SEALED BURNERS
USING THE COOKTOP
SECTION FOUR: USING THE COOKTOP
The cooktop features four or six
gas surface burners; each rated at
15,000 BTU/HR. The burners are
sealed to the porcelainized top
frame to prevent liquid spills from
accumulating below the top
surface, making it easier to clean.
On all models, the two left burners
have the exclusive ExtraLow‚
feature; the remaining burners are
standard. Each burner has its own
control knob.

Burners
The controls for the two left
burners, front and rear, have flame
settings even lower than the
standard LO settings.
The drawing shows that the
control knob has additional
markings between the LO and
XLO settings. When the knob is
set within this range, the flame
pulses off and on. By varying the
length of time the flame is off and
on, the heat is reduced even
further to cook delicate foods. For
example, these very low settings
are suitable for simmering and
poaching, melting chocolate and
butter, holding cooked foods at
temperatures without scorching
or burning, etc.
