. If the flame should go out while cooking, or if there is a strong gas odor, turn the burners OFF. Wait five minutes for the gas odor to disappear, before relighting burner. If gas odor is still present, see safety note on page 2. Failure to follow these precautions could result in explosion or fire.

. Do not attempt to light the oven burner during a power failure. Personal injury could result.

Each model typically comes with multiple burners, offering a range of simmering and high-heat options, catering to various cooking tasks from boiling pasta to searing meats. The burners are designed with efficiency in mind, enabling users to achieve the desired cooking results quickly and effectively.
