When properly used and cared for
your new Wind Crest Cooktop has
been designed to be a safe, reliable
appliance. When using kitchen
appliances, basic safety
precautions must be followed,
including the following:

Read this Use and Care annual
carefully before using your new
cooktop
to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons.

Begin by insuring proper
Installation and servicing
. Follow
the installation instructions
provided with this product. Have
the cooktop installed and grounded
by a qualified technician. Have
the installer show you where the

gas shut-off valve is located so that
you know how and where to turn
off the gas to the cooktop.

If you smell gas, your installer has
not done a proper job of checking
for leaks. Connections can loosen
in transit. If the connections are
not perfectly tight, you can have a
small leak and therefore a gas
smell. Finding a gas leak is not a
“do-it-yourself” procedure. Some
leaks can only be found with the
burner control in the ON position.

For proper lighting and
performance of the burners, keep
the igniters clean
. It is necessary
to clean these when there is a boil
over, or when the burner does not

light even though the electric
igniters click. See cleaning and
general care section.

The cooktop is factory assembled
for natural gas.
It should be
correctly adjusted by a qualified
service person or installer for the
type of gas with which it is used.
