BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Gas Surface Burners
Your built-in range is equipped with gas surface burners with
different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in
larger volumes increases as the burner size increases
(Figure
1).
Regardless of size or location, always select cookware that is
suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select
a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow
flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.

Burner Caps and Burner Grates Assembly
To prevent flare-ups use the cooktop with all burner caps
properly installed.
Placement of burner caps
IMPORTANT! Your new range comes with two styles of
burners.
•
Follow the instructions carefully when placing caps on
burners as shown in
Place a burner cap on each burner head, matching the cap size
to the head size. The cap for each burner has an inner locating
ring which centers the cap correctly on the burner head. Be
sure that all the burner caps and burner heads are correctly
placed before using your appliance.
Make sure each burner cap is properly aligned and level.
Turn the burner on to determine if it will light. If the burner does
not light, contact the installer. Do not service the sealed burner
yourself.
ATTENTION: Do not slide the burner caps on the cooktop,
doing so can damage the surface.
