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 ame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow ames
to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.

enhanced control of the burner ame. Each burner lights automatically from an electric ignitor
when its control knob is turned to the LITE position.

ignitors will click at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning
on will ignite.

have to be set at a particular mark. Use the guides and adjust the ame as
