Verifying Proper Operation
WARNING
Make sure that power to the electrical outlet is turned
•
off at the circuit breaker or fuse box and that the gas
is turned off at the gas supply valve before proceed-
ing.
The cooktop must be properly grounded at all times
•
when electrical power is applied.
Prior to operating the cooktop, read the accompanying use
and care manual carefully.
Make sure all the
1.
cooktop burner con-
trols are in the
OFF
position.
Connect the power
2.
cord to the electrical outlet.
Turn on power to the electrical outlet at the circuit
3.
breaker or fuse box.
Gently push in and turn one burner control knob at a
4.
time counterclockwise to the
HIGH
position. Verify that
the associated burner igniter sparks, then return the
knob to the
OFF
position. Repeat for all of the remain-
ing control knobs.
Turn on the gas supply valve.
5.
Perform the following ignition test for all of the burners:
6.
Push in and turn one of the control knobs counter-
•
clockwise to the
HIGH
position. Only the igniter for
the selected burner will spark. It may take up to four
seconds for the gas to ignite, at which time the ignit-
er will stop sparking. If ignition does not occur within
four seconds, turn the knob to the
OFF
position, wait
for at least five minutes to allow any gas to dissipate,
then repeat the test.
Once the burner lights, the control knob can be rotat-
•
ed counterclockwise from
HIGH
to
LOW
to adjust the
flame height progressively.
When the unit is
•
installed properly, the
flame will be steady. It
will also have a sharp,
blue inner cone that
will vary in length pro-
portional to the burner
size. The flame will be
reduced by the Smart
Flame™ feature under
the grate fingers to
increase grate life.
NOTE: If the cooktop does not operate properly, follow
these troubleshooting steps:
Verify that power and gas are supplied to the cooktop.
•
Check to make sure that the power plug is connected
•
to the electrical outlet and that power is turned on at
the circuit breaker or fuse box.
Check to make sure that all burner parts are properly
•
seated.
If the burner continues to spark after ignition without
•
stopping, have a licensed electrician check the electri-
cal outlet for proper grounding or reversed polarity.
Repeat the burner ignition test.
•
