Sealed Surface Burner
Models - Setting
Surface Controls
The surface control knob shown below
may not look identical to the surface
control knobs on your range; it is only
representational.
Your range may be equipped with any combination of the following burners:
Simmer Burner, this burner is best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc.
Standard Burner, can be used for most all surface cooking needs.
Large Burner, the larger burner is 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 flame size appropriate to the
pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Each burner lights automatically from an electric ignitor each time a control
knob is turned to the LITE position.
To operate the surface burner:
1. Place cooking utensil on burner.
2. Push the Surface Control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the
OFF position.
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All four electronic
ignitors will click at the same time. However, only the burner you are
turning on will ignite.
3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame
size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular mark. Use the
guides and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the Surface
Control knob in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to
click if left in the LITE position.)
Placement of Burner Caps and Trim Rings or Burner Pans (if
equipped)
1. Place the trim rings or burner pan over each burner, matching the ring size
with the burner size.
2. Place the burner cap on each burner, again matching the cap size to the
burner size. The caps for the Standard Burner and Power Burners have
locating tabs that align with slots in the burner base. The cap for the
Simmer Burner has an inner locating ring which locates the burner cap in
the center of the burner.
4. Make sure each burner cap is properly aligned and level.
5. Turn the burner on to determine if it will light. If the burner does not light,
contact an authorized servicer. Do not service the sealed burner yourself.
Standard and Power Burners Simmer Burner
if equipped
Do not place plastic
items such as salt and pepper shakers,
spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on top of the range when it is in use.
These items could melt or ignite.
Potholders, towels or wood spoons
could catch fire if placed too close to a
flame.
In the event of an electrical power
outage, the surface burners can be lit
manually. To light a surface burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head,
then slowly turn the Surface Control
knob to LITE. After burner lights push
in and turn knob to desired setting. Use
caution when lighting surface burners
manually.
