burner may be lit with a match by following the
steps below.

The three cooktop grates are designed for
specific positions. For maximum stability, these
grates should only be used in their proper position:
they should not be interchanged. For your
convenience, the undersides of the left and right
grates are marked "OUTSIDE" and "INSIDE". Make
sure that the side marked "OUTSIDE" is on the outer
edge of your cooktop. Make sure that the tabs
on either side of the center grate fit into the slots
located on the "INSIDE" edge
of the side grates.
