COOKTOP USE

BURNER EFFICIENCY AND FLAME CHARACTERISTICS

It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters clean for proper lighting and efficient performance of the cooktop burners. The burner flame should burn completely around the burner with no excessive noise or lifting.The flame should be blue in color and stable with no yellow tips. An improper air-gas mixture may cause either a burner flutter or a yellow tipped flame. A technician should adjust the flame. During initial use, foreign particles in the gas line, or dust in the air around the appliance may cause an orange flame. This will disappear with use.

Proper Flame Height

FLAME HEIGHT

The correct height of the flame mainly depends

on the size of the bottom of the cooking utensil, the material of the cooking utensil, the amount and type of food and the amount of liquid in the utensil. Following are some basic rules for selecting flame height.

For safety reasons the flame must never extend beyond the bottom of the cooking utensil. Never allow flames to curl up the side of the pan (see Fig. 4).

Utensils which conduct heat slowly (such as glass-ceramic) should be used with medium to low flame. If you are cooking with a large amount of liquid, a slightly larger flame can be used.

SEALED TOP BURNERS

The sealed top burners must be kept clean. Cleaning of the sealed top burners should include the igniter. The cooktop burners have an infinite number of heat settings and there are no fixed positions on the control knobs between HI and LO. To turn the cooktop burner on, push in on the control knob and turn it counterclockwise to the “LITE” position. An audible clicking sound will be heard. When the gas has been ignited by the electronic spark igniter, turn the knob to the desired setting. (The clicking sound should stop as soon as the burner is lit).

WARNING:

When turning on any cooktop burner, be sure to stop at the “LITE” position before turning the burner to a flame setting for cooking. If the burner is not lit and it is turned beyond the “LITE” position, to HI, MEDIUM, or LO, there could be a burst of flame when the burner does light. This could cause burns or damage to the surrounding countertop.
