Bosch SGS User Guide

To avoid possible injury or damage to the 
appliance, ensure grates are installed exactly 
per installation instructions and not backwards 
or upside down.

Four-burner models: When placing center grate, make sure 
the horizontal bar aligns with the horizontal, center bar of 
the left and right grates. See figure, “Four-Burner Center 
Grate Placement” below.

Five-burner models: When placing center grate, make sure 
the long center prong is located at the back of the cooktop. 
See figure, “Five-Burner, Center Grate Placement” below. 

The cooktop has one control knob for each burner. Push 
down and turn to the left to light and set the desired heat 
setting.

Failure to operate knobs properly may result in 
personal injury and damage to the appliance.

Standard Knobs

SGS models, which do not feature ExtraLow® operations, 
have only standard metal burner controls and rubber 
grommets.

ExtraLow® (XLO) Knobs

SGSX models have standard metal burner controls and 
rubber grommets as well as two ExtraLow® burner controls 
on the left front and center. See “ExtraLow Burner Control Knob” below.

The standard burner controls have an infinite number of 
heat settings. At the LO position of the ExtraLow knobs, a 
detent or notch may be felt. 

To operate: Select the appropriate control knob, push down 
and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size. Turn 
OFF by turning the control knob clockwise to OFF.
