IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the appliance, it
is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians
to ensure that they are instructed in safe operation of the
appliance by qualified persons.
DO NOT allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on
any part of an appliance. 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.
NEVER use any part of the rangetop for storage.
Flammable materials can catch fire and plastic items may
melt or ignite. DO NOT hang articles from any part of the
appliance. Some fabrics are quite flammable and may
catch on fire.
If the rangetop is near a window, be certain the curtains do
not blow over or near the rangetop burners; they could
catch on fire.
ALWAYS have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop
and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available nearby,
highly visible, and easily accessible near the cooking
appliance.
Smother flames from food fires, other than grease fires,
with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system
during a rangetop fire. However, DO NOT reach through
fire to turn it off.
NEVER let clothing, potholders, or other flammable
materials come in contact with or too close to any burner or
burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result
in personal injury.
Use only dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot
surfaces may cause burns from steam. DO NOT use a
towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. DO NOT
let potholders touch hot burners or burner grates.
For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting
garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while
using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly
flammable and should not be worn while cooking.
WARNING!
DO NOT store items of interest to children above or at
the back of the rangetop. If children should climb onto
the appliance to reach these items, they could be
seriously injured.
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 other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or the
electric element. 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 dish cloths 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.
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 hood filters 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 rangetop burner.
English 4
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT use aluminum foil to line any part of the rangetop.
Use of a foil liner could result in a shock or fire hazard, or
the obstruction of the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped
beneath it. This will upset the cooking performance and can
damage the finish of the rangetop.
When using the rangetop: DO NOT TOUCH THE BURNER
GRATES OR THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREA.
Areas adjacent to the burners may become hot enough to
cause burns.
Never leave the rangetop unattended when using high
flame settings. Boil overs cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Also, if the burner flames and
igniter are smothered with spillage, unburned gas will
escape into the room. See page 1 regarding gas leaks.
Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are
suitable for cooking on the rangetop burners. This type of
cookware may break with sudden temperature changes.
Use only on low or medium heat settings according to the
utensil manufacturer’s directions.
DO NOT heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up
of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause
injury.
During cooking, set the burner control so that the flame
heats only the bottom of the pan and does not extend
beyond the bottom of the pan.
Use caution to ensure that drafts like those from forced air
vents or fans do not blow flammable material toward the
flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the
edges of the pot.
Always use pots and pans that have flat bottoms large
enough to cover the burner. The use of undersized pots
and pans could expose a portion of the flame and may
result in ignition of clothing.
To minimize the risk of burns, ignition of flammable
materials and unintentional spillage, position handles of
pots and pans inward so they do not extend over adjacent
work areas, cooking areas, or the edge of the rangetop.
DO NOT use pots or pans on the grill plate accessory
(purchased separately). Bakeware, such as large
casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc., should never be used
on the rangetop.
DO NOT use flammable cleaners to clean the rangetop.
Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement when
stirring or turning food.
Remove the optional cutting board or griddle cover
accessory, which is stored on top of the griddle plate,
before operating the griddle or any adjacent burners.
GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits
collect. Clean after each use.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep
the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean the ports
when there is a boil over or when the burner does not light
even though the electronic igniters activate. Clean the
rangetop with caution. Avoid steam burns; DO NOT use a
wet sponge or cloth to clean the rangetop while it is hot.
Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner
manufacturer.
WARNING!
The appliance is for cooking. Based on safety
considerations, never use the rangetop to warm or heat
a room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide
poisoning and overheating of the unit. Also, such use
can damage the rangetop parts.
WARNING!
Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the
grate or with one that spans more than one burner, such
as a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This can
result in poor combustion that generates harmful by-
products.
WARNING!
After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and using
caution due to possible hot surfaces, clean around the
burner and burner ports. After cleaning, check for proper
operation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Be sure all rangetop controls are turned off and the
rangetop is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner
on or around the rangetop. The chemical that produces the
spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or
cause metal parts to corrode.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
Service should only be done by authorized technicians.
Technicians must disconnect the power supply before
servicing this unit.
DO NOT use the grill plate accessory for cooking
excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-
ups.
When cooking fatty or oily foods on burners, the grill, or the
griddle, adjacent gas burners can ignite airborne fumes.
Use caution to avoid burns.
To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be
prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and
filters.
In case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or other
spirits on the rangetop, follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content
(e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon). Alcohol evaporates at high
temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol
vapors may catch fire. Use only small quantities of alcohol
in foods.
DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors,
flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance.
It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking
food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or
cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in
injury.
WARNING!
DO NOT block or obstruct the flow of
air through the ventilation openings.
The vent is located at the back of the
appliance. The vent needs to be
unobstructed and open to provide
necessary airflow that is important for
proper performance.
DO NOT touch vent area while the
appliance is on and for several
minutes after the appliance is off.
Some parts of the vent and
surrounding areas become hot
enough to cause burns. Allow
appliance sufficient time to cool
before touching or cleaning vent
areas.
DO NOT position plastic or other
heat-sensitive items on or near the
vent. These items could melt or
ignite.
Low Back
Vent
WARNING!
This appliance should not be installed with a ventilation
system that directs air in a downward direction toward

