SEALED BURNERS

The sealed burners are secured to the cooktop
and are not designed to be removed. Since
the burners are sealed into the cooktop,
boilovers or spills will not seep underneath

the cooktop.

However, the burners should be cleaned after
4
each use. The head portion of the burner has
a removable cap that is easily removed for
cleaning. (See page 6 for cleaning direc-
tions.)
Burner caps must be correctly placed on the
burner base for proper operation of the burner.

cooktop, located in the right front position.

This burner offers higher speed cooking that

can be used to quickly bring water to a boil
and for large-quantity cooking.
➢ A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light within a few seconds. If using natural
gas, the flame will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.
If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas mixture may be incorrect. Contact a
service technician to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by the warranty.)
With LP gas, some yellow tips on the flames are acceptable. This is normal and
adjustment is not necessary.
➢ With some types of gas, you may hear a "popping" sound when the surface burner is
turned off. This is a normal operating sound of the burner.
➢ To improve cooking efficiency and to prevent possible damage to the cooktop or pan,
the flame must be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.
SIMMER BURNER*
This burner is located in the center or right
rear position. The simmer burner offers a
lower BTU flame for delicate sauces or
melting chocolate.
* BTU ratings will vary when using LP gas.

BURNER GRATES

The grates must be properly positioned be-
fore cooking. To ensure proper positioning,
align bumpers on grate bottom with the
indentations in the cooktop.
Do not operate the burners without a pan
on the grate. The grate's porcelain finish
may chip without a pan to absorb the
heat from the burner flame.
Although the burner grates are durable,
they will gradually lose their shine and/or
discolor, due to the high temperatures of the
gas flame.
