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.

The valves provide enhanced control of the burner

flame. Each burner

lights automatically

from an electric ignitor

when its control knob

is pushed.

To operate

the surface

burner:

1. Place cooking utensil on burner.
