COOKTOP
The cooktop uses propane as a fuel source.
The cooktop burners use a piezo type igniter.
The cooktop should be used for cooking
purposes only and not as a heating source.
When the burner valve is opened, the fuel ows
through the valve into the mixture tube. The fuel
passes by a hole or venturi in the mixture tube,
which draws air in with the fuel for a proper
fuel/air ratio. The ame should have a blue
appearance with a lighter blue dened ame at
the burner head.
The cooktop will operate when the
following condition is met:
The primary propane valve on the
propane tank is open.
Operating the Cooktop
Turn the appropriate burner knob
counterclockwise to LITE. DO NOT
attempt to light more than one burner at
a time.
Turn the SPARK knob located at the left
hand side of the cooktop, clockwise one
click. If the burner fails to light, continue
turning the SPARK knob clockwise until
the burner lights.
Turn the burner knob clockwise to OFF
to turn the burner off.
Operation Tips
1. A yellow ame or yellow tips indicate
a rich fuel mixture or incorrect fuel/air
ratio. This results in lowered BTU
output and can cause carbon build up
to occur, thus leaving a black color or
carbon on the bottom of a pot or pan.
2. Flame appearance may change and
BTU output will lower when operating
the cooktop at an altitude above 5,000
feet. Allow extra cooking time.
3. DO NOT allow the tips of the ame
to extend beyond pan or pot edge.
When this occurs heat is wasted and
possibility of injury increases.
4. Remove cooktop cover to help keep the
underside of the cooktop clean. Place
strips of aluminum foil on the cooktop
oor pan and under burners. DO NOT
restrict airow of mixture tubes.
Burner Grate
Removing the Burner Grate and Cooktop
Cover for cleaning:
Place a towel on the counter next to the
cooktop.
Remove the burner grate by lifting out
of rubber inserts of cooktop cover and
place on towel.
Remove the cooktop cover up by
pushing cover toward rear of cooktop
and lift cover at the front edge. Place
cooktop on the towel.
Cleaning
Clean all surfaces as soon as possible
after boil-overs or spills.
Use warm, soapy water to clean the
burner grates, painted surfaces, porcelain
surfaces, stainless steel surfaces and
plastic items on the range or cooktop.
Grit or acid-type cleaners may ruin the
surface.
Use only non-abrasive plastic scrubbing
pads.
