Surface Cooking

Stainless Steel Range

Control knobs

The control knobs are in front of the burner, grille or griddle they control. The oven and griddle controls are placed slightly lower than the surface burner control knobs.

The surface burners have an infinite number of heat settings as there are no fixed positions between HI and LO.

To turn ON a surface 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.

Push the control in and turn it counterclockwise

to the LITE position.

Burners

Your new professional gas range is equipped with burners typical of those used in restaurants.

Simmer cap

These burners are designed in two pieces for easy cleaning and control.

Simmer burner

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/port ring constitute the main

Outer cap/port ring

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 cap/port ring is on and the flame is blown

 

out, it will relight. The burners are rated at

 

15,000 BTU around the outer cap/port ring.

 

When turned to the simmer setting, only the

 

center of the burner is lit, and it is rated at

 

500 BTU.
