ExtraLow Techniques

• The type and quantity of food

affects which setting to use.

• The pan selected affects the

setting. Its size, type, material, and

whether a lid is used, all affect the

consistency of the cooking

temperature.

Operation of the ExtraLow

Burners

• XLO, the very lowest setting, is

achieved by cycling the flame ON

for approximately 8 seconds and

OFF for 52 seconds of each

minute.

• When the knob is set just below

the LO setting, the flame will cycle

ON for approximately 52 seconds

and OFF for 8 seconds of each

minute.

• To vary the amount of low heat

to suit the food and quantity, the

control can be set anywhere

within the LO and XLO range

marked on the knob.

• The number and dash

designations, shown in the

drawing, are for reference only.

They do not actually appear

on the knob. The number

indicates the position of the flame

setting as represented on the

cooking chart, pages 17 and 18,

with #4 being hotter than #1.

Star™ Burner

Components

Each burner has its own electronic

igniter that sparks when the burner

is turned on. Each burner should light

in 4 seconds or less. If a burner does

not light, check to see that the cap is

positioned correctly on the base. Do

not touch the burners when the

igniters are sparking. If a burner

fails to ignite, refer to the section on

Page 43, “Before Calling for Service.”

IGNITER

• To maintain a low or simmer heat,

bring food to a rolling boil. Stir

well, then cover the pan and lower

the heat to a setting just below

LO.

• Check periodically to see if the

control knob should be turned to

another setting.

• If an over-size pan is used, the

simmer action may occur mainly

in the center of the pan. To

equalize the temperature

throughout the food, stir the food

around the outer edges of the pan

into the food in the center.

• It is normal to stir food

occasionally while simmering. This

is especially important when

simmering for several hours, such

as for a homemade spaghetti sauce

or beans.

• When lowering the flame setting,

adjust it in small steps.

• If the setting is too low to hold a

simmer, bring the food back to a

boil before re-setting to a higher

heat.

• It is normal not to see simmer

bubbles immediately after the food

has been stirred.

• There may be bubbling when the

flame cycles ON and no bubbles

when the flame is OFF. Even when

the flame is OFF, there will be

steam and a slight quiver on the

liquid’s surface.
