may not light or the flame may not burn completely or correctly. The appliance is
equipped with two types of burners: standard and diffusion. See the sections
below for further information on each.
Diffusion Burner Caps
Depending on the model, the appliance is equipped with between 1 and 4 diffu-
sion burner caps. They provide a more even heat, especially when cooking at
lower temperatures.
Burner Grates Warning: To prevent flare-ups, do not use the cooktop without all burner caps
and all burner grates properly positions. Do not use a grate if the feet are missing
or damaged.
There are two burner grates: one for the left side of the cooktop and one for the
right side of the cooktop. Position them so that the circular opening is over the
burner cap. Burner grates should rest flat on the cooktop. The rubber feet on the
grates should rest in the indents on the cooktop.
Electronic Ignitor The cooktop uses electronic ignitors to light the burners, There is no pilot light.
Each burner has its own ignitor. For proper operation, keep the ignitor clean and
dry. It is necessary to clean these when there is a boilover or when the burner
does not light even though the ignitor clicks.
Caution: All ignitors spark when any single burner is turned on. Do not
touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in use.
High Power Burner The high power burner is the largest burner. It is the most powerful burner on the
cooktop. It retains heat longer than normal burner caps and, at low settings, pro-
hibits the flame from touching the cookware. This results in a gentle, more predict-
able heat. Use the low settings on this burner to simmer large amounts of sauces
or soups. Use the high settings to quickly bring large amounts of water to a boil.
Precision Burner The precision burner is the smallest burner on the cooktop. It is well suited for
gentle cooking of small amounts of food. Use the burner to melt butter or choco-
late or to prepare delicate sauces.
Oven Racks Depending on model, the range is equipped with one of the following combina-
tions:
• Three flat racks
• Two flat racks and one full extension rack
• Two flat racks and one half rack
