The single burners and dual burner bases are attached to the 

cooktop by retaining screws. Gaskets around the underside of the 

single burner bases and around the top of the dual burner bases 

ensure that the burners are sealed, thereby preventing any liquid 

spills from entering the cooktop chassis. All spills remain on the 

surface of the cooktop.

 

The burner head assemblies spread the flame evenly around 

the burner perimeters. Assemble the burner head assemblies as 

shown in the diagrams.

Each burner head features Smart-Flame™ technology. When 

oriented properly by the burner head positioning tabs, Smart-

Flame™ prevents direct flame impingement on the fingers of 

the porcelain grate. This reduces temperatures on the grate 

and improves flame and performance characteristics, as well as 

increasing longevity of the porcelain enamel coating on the grate.

A burner igniter is located on each gas burner base. When a 

control knob is pressed down and rotated counterclockwise, only 

the selected burner will spark. Additionally, due to the Perma-

Flame™ reignition feature, the igniters will spark automatically if 

a flame should blow out or be severely distorted by a draft or by 

a cooktop ventilation system. Burner igniters must always be kept 

clean and dry to function properly. Dirty or wet igniters will result 

in constant sparking, even if there is a flame present.

On PGM304- Cooktops, there are a total of four burners, 

including one burner rated at a maximum output of 5,000 BTU/

HR, one burner rated at a maximum of ,500 BTU/HR and two 

burners rated at a maximum output of 9,500 BTU/HR. The knobs 

are grouped in twos. The front two knobs operate the front two 

burners, and the rear two knobs control the two rear burners

On the PGM365- Cooktop, there are a total of five burners, 

including one burner rated at a maximum of 8,000 BTU/HR 

with a minimum of 500 BTU/HR simmer, one burner rated at a 

maximum of ,500 BTU/HR with a minimum of 650 BTU/HR 

simmer, one burner rated at a maximum of ,500 BTU/HR, and 

two burners rated at a maximum of 9,500 BTU/HR. The knobs are 

positioned to correspond with the burner layout.

The control knobs provided with this cooktop are designed for 

ease of use and longevity. The “D” shaped design of the knob 

shaft ensures proper orientation when re-installing the knob. 

The PGM knobs have a triangular shape with a blue indicator 

light located on point of the knob for reference when setting the 

burner. Beneath each knob, a spill protector ring is inserted into 

the opening in the cooktop. These rings prevent liquid spills from 

entering the chassis beneath the cooktop and they also show heat 

control information. The control knobs and spill protectors are 

made of a composite plastic material that is resistant to staining.

On the dual burners, the spill protector ring shows the simmer 

setting and frames the blue simmer indicator light. See “Operating 

the Control Valves” for further information.

IMPORTANT:

When installing the burner components, twist each piece back and 

forth until it drops completely into place. The burners will not operate 

properly unless all of the burner pieces are properly seated.
