• You may gently try to move the burner caps from side to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the burner bases. When properly placed, each burner cap will rest flat on top of its burner base, and completely cover the star-shape of the burner base when viewed from the top as shown in Figure 13. Burner Cap Placement The burner caps must be properly placed on the STAR burner bases for the cooktop to function properly. If the burner cap is not properly placed, one or more of the following problems may occur. • Burner flames are too high. • Flames shoot out of burners. • Burners do not ignite. • Burner flames light unevenly. • Burner emits gas odor. Electronic Single Point Ignition WARNING: To prevent flare-ups and avoid the creation of harmful by-products, do not use the rangetop without all burner caps and all burner grates properly positioned. Figure 13: Correct Burner Cap Placement Figure 14: Incorrect Burner Cap Placement Star® Star® WARNING: To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow the burners to cool. Figure 15: Ignitor Figure 16: STAR Burner Components Igniter Igniter Burner Cap Burner Base Each STAR® burner has its own electronic igniter that sparks when the burner is turned on. Each burner should light in 4 seconds or less. If a burner does not light, check to see that the burner cap is positioned correctly on the base (see Figure 13 and Figure 14). CAUTION: DO NOT touch the STAR burners when the igniters are sparking. Ensure that the knobs are set to OFF and the burners and caps have cooled before touching. If a burner fails to ignite, refer to “Before Calling For Service” on page 40. Automatic Re-Ignition If any one or more burners blow out, the electronic igniter automatically activates to re-light the flame. DO NOT touch the STAR burners when the igniters are active. IMPORTANT: • For proper combustion, DO NOT use the cooktop without the burner grates in place. • There is a slight sound associated with gas combustion and ignition. This is normal. • On cooktops using propane (LP) gas, a slight “pop” sound may be heard from the STAR burner ports a few seconds after the burner has been turned off. 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. WARNING: In the event of a power failure, turn all knobs to the OFF Position. Only the Standard burners can be lit manually. 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 Dark Blue Dark Blue Dark BlueDark Blue Secondary Cone Secondary Cone Secondary ConeSecondary Cone Light Blue Light Blue Light BlueLight Blue Primary Cone Primary Cone Primary ConePrimary Cone Figure 17: Flame Colors • 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. English 15 Cookware Recommendations WARNING: To avoid risk of serious injury, damage to appliance or cookware, please observe the following: • Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc. should never be used on the cooktop. • Placement of large stock pots should be staggered when used on the cooktop. Figure 18: Base Diameter • Select the base diameter to match the diameter of the flame. The diameter of the flame should be the same size as the pan base or slightly smaller. Oversize or under size pans sacrifice cooking performance. A 5.” (140 mm) base size is generally the smallest recommended. • Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the gr...
