Page 9

Your new cooktop bumers have been preset for an "average" set of conditions. Regional variances in gas pressure and atmospheric conditions such as height above sea level may affect your initial flame performance•

When the control knob is turned on, gas enters the mixer tube and mixes with air. This air and gas mixture flows to the burner head and is lighted by a spark from the solid state igniter•

A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light within a few seconds, The cone- shaped flame will be dear blue in color with a clearly defined inner cone. There should be no trace of yellow in the flame. A yellow flame indicates an improper mixture of air and gas. If your flame does not resemble the "correct" flame as described above, follow the air shutter adjustment instructions below.

The variable surface controls for the surface burners and grill burner provide flexibility in heat setting selection,

Note: The grill can be replaced with an optional surface burner module, Model AG202.
