Power failure
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise to HIGH. After burner lights, turn knob to
setting. The vent fan will not work.
NOTE: The downdraft vent will not operate during a power
failure.
Pilotless Ignition
Pilotless Ignition eliminates the need for a constant standing pilot
light. Each burner surface has an electric spark igniter. If your
burner flame goes out, Pilotless Ignition will automatically spark
to reignite the burner.
NOTE: All igniters will spark when any flame is extinguished but
only the selected burner will reignite.
If intermittent sparking occurs, rotate the knob clockwise until the
clicking (spark) sound ceases.
Smart Port Burner System
This cooktop is equipped with a Smart Port Burner System. The
Smart Port Burner System produces a small flame directly under
each grate finger and a larger flame between each grate finger.
The visual difference between the ports will be noticeable when
the burner is used or when adjustments are made to the flame
length.
Sealed Surface Burners
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap and head in place when
using a surface burner. A clean burner cap and head will help
avoid poor ignition and uneven flames. Always clean the burner
cap and head after a spillover and routinely remove and clean the
caps according to the “General Cleaning” section.
Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil
and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the
gas tube opening by always using a burner cap.
Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown above. A good flame is blue in color, not
yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food,
cleaning agents or any other material to enter the burner ports.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
cooktop is cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust
removers.
1. Remove the burner cap and head from the burner base and
clean according to “General Cleaning” section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do
not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden
toothpick.
4. Replace the burner cap and head, making sure the alignment
tab and notch are properly aligned with the burner cap.
5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check burner
head alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not
service the burner yourself. Contact a trained repair
specialist.
