Standard and Dual Flame Burners

■Burner caps and spreaders are included with your cooktop.

■Always match the burner spreader size to the cap size.

■Always line up the hole in the spreader to the electrode.

■The cooktop comes with an extra Melt cap. This is a large cap with “MELT” and “FOR SMALLEST BURNER” printed on it. Use this cap over the small burners, position C on KGCS3 series models and position A on KCGS5 series and KCGS9 series models

■Standard and dual flame burners are similar in assembly. Note that there is no hole in the dual flame burner spreader to insert the electrode. The stacked burner electrode (C) aligns with the semicircle notch in the spreader (B).
