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.

• 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.

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 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.