Using the Rangetop
Surface Burners
Sealed STAR
®
Burners
Each burner has a unique QuickClean
®
base feature which
allows the burner and area around the burner to be easier
to clean.
On all models, the two left burners have the exclusive
ExtraLow
®
feature, any remaining burners are Standard.
Each STAR burner has its own control knob.
Control Knobs
Typically, a pair of control knobs is located on the control
panel, directly in front of the pair of gas STAR burners they
control — with one gas burner positioned in front of the
other on the rangetop.
The symbol near each burner control knob identifies the
burner position on the rangetop.
Operation of the STAR Burners
1. Press in on the knob and turn it counter-clockwise to
the HI setting.
The igniter for the selected burner sparks to ignite
the burner.
After flame ignition, the igniter stops sparking.
2. Rotate the knob to any flame setting between HI and
SIM.
A blue light is positioned between the burner
controls. The light turns on when the control knob
is rotated to an active mode. It is off when the
control knob is in the OFF position.

STAR
®
Burners
The controls for the two left burners, front and rear, have
flame settings even lower than the standard SIM settings.
Figure 5 shows that the control knob has an additional
range between the SIM and XLO settings. When the knob
is set within this range, the flame cycles off and on. By
varying the length of time the flame is off and on, the heat is
reduced even further to cook delicate foods. For example,
these very low settings are suitable for simmering and
poaching, melting chocolate and butter, holding cooked
foods at temperatures without scorching or burning, etc.
Operation of the ExtraLow
®
Burner
XLO, the very lowest setting, is achieved by cycling the
flame on for approximately 7 seconds and off for 53
seconds of each minute.
When the knob is rotated just beyond the SIM setting,
the flame will cycle on for approximately 54 seconds
and off for 6 seconds of each minute.
To vary the amount of low heat, the control can be set
anywhere within the SIM and XLO range marked on
the knob.

Techniques
The type and quantity of food affects which setting to
use.
The pan selected affects the setting. Its size, type,
material, and whether a lid is used, all affect the
consistency of the cooking temperature.
To maintain a low or simmer heat, bring food to a
rolling boil. Stir well, then cover the pan and lower the
heat to a setting just below SIM.
Check periodically to see if the control knob should be
turned to another setting.
If an over-size pan is used, the simmer action may
occur mainly in the center of the pan. To equalize the
temperature throughout the food, stir the food around
the outer edges of the pan into the food in the center.
It is normal to stir food occasionally while simmering.
This is especially important when simmering for several
hours, such as for a homemade spaghetti sauce or
beans.
When lowering the flame setting, adjust it in small
steps.
If the setting is too low to hold a simmer, bring the food
back to a boil before re-setting to a higher heat.
It is normal not to see simmer bubbles immediately
after the food has been stirred.
There may be bubbling when the flame cycles on and
no bubbles when the flame is off. Even when the flame
is off, there will be steam and a slight quiver on the
liquid’s surface.
IMPORTANT:
For proper combustion, DO NOT use the rangetop
without the burner grates in place.
There is a slight sound associated with gas combustion
and ignition. This is normal.
On rangetops using propane (LP) gas, a slight “pop”
sound may be heard from the STAR burner ports a few
seconds after the burner has been turned off.

