GAS BURNERS (Semi-rapid)
Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knobs (illustrated in fig. 2.1) which
control the valves.
Turning the knob so that the symbols printed on itself point to the symbol printed on the
control panel achieves the following functions:

The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the minimum
aperture position allows simmer warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of
liquids.
To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further anti-clockwise to point the
indicator towards the position (minimum rate).
Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator
between the maximum and minimum aperture positions, and never between the maxi-
mum aperture and
position.
N.B. When the range is not being used, set the gas knobs to their
positions and also close the gas shut-off valve placed on the main gas
supply line.
