COOKTOP FEATURES FlexHeat™ Burner This burner has the flexibility of two burners in one, providing heat ranges from fast boiling to precise simmering. ■ Power: Select Hi for preparing large quantities of food or to boil liquids quickly. For best results, rotate the knob to Hi in the Power range. ■ Simmer: Use Simmer to slowly cook foods or to hold a simmer. For best results, rotate the knob to the end of the Simmer range. Only the small flame will light, making this the best burner for simmering or slow cooking. A B EZ-2-Lift™ Hinged Cast Iron Grates Your cooktop comes with hinged grates for easier cleaning. The grates pivot upward and toward the back of the cooktop for easy access under the grates. The grates will stop once they are moved to their vertical (fully open) position. A 20" (50.8 cm) minimum clearance from the countertop to the bottom of the upper cabinets/appliances is needed to fully open the grates. Dual Flame Burner A. Simmer range B. Power range Accusimmer® and Accusimmer® Plus Burners The Even-Heat™ Simmer burner is for simmering sauces. Position the knob closer to Melt for a more delicate simmer level. Be sure to return the grates to their normal (down) position once cleaning is complete. The grates are removable for cleaning. To attach the grates to their hinges, insert the grate slot over the hinge pin on the back of the cooktop. Be sure to keep the grate angled above the cooktop to avoid scratching the cooktop until the grate is seated on the hinge pin. Then position the grate down onto the cooktop. A Accusimmer® Plus NOTE: The melt cap is available on WCG9 series models only. Melt: For melting chocolate or butter or an even more delicate simmer, the melt cap can be used in place of the standard burner cap on the smallest burner. Set the knob to the "Melt" position. Remove the small burner cap and replace it with the larger Melt cap for delicate simmering. For less delicate simmering, use the small cap. B A. Grate slot B. Hinge pin SpeedHeat™ Burner Use the SpeedHeat™ burner for rapid boiling, searing and frying. The SpeedHeat™ burner is the left rear burner on 30" (76.2 cm) models and the center burner on 36" (91.4 cm) models. 4
