resulter un degagement de monoxyde de carbone
des doses superieures aux niveaux admB, ce qui serait dangereux
pour votre sante.
Utilisez la grosseur de casserole appropriee--Cet appareil est
equipe d'un ou plusieurs braleurs de surface de differentes
grosseurs. Choisissiez les ustensiles ayant un dessous plat, assez
large pour recouvdr le brOleur. Si vous utilisez des ustensiles trap
petits, une pattie du brOleur sere a decouve_t, et les vetements
entrant directement en contact avec le brOleur sont susceptibles de
prendre feu. L'utilisation d'ustensiles d'une taille proportionnelle
au brOleur ameliore aussi le rendement.
Les poignees d'ustensiles doivent etre tournees vers
I'interieur, sans surplomber les brt_leurs adjacents, afin de
reduire les risques de brOlure, de combustion et de renversements
causes par le contact [nvolontaire avec un ustens[le.
NelaissezjamaislesbrOleursdesurfacesanssurveillancebdes
reglages eleves--Les debordements causent de la fumee, les
eclaboussures de graisse sont susceptibles de prendre feu et les
ustensiles dont le contenu s'est evapore peuvent fondre.
Proteeteurs--N'utilisez pas de papier d'aluminium pour recouvrir
les cuvettes des brOleurs de surface ou route autre pa_tie de
I'appareil. Utilisez seulement le papier d'aluminium pour recouvdr
la nourriture durant la cuisson au four. Toute autre utilisation de
protecteurs ou de papier aluminium est susceptible de causer un
choc electrique, un feu ou un court-circuit.
Ustensile vitrifies--En raison de brusques changements de
temperature, on ne peut utiliser avec la surface de cuisson que
certains ustensiles en verre, en vitroceramique ou en terre cuite, ou
autres ustensiles vitrifies, sans dsquer qu'ils sefendent. Verifiez les
recommendations du fabricant quanta leur utilisation sur une
surface de cuisson.
N'utilisez pasde couvercle de brt_teur decoratif. Siun braleurest
accidentellement allume, le couverde risque de chauffer et
eventuellement de fondre. Vous risquez de vous brOler en touchant
le couverde. Aussi, il y arisque d'endommagement de la surface de
cuisson et desbraleurs s'il y asurchauffe du couvercle. L'air sereaussi
bloque, ce qui entrainera des problemes de combustion.
SURFACE EN VERRE (certainsmodeles):
Ne nettoyez pas et ne faites pas fonctionner une table de
cuisson avec une vitre cassee--Si le verre de la surface est fissure,
lessolutions de nettoyage et produits renverses pourraient penetrer
Hnterieur de la surface de cuisson et entrainer un risque de
decharge electrique. Prenez contact immediatement avec un
technicien qualifie.
Nettoyez prudemment le verre de la surface de cuisson--Si
vous utilisez un linge ou une eponge humide pour enlever les
produits renverses sur une surface de cuisson chaude, faites
attention a ne pas vous braler par la vapeur. Certains produits de
nettoyage peuvent degager des vapeurs dangereuses s'ils sont
appliques sur une surface chaude.
Ne placez pas d'ustensiles de cuisine chauds sur le verre de la
table de cuisson. Ceci pourrait le casser.
