DURING COOKING
QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE,

NGM GAS COOKTOPS
When using a 16,000–20,000 BTU burner, fit the pan to the burner flame. At high, the flame is large for maximum output. When using smaller cookware, adjust the flame to
the pan. The flame should not extend beyond the outer edge of the pan. This improves cooking efficiency and prevents possible damage to the cooktop or pan.
Center the pan over the burner before turning on the burner
.
Use proper cookware—use pans that have flat, heavy bottoms that sit level on the grate. Match flame size to pan diameter
.
For cooking charts and setting recommendations, refer to your Use and Care manual.
Popping Noise: An audible “pop” may be heard when the burner is turned off manually. The popping may be louder with LP gas than natural gas. This is normal.
