Use & Care Manual
USING THE COOKTOP BURNERS
THERE ARE DUAL BURNERS HAVE THE SAME LOW TURN-DOWN SETTING (SIM) FOR GENTLE SIMMERING (620
BTU/HR.). USE THE SIM SETTING FOR MELTING CHOCOLATE AND BUTTER, COOKING RICE AND DELICATE SAUCES,
SIMMERING SOUPS AND STEWS, AND KEEPING COOKED FOOD HOT.
NEVER LEAVE THE COOKTOP UNATTENDED WHEN IN USE. BOIL OVER CAUSES SMOKING AND GREASY SPILLS THAT
MAY IGNITE.
NEVER ALLOW FLAMES TO EXTEND BEYOND COOKWARE OR CURL UP ITS SIDES. THIS COULD DISCOLOR AND
DAMAGE THE UTENSIL AND YOU MAY GET BURNED TOUCHING A HOT HANDLE.
KEEP HANDLES OUT OF THE WAY. TURN HANDLES SO THAT THEY DON’T EXTEND OVER THE EDGE OF THE RANGE OR
ANOTHER BURNER THAT IS ON.
TAKE CARE WHEN DEEP-FRYING. OIL OR FAT CAN OVERHEAT VERY QUICKLY, PARTICULARLY ON A HIGH SETTING.
MAKE SURE THAT ALL BURNER PARTS ARE PROPERLY IN PLACE. INCORRECTLY OR INCOMPLETELY ASSEMBLED
BURNERS MAY PRODUCE DANGEROUS FLAMES. SEE ‘REPLACING THE BURNER PARTS’ IN ‘CARE AND CLEANING’.
KEEP THE BURNERS CLEAN. ESPECIALLY AFTER A SPILL OR BOIL OVER, MAKE SURE YOU CLEAN THE AFFECTED
BURNERS BEFORE USING THEM AGAIN. FOOD RESIDUE MAY CLOG THE IGNITER AND THE NOTCHES OF THE FLAME
SPREADER, STOPPING THE BURNER FROM FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY. SEE ‘CARE AND CLEANING’ FOR
INSTRUCTIONS.
CHECK THAT THE BURNER FLAMES ARE REGULAR. THEY SHOULD BE BLUE WITH NO YELLOW TIPPING, AND BURN
WITHOUT FLUTTERING ALL AROUND THE BURNER CAP. IF NOT, SEE ‘TROUBLESHOOTING’ FOR ADVICE.
