Your gas range cooktop has five gas
burners. All sealed cooktop burners are of
an open-port design to provide you easy
assembly and accurate and dependable
operation. The different burner sizes ensure
you have the proper heat source for the
desired cooking job.
The right rear side burner provides precise
cooking performance for delicate foods and
foods that require low heat for long cooking
time. The right rear side burner lets you
use the LO setting for a very low simmer
setting.
The left rear side and center round burners
are general purpose burners that can
be used for most cooking. The HI to LO
settings provide a wide range of cooking
temperatures to meet your cooking needs.
The right and left front side burners provide maximum output. These burners can
also be used as general-purpose burners, but they are designed to provide quick
heat to large cookware. The right and left front side burner spreads out the heat
with a larger circle of flames.
