Surface Cooking
Operating Gas Surface Burners
Setting Proper Burner Flame Size
Operating Double Ring Burner
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wood spoons could catch fire
if placed too close to a flame.
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
Operating the Gas Surface Burners:
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Fig. 1).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All electronic surface ignitors will
spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has lit.
5. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size. The
control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the guides and adjust the
flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the surface control knob in the LITE position (The
electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position).
ENGLISH
The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for cooking.
Double Ring Burner:
The versatile Double burner offers a complete range of gas surface settings from the same burner location. At the lowest
setting, only the inner ring is active, providing a low flame for any simmering needs. If needed however, one additional gas
ring may be added quickly to provide a total output of 18,000 BTU. When set at the highest, the double burner may be used
to bring a large pan of liquid to boil quickly.
Operating the Double Ring Burner:
1. Push right front surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position -Fig. 1.
2. Release the knob and rotate to the lite position. Note: Although all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time,
only the selected surface burner will lite.
3. Visually check that both the inner and outer rings are lit -Fig. 4.
When both burners are lit, continue to turn the control knob counterclockwise to adjust to the desired flame size.
4. If only the inner burner is needed, continue to rotate the knob counterclockwise somewhere past grey area -Fig. 3.
5. Adjust the inner flame to desired size -Fig. 5.
