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.
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.
Large stock pots should be staggered when used on the rangetop (see below).
Do not cook on aluminum foil or thin, disposable aluminum pans. These can melt.
Never let a pot boil dry. If left too long, the pan could melt, or damage the appliance.
Use only high-quality pans with metal handles. Some plastic handles could melt from the intense
heat of the burners.
