COOKTOP FEATURES
SEALED SURFACE BURNERS
Sealed surface burners are designed to minimize gaps and
seams that can allow liquids and spills to get under the
cooktop. This design makes cleanup quick and easy.

IMPORTANT:
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap:
Always keep the burner cap in place when
using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor
ignition and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a
spillover, and routinely remove and clean the caps according to
the “Care and Cleaning” section.
Gas opening:
Gas must flow freely throughout the gas
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of
soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other
material to enter the gas opening. Keep spillovers out of the gas
opening by always using a burner cap.
Burner Ports:
Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and shape as
shown above. A good flame is blue in color, not yellow. Keep
this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning
agents, or any other material to enter the burner ports.

When using the grill, follow the guidelines below:
■
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to avoid curling.
■
Allow space between food on the grill. Crowding food will
result in uneven cooking.
■
For most even results, center foods on the grate directly over
the heat source.
■
Use a metal spatula or tongs to turn food.
■
For even cooking, foods such as chicken quarters should be
turned several times.
■
To check for doneness of meats and poultry, use an instant
read thermometer or make a small cut in the center of the
food.
■
Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking.
■
To avoid damage to the grill, do not use aluminum foil,
charcoal or wood chips.
■
To avoid damage to cookware, do not place cookware on the
grill when in use. Food should be cooked directly on the grill
grate.
