● Check for gas leaks at all gas connections (using a gas detector, never a flame).
● Check ignition of cooktop burners.
● Check the flame. When properly installed, the flame will be steady and quiet and
approximately 1” in height.
COOKTOP OPERATION
BEFORE USING BURNERS
● Select the cookware to match the burner. (Large Diameter = Large Burner, Small
Diameter = Small Burner)
● Using oversized cookware may cause the flames to spread out and may cause
damage. The proper cookware size will also improve efficiency.
● Cookware with a smaller diameter than the grate will not sit correctly, and this
creates a spillage hazard.
● Only use heat-resistant cookware, marked safe for gas cooktops.
● Thick cookware bases will give more even results, as hot spots are reduced due to
better heat distribution. Thin cookware bases will conduct heat faster but not as
evenly as thick cookware. Stir the food frequently to prevent burning.
● Always place the cookware on the grate. The cookware must not be placed directly
on the burner.
COOKTOP BURNER IGNITION
To light the surface burners, push and turn the corre-
sponding Burner Control Knob counterclockwise to
the ‘IGNITE’ position. You will hear a clicking noise –
the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner.
IMPORTANT: When one burner is turned to the
‘IGNITE’ position, all the burners will spark. Do not
touch any burner cap, burner base, or igniter while the
igniters are sparking. Do not attempt to disassemble
or clean around any burner while another burner is on.

When a flame is visible, keep the Burner Control Knob
pressed and continue to turn the knob counterclock-
wise to adjust the flame size. If the knob stays at
‘IGNITE’, it will continue to click.
The burner can be continuously regulated between
highest and lowest flame.
Note: The outer flame of the Double Burner will go out
when the Burner Knob is rotated to simmer (SIM).
Rotate clockwise to re-ignite the outer flame.
To turn OFF, turn the Burner Control Knob clockwise
back to the dot/off position. The gas supply will stop
and the flame will go out.
● Check ignition of oven burner.
● Visually check heating elements of both ovens. Carefully lift the panel on the interi-
or floor of each oven. Turn on the ovens to check the heating elements heat fully. Turn
off ovens and allow to cool before returning the floor panels.
● Visually check the broil heating element of Oven 2.
● Check operation of convection fan of Oven 2.
IMPORTANT:
● Metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight odor the
first time your new appliance is heated.
● The harmless odor will dissipate after a short time and does not indicate a faulty
connection or appliance defect.
