Surface Cooking
High Performance
Burner -
12,000 BTU*
(select models)
Ranges with one high
speed burner have the
burner 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.
* BTU ratings will vary when using LP gas.
Burner Grates
The grates must be properly positioned
before cooking. Improper installation of
the grates may result in chipping of the
cooktop.
Do not operate the burn-
ers without a pan on the
grate. The grate's porce-
lain finish may chip with-
out 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 tempera-
tures of the gas flame.

NOTES:
•
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 techni-
cian 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 nec-
essary.
•
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.
•
If the control knob is turned very
quickly from High to Low, the flame
may go out, particularly if the burner
is cold. If this occurs, turn the knob
to the Off position, wait several sec-
onds and relight the burner.
•
The flame should be adjusted so it
does not extend beyond the edge of
the pan.
