Grounding Instructions (electric ignition models only)

IMPORTANT: READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

WARNING

This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug for your

protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly

grounded receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

For personal safety, this cooktop must be properly grounded. For maximum

safety, the power cord must be plugged into a 120V—60 Hz. outlet that is

correctly polarized and properly grounded.

If a two-prong wall receptacle is the only available outlet, it is the personal

responsibility of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-

prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD ROUND

GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD PLUG. SEE THE INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS PACKAGED WITH THIS COOKTOP FOR COMPLETE INSTALLATION

AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS. DO NOT OPERATE THE COOKTOP USING A

TWO-PRONG ADAPTER OR AN EXTENSION CORD.

Liquefied Petroleum (Propane) Gas Conversion

WARNING

Severe shock or damage to the cooktop may occur if the cooktop is not installed by a qualified installer or electrician.

Flame Size

For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower

one to complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for determining

proper flame size for various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used

and the amount of food being cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.

For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the Surface Control knob

accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the

fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked.

Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither

brown nor cook properly.

* These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with

lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.

*Flame Size

High Flame

Medium Flame

Low Flame

Type of Cooking

Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling

Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam

Keep foods cooking; poach; stew

RIGHT

WRONG

Never extend the flame beyond the

outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame

simply wastes heat and energy and

increases your risk of being burned by

the flame.

WARNING

Avoid fire hazard or elec-

trical shock. Do not use an adaptor plug,

an extension cord or remove grounding

prong from electrical power cord. Failure

to follow this warning can cause srous in-

jury, fire or death.
