Flame Size
Never extend the flame beyond the
outer edge of the utensil. A higher
flame simply wastes heat and energy,
and increases your risk of being
burned by the flame.
RIGHT
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a
lower one to complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for
determining proper flame size for various types of cooking. The size and
type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will influence
the setting needed for cooking.
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob
accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be
greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center
will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at
once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.

Proper Burner
Adjustments
The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good
flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of
flame should be steady and sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame
is yellow-orange. To clean burner, see instructions under General Cleaning.
