Cooktop Burners
High Performance Burner
There is 1 high speed burner on the 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.
Simmer Burners
Simmer burners are located in the left or right rear positions. The
simmer burner offers a lower Btu/h flame for delicate sauces or
melting chocolate.
Dual Ring Burner
There is 1 dual ring burner on the cooktop, located in the left front
position. To operate, push in on the control knob and turn
counterclockwise to light the burner. Continue turning until the
desired setting is reached. The lighting sequence is: inner burner
on High, then inner burner on Low, then both rings on High, then
both rings on Low.
Power Failure
Surface Burners
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise to ignite. After burner lights, turn knob to
desired setting.
Sealed Surface Burners
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a
surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition
and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover
and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the
“General Cleaning” section.
Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil
and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the
gas tube by always using a burner cap.
Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is
blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not
allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter
the burner ports.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach
or rust removers.
1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean
according to “General Cleaning” section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do
not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden
toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a
trained repair specialist.
4. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are
properly aligned with the burner cap.
5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap
alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the
sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.
