30 OPERATION
Medium and large burners
a
The medium and large burners are the primary
burners for most cooking. These general
purpose burners can be turned down from Hi
to Lo to suit a wide range of cooking needs.
Small burner
b
The smallest burner is used for delicate foods
such as sauces or foods that require low heat
for a long cooking time.
Dual burner (Extra large burner)
c
The dual burner is the maximum output
burner. Like the other four burners, it can be
turned down from Hi to Lo for a wide range of
cooking applications. This burner is also
designed to quickly bring large amounts of
liquid to a boil. It can be used with cookware 10
inches or larger in diameter.
Oval burner
d
The center, oval burner is for use with a griddle
or oval pots.

Using the Gas Surface Burners

CAUTION
• Match the size of the cooktop burner or element
to the size of the cookware in use. Using a large
element for a small pan wastes heating energy,
and the exposed surface of the element is a burn
or fire hazard.
1
Be sure that all of the surface burners and
grates are placed in the correct positions.
2
Place cookware on the grate.
3
Push the control knob and turn to the LITE
position to light the burner.
NOTE
• The electric spark ignition system makes a
clicking noise.
4
Turn the control knob to control the flame
size.
CAUTION
• Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around
any burner while another burner is on. All the
burners spark when any burner is turned to
LITE. An electric shock may result causing you to
knock over hot cookware.

Setting the Flame Size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat.
Match the flame size on a gas burner to the
cookware being used for fastest heating.
CAUTION
• Never let the flames extend up the sides of the
cookware.
NOTE
• The flames on the surface burners may burn
yellow in the presence of high humidity, such as
a rainy day or a nearby humidifier.
• After LP gas conversion, flames can be bigger
than normal when you put a pot on the surface
burner.

Using the Proper Cookware

• Aluminum
- Medium-weight cookware is recommended
because it heats quickly and evenly. Most
foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet.
Use saucepans with tight fitting lids when
cooking with minimum amounts of water.
