Dual-flame
burners
All five burners on your cooktop have two
rows of flames. These dual-flame burners
have a simmer (lower) flame and a main
(upper) flame.
When a burner is turned on, the simmer flame
will always light and stay on.
Simmering: The simmer (SIM) setting will use
only the lower flames. Use simmer (SIM) to
melt chocolate, hold delicate sauces or for
other foods requiring low simmer heat.
When holding some foods at serving
temperature (such as mashed potatoes), it
may be best to use the LO flame setting for
a few minutes before turning the knob to
simmer (SIM).
Primary Cooking: Settings from LO to HI will
use both rows of flames. Use LO to HI for all
purpose cooking.
