La Cornue C9ML Range

Dual fuel means the range uses natural gas for the cooktop burners and electricity for the oven. This combination gives you the precise, instant heat control of gas for stovetop cooking and the consistent, dry heat of an electric oven for better baking results.

The range features five solid brass sealed burners that offer a wide range of heat. They start at a gentle 6,000 BTU simmer, perfect for delicate sauces, and go up to a powerful 17,500 BTU burner for high-heat searing.

The oven offers 3.81 cubic feet of capacity. While it is compact compared to standard 30-inch ranges, it is well-suited for most everyday roasting and baking needs, including a standard-sized turkey or large roasting pan.

The Flame Supervision Device is a safety feature that automatically cuts off the gas supply to the burner if the flame is accidentally extinguished. It provides peace of mind by preventing gas leaks while you are cooking.

Yes, like any high-performance gas range, this unit should be installed under a properly sized range hood to vent heat, moisture, and cooking odors effectively. Always consult your local building codes and the installation manual for specific clearance requirements.

The thaw and serve mode is a specialized setting designed to gently defrost frozen foods within the oven. It is a convenient feature if you need to prepare ingredients quickly without the uneven results often found in a microwave.
