BURNERS

Your new professional gas range is equipped with burners typical of those used in restaurants. These burners are designed for maximum cleanability and controllability. The large cap spreads the simmer heat out to avoid too much heat being concentrated on the center of the pan. The simmer flame is always on when the burner is in use. The burner should never be operated if the cap is not in place. All the cooktop burners have electronic spark ignition to eliminate continuously burning pilots; when the burner is on and the flame is blown out, it will relight.

SIMMERING

Your new professional cooktop has exceptionally low simmering capabilities. The large cap serves as a heat diffuser to spread out the heat to avoid having a center hotspot. Keep in mind that because of the high heat capacity of the 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. Should a strong draft or boil over extinguish the simmer flame it will relight automatically as the main burner would.

NOTE: If you are using propane gas, a slight pop or flash may occur at the burner ports a few seconds after the burner has been turned “off”. This “extinction pop” is normal for propane gas.
