Before using your gas burners

Gas Burner Component

Component Cooktop System

The ZGW124 and ZGW125 gas cooktops are not convertible to LP gas. They are designed to operate on natural gas only.

This component has one large 10,500-BTU burner and one smaller 6,000-BTU burner.

When a downdraft vent is used next to a gas component, food will cook faster if you use a low vent setting and keep the pan covered (if recipe allows).

when the igniters are sparking.

Auto relight

The burners on this gas cooktop automatically relight if the flame goes out. This helps prevent the inconvenience of manually having to relight a burner. As with automatic ignition, all of the burner igniters spark while a burner is relighting. Do not touch any of the burners when the igniters are sparking.

The burners will relight at any setting. However, for the burners to light quickly and consistently when the gas is turned on, the knobs should be turned to the LITE position until ignition occurs.

Power outage

In case of a power outage, you can light the surface burners on your cooktop with a match. Holding a lighted match to the burner, turn the knob to the LO position.

If the knob setting is toward HI, the flame flare-up could burn your hand. Use extreme caution when lighting burners manually. Cookware should not be in place over the burner when lighting a burner this way.

Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally.

This modularity enables the seamless combination of different cooking surfaces tailored to the user’s needs.

The gas burners feature high BTU outputs that provide powerful heat when needed, ensuring quick boiling and effective searing.