Checking Burner Cap Placement
Check each burner to make sure there is no gap
between the burner cap and burner base. See Figure 6
and Figure 7 for examples of correct and incorrect
placements of the burner cap.
You may gently try to move the burner caps from side
to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the
burner bases. When properly placed, each burner cap
will rest flat on top of its burner base, and completely
cover the star-shape of the burner base when viewed
from the top as shown in Figure 6.
Burner Cap Placement
The burner caps must be properly placed on the burner
bases for the rangetop to function properly. If the burner
cap is not properly placed, one or more of the following
problems may occur:
Burner flames are too high.
Flames shoot out of burners.
Burners do not ignite.
Burner flames light unevenly.
Burner emits gas odor.
Electronic Single Point Ignition
Each STAR
®
burner has its own electronic igniter that
sparks when the burner is turned on. Each burner should
light in 4 seconds or less. If a burner does not light, check
to see that the burner cap is positioned correctly on the
base (see Figure 6 and Figure 7).

WARNING!
To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates
while hot. Turn the rangetop off and allow the burners to
cool.
WARNING!
To prevent flare-ups and avoid the creation of harmful
by-products, do not use the rangetop without all burner
caps and all burner grates properly positioned.

Automatic Re-Ignition
If any one or more burners blow out, the electronic igniter
automatically activates to re-light the flame. DO NOT touch
the STAR burners when the igniters are active.
Power Failure
In the event of a power failure, only the Standard
burners can be manually lit. It is necessary to light each
one individually.
If the rangetop is being used when the power failure
occurs, turn all knobs to the OFF position.
The standard STAR burners can be lit by holding a
match at the ports and turning the control knob to the
HI position. Wait until the flame is burning all around
the burner cap before adjusting the flame to the
desired level.
DO NOT attempt to light the two left XLO
®
burners
manually during a power failure. These burners are
equipped with the ExtraLow
®
feature and cannot be lit
manually.
If an ExtraLow burner is on when a power failure
occurs, it cannot be turned back on until the knob is
first turned to the OFF position.
The griddle or grill accessory cannot be used during a
power failure.
If you smell gas, refer to safety precautions listed on
page 1.
Flame Height
The correct flame height depends on 1) size and
material of pan being used; 2) food being cooked; and
3) amount of liquid in the pan.
Never extend the flame beyond the base of the pan.
Use a low or medium flame for pan materials that
conduct the heat slowly, such as porcelain coated steel
or glass-ceramic.
Flame Description
The burner flame color should be blue with no yellow
on the tips. It is common to see orange in the flame
color; this indicates the burning of airborne impurities
and will disappear with use.
With propane (LP) gas, slight yellow tips on the
primary
cone are normal.
The flame should burn completely around the burner
cap. If it doesn’t, check that the cap is positioned
correctly on the base and that the ports are not
blocked.
The flame should be stable with no excessive noise or
fluttering.
CAUTION!
DO NOT touch the STAR burners when the igniters are
sparking. Ensure that the knobs are set to OFF and the
burners and caps have cooled before touching.
WARNING!
In the event of a power failure, turn all knobs to the OFF
position. Only the standard burners can be lit manually.
Yellow Flames:
Further Adjustment is required.
Yellow Tips on Outer Cones:
Normal for LP Gas
Soft Blue Flames:
Normal for Natural Gas
If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, verify that the
regulator is set for the correct fuel. After adjustment,
retest.
Some orange-colored streaking is normal during the
initial start-up. Allow unit to operate 4-5 minutes and re-
evaluate before making adjustments.

