Sealed STAR Burners
Figure 8: STAR® Brass Burner Base
The cooktop features six gas surface STAR® burners;
each rated at 18,000 BTU / HR (15,000 BTU / HR using
propane). The STAR® burners are mounted on top of
unique-shaped pedestals; this makes the STAR® burner
assemblies easier to clean.
Each STAR® burner has a unique QuickClean™ Base
feature which allows the burner and area around the burner
assembly to be easier to clean.
The two left and two right STAR® burners have the
exclusive ExtraLow® simmering feature, any remaining
STAR® burners are Standard. Each STAR® burner has its
own control knob.
