Operation of Uniform Hot-Top Section
Each 16"-wide section has one control knob, which can be
turned to OFF or to any position in the range from LOW to
HIGH. When the control is set to HIGH, the hot top surface
will heat to about 700°F (370°C).
To start cooking, turn the appropriate control knob to HIGH.
Visually check that the burner ignites. The gas does NOT
automatically shut off if the burner does not ignite! If the
burner does not ignite, check and/or light the pilots (see
procedure at right). When the burner is hot, the burner flame
should appear blue and steady (some slight yellowing of the
flame tips may occur when using propane gas).
Do not waste gas and abuse equipment by leaving the
burner on HIGH all the time. During idling periods, turn the
control to LOW to keep the top warm.
When done cooking, turn the appropriate control knob to
OFF. (The pilot should remain lit).
Each 16"-wide section has two burners, each of which has a
pilot located near the front of the burner. To light the pilots,
do the following:
1. Check that the control knob is in the OFF position.
2. Lift up a hot-top section plate in order to expose the two
pilots.
3. Check that each pilot is in the correct position.
4. Turn on the gas supply to the sectional range (if not
already on).
5. Light the pilots with a match or a pilot-lighting device. The
pilot flames should be blue and steady.
