KNOB SETTINGS

.i)

Both ExtraLow controls are push in to turn and have an infinite number of heat settings, with no fixed position s. The ExtraLow settings are between XLO and just after LO, at the detent, shown by the broken line.

HOW THEY WORK

The BTU/HR usage on the 9,100 BTU/HR burner ranges from HI (at 9,000) to XLO (at 300). The

BTU!HR usage on the 11,000 BTU/HR burner ranges from HI (at 11,000) to XLO (at 365).

There are an infinite number of settings between HI and XLO; the

control knob can be set at any po- sition.

The burner flame will pulse ON and OFF when the setting is at any position between LO and XLO.

The length of time the flame is ON and OFF varies.

With a setting just below LO, the

flame will be ON approximately

50 seconds and OFF 10 seconds of each minute.

With a setting at the XLO position,

the flame is ON approximately 10 seconds and OFF 50 seconds of

each minute.

FOR THE BEST RESULTS

Temperature control will be more accurate if a lid is used.

Bring food to a rolling boil; stir well to be sure all the food is boil- ing; cover and reduce the heat to just below LO.

Check periodically to see if the control knob should be turned to a lower setting.
