COOKTOP USE
10
BURNERS
Your new professional gas range is equipped with
burners typical of those used in restaurants.
These
burners are designed for maximum cleanability and
controllability. The large cap spreads the simmer heat out
to avoid too much heat being concentrated on the center
of the pan. The simmer flame is always on when the
burner is in use. The burner should never be operated if
the cap is not in place. All the cooktop burners have
electronic spark ignition to eliminate continuously
burning pilots; when the burner is on and the flame is
blown out, it will relight.
SIMMERING
Your new professional cooktop has exceptionally low
simmering capabilities. The large cap serves as a heat
diffuser to spread out the heat to avoid having a center
hotspot. Keep in mind that because of the high heat
capacity of the outer burner, and the mass of the cast iron
burner grates (they retain heat longer than lighter,
conventional grates) some foods may continue to cook
by retained heat after the burner has been turned off.
Should a strong draft or boil over extinguish the simmer
flame it will relight automatically as the main burner
would.
ELECTRONIC IGNITERS
If a burner does not ignite,
listen for the clicking sound.
If the igniter is not clicking,
TURN OFF THE BURNER.
Check the circuit breaker for
a blown fuse or a tripped
circuit breaker. If the igniter
still fails to operate, see
page 30,“Before Calling For
Service”. To light the burner
manually, see page 27
“Power Failure”.
NOTE: If you are using propane gas, a slight pop or flash
may occur at the burner ports a few seconds after
the burner has been turned “off”. This “extinction
pop” is normal for propane gas.
