Thermador® ExtraLow (XLO) Burners
(SGSX Models only)
The center and left front burners are enhanced with the
ExtraLow (XLO®) feature. When the control knob is set
within the XLO® zone, the flame cycles OFF and ON
automatically for varying seconds every minute. This
cycling is normal and allows you to reduce the heat even
further than the low setting to cook delicate foods. For
example, this very low setting is suitable to simmer, poach,
melt or hold cooked food without scorching or burning.
How They Work
•
The burner flame will cycle ON and OFF during each
minute when the setting is at any position between LO
(past detent) and XLO.
•
The length of time the flame is ON and OFF depends
on the knob setting.
•
With a setting just below LO, the flame will be ON
approximately 53 seconds and OFF 7 seconds of each
minute.
•
With a setting at the XLO position, the flame is ON
approximately 7 seconds and OFF 53 seconds of each
minute.
•
The knob can be set to any position between LO and
XLO.
WARNING:
Do not clean or touch any of the burners when
one or both ExtraLow burners are in use. When
the ExtraLow burner automatically reignites, the
igniter at the burner will spark.
Burner "ON" Lights
For SGS models:
An "On" light corresponds with the knob for each burner.
When illuminated, it indicates that the corresponding
burner is in use.
For SGSX models:
A light ring around each knob will illuminate to indicate that
the corresponding burner is in use.
