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.

•
