Cooktop Features
SEALED BURNER CONFIGURATIONS
On E30DF74EPS ranges, there are a total of four burners, including one burner
rated at a maximum output of 17,000 BTU/HR, two burners rated at a maximum of
15,000 BTU/HR and one burner rated at a maximum output of 8,500 BTU/HR. The
knobs are grouped in twos. The left two knobs operate the left two burners, and the
right two knobs control the two right burners.
On E36DF76EPS and E48DF76EPS ranges, there are a total of six burners,
including two burners rated at a maximum output of 17,000 BTU/HR, two burners
rated at a maximum of 15,000 BTU/HR and two burners rated at a maximum
output of 8,500 BTU/HR. The knobs are positioned to correspond with the burner
layout.
BRASS BURNER RINGS
All burners are attached to the cooktop by retaining nuts. Gaskets around the
undersides of the burner bases ensure that the burners are sealed, thereby
preventing any liquid spills from entering the cooktop chassis. All spills remain on
the surface of the cooktop.
The brass burner heads spread the flame evenly around the burner perimeters.
The burner heads must seat properly in the burner bases to enable proper cooktop
operation. To ensure proper seating, positioning tabs have been placed on the
bottom of each burner head to slide into corresponding notches in the fixed burner
base.
BURNER IGNITORS
A burner igniter is located on each gas burner base. When a control
knob is rotated more than 90 degrees counterclockwise, the ignitor
will spark and the selected burner will ignite. Additionally, due to
Vantage Flame™, the automatic reignition feature, the igniters will
spark automatically if a flame should blow out or be severely
distorted by a draft or by a ventilation system. Burner igniters must
always be kept clean and dry to function properly. Dirty or wet
igniters will result in constant sparking, even if there is a flame
present. See Figure 3.
