The CG243TF/S carries the same three-burner, 24-inch sealed gas layout as the CG243T/S, but with the top set inside a raised frame rather than flush — the trim distinction that separates the two. Mechanical knobs and spark ignition are unchanged between them.
Persistent gas smell on any sealed gas cooktop, framed or not, is treated as a safety matter rather than a routine repair: leave the controls exactly where they are, do not operate any switches near the cooktop, ventilate the area if it is safe to do so, and call for service from outside the home rather than investigating the source yourself.
Key Features
- 24-inch sealed gas cooktop with three open burners
- Transitional framed trim, so the glass or steel top sits inside a raised frame rather than flush
