BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Assembly of the Burner Caps
Make sure that all of the surface burner caps and
surface burner grates are installed correctly and at the
correct locations.
1. Remove all packing material from the cooktop
area.
2. Make sure burner head and caps are properly
placed on the surface burners.
Important: The burner head has a hole which fi ts over
the ignitor. Make sure the head fi ts snugly before plac-
ing the burner caps.
Note: Unpack the burner grates and position them
on the cooktop after the burner heads and caps are
properly installed.
On round-style burners, the burner cap lip (Figure 1)
should fi t snug into the center of the burner head and
rest level. Refer to Figure 2 for correct and incorrect
burner cap placement.

Gas surface burner types
The cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners
with diff erent BTU ratings. The ability to heat food
quickly and in large amounts increases as the burner
size increases.
Small burners are best used for low-fl ame heating
of small amounts of food.
Standard burners can be used for most surface
cooking needs.
The largest burner is best used for bringing large
quantities of liquid rapidly up to temperature or
when preparing larger quantities of food. The large
burner is located at the right front position on the
cooktop.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suit-
able for the amount and type of food being prepared.
Select a burner and set the fl ame size appropriately
for the pan. Never allow fl ames to extend beyond the
outer edge of the pan.
