Match the size of the cooktop burner or element to the size of the cookware in use. Using a large element for a small pan wastes heating energy, and the exposed surface of the element is a burn or fire hazard.
Be sure that all of the surface burners and grates are placed in the correct positions.
Place cookware on the grate.
Push the control knob in and turn to the LITE position to light the burner.

The electric spark ignition system makes a clicking noise.
Turn the control knob to control the flame size.
Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. All the spark igniters on the cooktop will activate when igniting just one burner. An electric shock may result causing you to knock over hot cookware.
