FLAME CLEARANCE AND POT SIZES
Space is always at a premium on a boat and the Dickinson Two Burner Drop In Cooktop gives
you the most versatility and the most powerful burners available in a marine cooktop format. For
your safety and for the good maintenance of the appliance, use the appropriate size pots for the
right and left burners. On the left, a pot with a 10 inch base is appropriate. On the right hand side
it is best not to use pots or pans with bottoms greater than 6 inches in diameter.
BURNER SAFETY FLAME-OUT
Each burner is equipped with a thermo-couple safety sensor. Should the flame accidentally be
extinguished the sensor will automatically turn-off the gas supply to the burner. In addition,
should the burner not ignite on start-up the gas will not continue to flow to the burner when the
control knob is released.
BURNER IGNITER
The burner igniter is located on each burner and is activated by a battery generator. (Battery
Included – 9v) This igniter box is located under the control panel of the appliance below the
burner control knobs. To replace the battery pull off the knobs and remove the cover plate by
removing the two securing screws. Unscrew the large black plastic knob on the battery holder.
Replace battery.
BURNER FENCE
Due to the constricted space available on a boat and in marine appliances, a heat shield fence has
been installed between the right hand burner and the control knob. This allows the knobs to stay
cool to the touch while the appliance is in use. Please be careful not to touch the fence or handle
it until the appliance has cooled off.
GAS CONTROL VALVES
This appliance is equipped with CGA/AGA approved quality gas valves that offer both
electronic ignition and thermocouple flameout safety features.

Connect the gas line to the 3/8" flare connector of the cook top with copper or an approved hose.
During this procedure some particles may get into the fuel line. These could block or restrict the
burner orifices.
