PLACEMENT OF BURNER HEADS AND CAPS

LOCATIONS OF THE BURNERS

For the 18 000 BTU burner :
Place the burner head over the gas orifice (Figure 1). Be careful not to damage the
electrode while placing the burner head over the orifice. Make sure electrode fits correctly
into slot in burner head.
For all burners :
Place a burner cap on each burner head
(see Figure 2), matching the cap size to
the head size. The cap for each burner
has an inner locating ring which centers
the cap correctly on the burner head. Be
sure that all the burner caps and burner
heads are correctly placed BEFORE using
your appliance.
Make sure each burner cap is properly
aligned and level.
Turn the burner on to determine if it will
light. If the burner does not light, contact a
Service Center. Do not service the sealed
burner yourself.

PROPER BURNER ADJUSTMENTS

The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and
hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharply defined.
Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean burner, see instructions under
General Care & Cleaning.
