Surface Cooking
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Your cooktop may be equipped with any combination of the following burners:
Simmer Burner: best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc.
Standard Burner: used for most all surface cooking needs.
Large Burner: best used when bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature and
when preparing larger quantities of food.
Regardless of size, always select a utensil that is suitable for the amount and type
of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan.
Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Your cooktop is also equipped with 300° rotation flame control valves. These valves
provide enhanced control of the burner flame. Each burner lights automatically
from an electric igniter when its control knob is turned to the LITE position.
