Cooktop Controls
Professional Dual Fuel Range
Push the control knob in and turn it
counterclockwise to the LITE position. After the burner ignites, turn the knob to adjust
the flame size.
To turn a burner off, turn the knob clockwise,
as far as it will go, to the OFF position.
• Do not operate a burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the grate.
The finish on the grate may chip without
cookware to absorb the heat.
• The indicator light on each bezel verifies the
burner is on. However, it should not be a
substitute for visually checking the flame at
the burner.
Electronic
ignition &
automatic
reignition The range is equipped with electronic ignition
which eliminates the need for a standing pilot
light.
The burners on this range will automatically
relight if the flame goes out.
All surface burner igniters will spark and make
clicking sounds when any burner is turned on.
Do not touch any of the burners when igniters
are clicking.
Occasionally the burners may spark if excess
wind or a draft blows the flame away from the
burner’s flame sensor.
The griddle and IR (infrared) grill are equipped
with Glo-Bar igniters. The Glo-Bar remains
energized whenever the griddle or IR grill is in
use to ensure the burner always stays lit.
In case of a power outage, you can light the
surface burners on your cooktop with a match.
Hold a lighted match to the burner, then turn the
knob to the LOW position. Use extreme caution
when lighting burners this way.
Do not attempt to light the grill or griddle during
a power outage. The gas to these burners will
automatically shut off during a power outage.

Dual-flame
stacked
burners All surface burners on your range have two sets
of flames stacked one on top of the other; the
dual-flame burners have a lower (simmer) flame
and a upper (main) flame.
When a burner is turned on, the lower flame
will always light and stay on.
Simmering:
The stacked burner design provides a wide
range of heat settings with which to simmer.
Depending on the type and quantity of food,
and pan size, the flame can be adjusted to suit
your specific need. The lowest setting uses only
the lower flame and can maintain delicate foods
at a safe 140°F.
Cooking:
Settings from LO to X-HI will use both upper and
lower flames. Use LO to HI for all purpose
cooking. Use HI or X-HI (highest setting) with
larger diameter cookware.

X-HI and HI are very high heat settings and
are intended to sear foods quickly and boil
large quantities of water.