Cookware Recommendations
Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie
sheets, etc. should never be used on the rangetop.
Placement of large stock pots should be staggered
when used on the rangetop.
Select the base diameter to match the diameter of the
flame. The diameter of the flame should be the same
size as the pan base or slightly smaller. Oversize or
undersize pans sacrifice cooking performance. A 5½”
(140 mm) base size is generally the smallest
recommended.
Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than
the grate or with one that spans more than one burner,
such as a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This
can result in poor combustion that generates harmful
by-products.
Balance is important for stability and even cooking. The
handle must not be heavier than the pan and tilt it
unevenly. A pan must sit level on the grate without
rocking or wobbling.
Food packaged in aluminum foil should not be placed
directly on the burner grate. Aluminum foil can melt
during cooking.
Do not let plastic, paper or cloth come in contact with a
hot burner grate. They may melt or catch fire.
Never let a pan boil dry. This can damage your pan and
the cooking surface.
Professional quality pans with metal handles are
recommended because plastic handles can melt or
blister if the flame extends up the side of the pan.
Professional quality pans are found at restaurant
supply stores and gourmet specialty shops. All
cookware should have these characteristics: good heat
conductivity, good balance, correctly sized base
diameter, a heavy, flat base, and a proper fitting lid.
For best cooking results, the flame should be contained
under the bottom of the pan.
Aluminum and copper are pan materials that conduct
the heat quickly and evenly. These metals are
sometimes attached to the base or in the core between
stainless steel.
A heavy, flat base is more apt to remain flat when
heated. Pan bases that are warped, dented, ridged or
too lightweight will heat unevenly. Heat and cool pans
gradually to avoid sudden temperature changes which
tend to distort cookware. Do not add cold water to a hot
pan.
A properly fitting lid will shorten cooking time and make
it possible to use lower heat settings.
WARNING!
To avoid risk of serious injury, damage to appliance or
cookware, please observe the following:

Specialty Cookware
Woks — Either flat-based or round-bottom woks with the
accessory ring can be used on all models. Round bottom
woks must be used with a support ring. The Wok pan and
the porcelain-coated cast iron wok support ring must be
purchased separately (PWOKRINGHC).
Canners and Stock Pots — Select one with a base
diameter that extends no more than 2” (51 mm) beyond the
grate.
Standard Size Water Bath Canner — 21 to 22 quarts
(19.95 to 20.9 liters), with an 11” to 12” base (279–305 mm)
and a 9” to 11” depth (229–279 mm).
Standard Size Pressure Canner — 8 to 22 quarts (7.6 to
20.9 liters), with an 8” to 11” base (203–279 mm) and a 6½”
to 12” depth (165–305mm).
Canning Tips:
A flat base pan is preferred to one with a concave,
convex or rippled base.
When using two canners at the same time, use
staggered burners. Do not block air to the burners. A
flame needs the right amount of air for complete
combustion.
Use a cover on a canner when bringing the contents to
a boil.
Once the contents have reached a boil on HI, use the
lowest flame possible to maintain the boil or pressure.
Canning produces a large amount of steam. Take
precautions to prevent burns.
Suggestions for Using the Surface Burner
Cooking Recommendations
Use the chart starting on page 14 as a guide. The settings
you use will vary depending on the pans selected and the
starting temperature of the food.
On the chart, the “Finish Setting” has been separated for
the Standard and ExtraLow
®
STAR
®
burners. There may
or may not be a change between the two burner settings.
The ExtraLow setting can be either a cooking or a holding
setting.
Raise or lower the flame setting gradually. Allow time for
the pan and the food to adjust to the new setting.
