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,

- Forothers, the conversion kit isincluded inthe packaging, if you wish to convert your cooktop for usewith propane gas,

usethe supplied fixed orifices located in the package containing the installation instruction, in a bag marked "FORLP/

PROPANEGAS CONVERSION". Follow the instructions packaged with the orifices (for models with sealed burners only),

Theconversion must be performed byaqualified 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 asa 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.

Proper Burner AdJustments

Thecolor of the flame isthe key to 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 under General Cleaning.

Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top

of the cooktop when it isin use. These items could melt or ignite. Pot holders, towels or wood spoons could catch fire if placed

too close to a flame.

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 bob

tom. There should be no gaps between

the pan and ruler.

Note: Always usea utensil for its intend-

ed purpose. Follow manufacturer's in-

structions, Some utensils were not made

to be used inthe 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.

Specialty Pans & Trivets

*GOOD

• Flat bottom and straight sides.

• Tightfltting lids,

• Weight of handle does not tilt

pan. Pan is well balanced,

• Pansizes match the amount of

food to be prepared.

• Made of material that conducts

heat well.

• Easyto clean,

POOR

• Curved and warped pan bottoms.

• Pan overhangs unit by more than

2.5 cm (1 ").

...... u

• Heavy handle tilts pan,

• Flame extends beyond unit,

* Specialty pans such aslobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may be used

but must conform to the above recommended cookware requirements.

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 (frying),

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

largeamounts 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, Usefiat-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 as low 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,
