Jenn-Air JGD8348CDP Important Installation Suggestions, Low Flame Adjustment, Pressure Testing

Important Installation Suggestions

1.Chamfer all exposed edges of decorative laminate to prevent damage from chipping.

2.Radius corners of cutout and file to insure smooth edges and prevent corner cracking.

3.Rough edges, inside corners which have not been rounded and forced fits can contribute to cracking of the countertop laminate.

4.Countertop must be supported within 3￿ of cutout.

On any burner, closing the air shutter too far will cause the flame to become soft and yellow tipped. Opening the air shutter too wide will cause the flame to blow away from the burner ports. Proper adjustment will produce a sharp, clearly defined, even blue flame.

Low Flame Adjustment

(See Illustration “C”)

This appliance is shipped from the factory with low and medium flame settings adjusted for use with Natural Gas. If further adjustment is necessary, or to re-adjust for use with LP, proceed as follows:

1.Light burner and set control knob for low flame.

2.Remove control knob from valve stem.

Pressure Testing

The maximum gas supply pressure for the appliance pressure regulator supplied on this appliance is 14￿ W.C. The test pressure for checking this appliance pressure regulator must be at least 6￿ W.C. for Natural Gas, and at least 11￿ W.C. for LP. It is shipped from the factory set for Natural Gas at 5￿ W.C.

This appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2￿ PSIG (3.5 k Pa).

This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2￿ PSIG (3.5 k Pa).

Appliance Pressure Regulator Conversion

(See Illustration “D”)

This unit is supplied with a Maxitrol Appliance Pressure Regulator. Follow the instructions in illustration “D”.

3.Insert a slender, thin-blade screwdriver into the recess at center of valve stem and engage blade with slot in adjusting screw.

4.Turn center stem adjusting screw to set flame size.

. . . clockwise to reduce.

. . . counterclockwise to increase.

5.Replace control knob when adjustment is completed.

Proper adjustment will produce a stable, steady blue flame of minimum size. The final adjustment should be checked by turning knob from high to low several times without extinguishing the flame.

This adjustment, at low setting, will automatically provide the proper flame size at medium setting.
