burners with 4 different BTU ratings. The ability to
heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases
as the burner size increases.

simmering delicate sauces, etc. This burner is
located at the right rear burner position on the
cooktop (See Fig. 1).
The STANDARD burners can be used for most
surface cooking needs. These burners are located

at the center and the left front burner positions on
the cooktop (See Fig. 1).
