To Light a Burner:
Refer to the illustrations to the right while following
these instructions.
1. Press the knob that controls the burner (refer to
the burner indicator icon on the cooktop) and
turn it slowly left.
Each knob has its own burner indicator.
A blue light corresponds to the burner that the
knob controls.
2. As you turn the knob left, the igniter will spark
until the flame ignites. The igniter will stop
sparking when ignition occurs.
3. Once the burner is lit, adjust the flame height by
turning the knob.
The thickness of the black line under the flame
icon corresponds with the flame height.
The flame height increases as the knob moves
toward from the flame icon and decreases as the
knob turns away.
SimmerSear™ Burners
A SimmerSear burner is a type of "dual burner"
that gives a range of temperature much wider than
found in the other burners.
IMPORTANT:
When the cooktop is cool, the igniter may con-
tinue to spark if the burner knob is set to the
LOW position. The burner will stop sparking
when warm.
The tendency to spark when cold can be reduced
by using the burner at a higher flame for about
60 seconds. After 60 seconds, lower the flame
to cook. The burner will also warm up faster if
cookware is placed its grate.
The igniter will also spark automatically if the
flame is distorted by a draft or by the house-
hold ventilation system. Eliminate any drafts or
reduce the ventilation blower speed to reduce
this type of problem.
To keep the burners operating properly, keep the
burner igniters, burner rings, and burner caps
clean and dry. See Care and Cleaning starting
on page 10. Dirty or wet igniters will cause
constant sparking, even if there is a flame.
The flame should burn evenly around the rim
of the burner, except underneath "grate support
fingers", where the flame height is reduced by
Dacor’s Smart-Flame feature.
An optimal flame burns steady and blue. For-
eign material in the gas line, especially in new
construction, may cause an orange flame during
initial use. The orange color will disappear with
