Section Four: USING THE COOKTOP
Sealed Burners
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 stainless steel
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.

OPERATION OF THE
BURNERS
• Press in on the knob and turn it
counter-clockwise to the HI
setting.
• The igniter for the selected
sealed burner clicks and
sparks.
• After flame ignition, the igniter
stops clicking.
• Rotate the knob to any flame
setting between HI and LO.
• The Blue Burner Signal Light,
between the burners, will light
when adjacent burners are lit.
They will remain on until the
burner is turned off.

to
15,000 BTU

ExtraLow®
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 an additional
range between the LO and XLO
settings. When the knob is set
within this range, the flame cycles
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.
