Your new professional gas range or cooktop is equipped with burners typical of those used in restaurants. These burners are designed in two pieces for maximum cleanability and con- trollability. The center, smaller cap covers and protects the simmer burner from boil overs, 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.

All the cooktop burners have electronic spark ignition to eliminate continuously burning pilots, when the port ring is on and the flame is blown out, it will relight. This two piece burner has a (BTU) range at the highest of 15,000 with a variable simmer that has a range between 1250-500 (BTU’S).

After cleaning, it is important to make sure the locating pin on the top side of the burner base is properly aligned with the corresponding slot in the burner base. Incorrect alignment will produce a potentially dangerous flame and poor burner performance.

When standing in front of the range, the locating pin on the burner base and corresponding slot in the port ring is located at approximately the 3 o’clock position. See the fol- lowing illustration at top of next column.

SIMMERING

Your new professional cooktop has exceptionally low simmer- ing capabilities. The center simmer cap serves as a heat dif- fuser to spread out the heat to avoid having a center hotspot. Keep in mind that because of the high heat capacity of the outer burner, and the mass of the cast iron burner grates (they retain heat longer than lighter, conventional grates) some foods may continue to cook by retained heat after the burner has been turned off.

SIMMER FLAME

The simmer burner is lit from the outside burner flame. The flame travels over the port ring and crosses over onto the sim- mer burner located just beneath the simmer cap. When light- ing only the simmer burner always light the main burner first. This will in turn provide the ignition source for the sim- mer burner. Look to ensure that the simmer ports are lit before turning the knob down to the simmer position. Should a strong draft or boil over extinguish the simmer
