B ‘1 and Oven Burner Air Adjustment Shutters

Air adjustment shutters for the broil and oven burners regulate the flow of air to the flame.

All ovens are factory adjusted for use with the natural gas used in most areas. But, since the gas in some areas may be different, you should check all adjustments described. If you are using LP gas, all the adjustments must be made.

To adjust the flow of air to either burner, loosen the Phillips head screw and rotate the shutter to allow more or less air into the burner tube as needed.

The flames for the top (broil) burner should burn steady with approximately 1“ blue cones and

The air adjustment shutter for the top burner is in the center of the rear wall of the oven.

The shutter for the bottom burner is near the back wall. Remove the oven bottom for access.
