Use and Care Manual

USING THE RANGETOP

(CONTINUED)

FLAME HEIGHT

Proper flame height depends on the size of the pan being used, and the amount of food or liquid

in the pan. In other words, don’t use a small pan over a large flame. For safety reasons, control the

flame height so that it doesn’t go beyond, or curl up the sides of your pot or pan. This behavior

results in poor heating of the contents of the pan, burnt food on the sides of the pan, wasted fuel,

etc.

Use a low or medium flame on items that heat slowly, such as glass-ceramic pots.

FLAME CHARACTERISTICS

Light blue flame - Natural gas normal flame

Light blue flame with yellow tips - LP gas normal flame

Yellow flame - Needs adjustment

If the flame is mostly or completely yellow, check the position of the burner heads again for proper

installation, and/or review the FINAL SETUP section of the installation manual for more details.

HOW TO USE YOUR RANGETOP

DUAL FLOW BURNERS

The benefit of the dual-flow burner is the amount of control and precision the burners give you,

allowing for the best results possible.

Simmer-Low is ideal for heating delicate foods without having the fear of burning, scalding, or

boiling over. Some suggestions include:

• Melting chocolate

• Heating milk or cream

• Melting sugar

• Slow cooking or braising

SINGLE FLOW BURNER (some models)

Ideal Uses:

• Searing

• Boiling water

• Large stock pots – will allow for even heat distribution under larger surface areas

Wok Cooking: We suggest a 14-16 inch [36-41 cm] wok for the best results.

COOKWARE RECOMMENDATIONS

As previously stated on page 7 of the SAFETY PRECAUTIONS section of this manual, bakeware, such

as large casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc. should not be used on the surface burners. Large griddle

plates that span across 2 burners should be used with care and on medium to low flame settings to

avoid a build-up of heat which could distort the grates or the burner bowl.
