Power Failure

• In the event of a power failure, only the Standard

burners can be manually lit. It is necessary to light each

one individually.

• If the cooktop is being used when the power failure

occurs, turn all knobs to the OFF position.

• The Standard STAR

burners can be lit by holding a

match at the ports and turning the control knob to the

HI position. Wait until the flame is burning all around

the burner cap before adjusting the flame to the

desired level.

• DO NOT attempt to light the two left and two right

XLO

burners manually during a power failure. These

burners are equipped with the ExtraLow

feature and

cannot be lit manually.

• If an ExtraLow burner is on when a power failure

occurs, it cannot be turned back on until the knob is

first turned to the OFF position.

• The griddle or grill accessory cannot be used during a

power failure.

• If you smell gas, refer to safety precautions listed on

page 1.

Flame Height

• The correct flame height depends on 1) size and

material of pan being used; 2) food being cooked; and

3) amount of liquid in the pan.

• Never extend the flame beyond the base of the pan.

• Use a low or medium flame for pan materials that

conduct the heat slowly, such as porcelain coated steel

or glass-ceramic.

Flame Description

• The burner flame color should be blue with no yellow

on the tips. It is common to see orange in the flame

color; this indicates the burning of airborne impurities

and will disappear with use.

• With propane (LP) gas, slight yellow tips on the

primary

cone are normal.

• The flame should burn completely around the burner

cap. If it doesn’t, check that the cap is positioned

correctly on the base and that the ports are not

blocked.

• The flame should be stable with no excessive noise or

fluttering.

WARNING!

In the event of a power failure, turn all knobs to the OFF

position. Only the Standard burners can be lit manually.

Yellow Flames:

Further Adjustment is required.

Yellow Tips on Outer Cones:

Normal for LP Gas

Soft Blue Flames:

Normal for Natural Gas

If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, verify that the

regulator is set for the correct fuel. After adjustment,

retest.

Some orange-colored streaking is normal during the

initial start-up. Allow unit to operate 4-5 minutes and re-

evaluate before making adjustments.
