Control
The control knobs are in front of the burner,
grille or griddle (on some models) they control.
knobs
The burners have an infinite number of heat
settings as there are no fixed positions between
HI and LO.
To turn ON a burner, push the control in, then
turn it counterclockwise to the LITE position.
Check to be sure the burner you turned on is the
one you want to use.
You will hear the ignitor click. When the gas is
ignited all around the burner and into the central
simmer burner below the simmer cap, turn the
knob back to the desired setting.
When using the simmer burner always ensure
that it lights from the main burner.
Burners
Your new professional gas cooktop is equipped
with burners typical of those used in restaurants.
These burners are designed in three pieces for
easy cleaning and control.
The center, smaller cap covers and protects the
simmer burner from boilovers that could put the
flame out. This cap also spreads the simmer
burner heat out to avoid too much heat being
concentrated on the center of the pan.
The simmer burner is always on when the burner
is in use. The burner should never be operated if
the simmer cap is not in place.
The outer cap and brass port ring constitute the
main burner and are in operation between the HI
and LO settings.
The burners have electronic spark ignition to
eliminate continuously burning pilots. When the
outer ring is on and the flame is blown out, it will
relight. The burners are rated at 15,000 BTU
around the outer ring. When turned to the
simmer setting, only the center of the burner is
lit, and it is rated at 500 BTU.
