12 Before Setting Surface Controls PLACEMENT OF BURNER CAPS To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation of harmful by-products, do not use the cooktop without all burner caps properly installed to insure proper ignition and gas flame size. It is very important to be sure that all surface burner caps and burner grates are properly installed and in the correct locations BEFORE operating the cooktop burners. Remember: • Always keep surface burner caps in place whenever using a surface burner. • When placing the burner caps, be sure that all burner caps are seated firmly and rest level on top of burner heads. • For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners DO NOT allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas orifice port opening. Round Style Burners The burner cap lip (See Fig. 1) should fit snug into the center of burner head and rest level. Refer to Figs. 2, 3 & 5 for correct and incorrect burner cap placement. Once in place, you may check the fit by gently sliding the burner cap from side to side (Fig. 4) to be sure it is centered and firmly seated. When the burner cap lip makes contact inside the center of the burner head you will be able to feel it . Please note that the burner cap should NOT move off the center of the burner head when sliding from side to side. Burner Cap Fig. 4 Figure 5 - Correct G5 Burner Cap Placement USING A WOK (NOT SUPPLIED) Woks with flat bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop are available in most cookshop or hardware stores. Round-bottomed woks (with a support ring that does not extend beyond the burner unit) may also be used. The metal ring was designed to support the wok safely when it is filled with large amounts of liquids (soup making) or fat (frying). Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets. Cookware bottoms must be in direct contact with the grates. Burner Head Fig. 1 Burner Cap Lip Fig. 6 DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner unit. Because this ring traps heat, the surface unit and cooktop surface could be damaged. Correct Burner Cap Placement Fig. 2 Incorrect Burner Cap Placement Fig. 3 Fig. 7
