Cooktop Burners
Professional Outdoor Grills & Cooktops
Cooktop
burners
(on some models)
Some grills have cooktops with two surface
burners. Each surface burner is rated at
15,000 BTU and has a spark igniter for efficient
lighting.
The burner grates are cast iron for durability.
The two (2) center sections are reversible,
allowing the use of a wok.
Each cooktop comes with a stainless steel cover
which doubles as a work surface. When using
the grill main burners with the side burner
cooktop cover in place, heat can conduct from
the grill section and cause the cooktop cover
to heat up and become too hot to touch.
Allow to cool before removing.
Never attempt to light the cooktop burners
with the cooktop cover in place.
Cover the cooktop burners with the stainless steel
cover when not in use.
To light a
cooktop
burner
(on some models)
First remove the cooktop cover and any cooking
utensils from the cooktop grates.
CAUTION:
The cooktop cover may be hot if the grill burners
have been in operation.
Push and turn the control knob to the LITE
position until the burner is lit or 4 seconds pass.
If the burner doesn’t ignite, wait 5 minutes for
any accumulated gas to dissipate; then try again.
If the burner will not light after several attempts,
wait 5 minutes. The burner can be lit by holding
a lit match next to the burner ports and turning
the control knob to the LITE position.
Flame
height
The correct height of the flame depends
on the size and material of the pan being used,
the food being cooked and how much liquid
is in the pan.
• The flame should never extend beyond
the bottom of the pan.
• Pans that conduct heat slowly (such as glass-
ceramic) should be used with low or medium
flame unless you are cooking with a large
amount of liquid.
Note: The flame size on a gas burner should match the cookware
you are using.
