Broil and Bottom Burner Air Ad.iustment Shutters

The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be determined visually. See the Installation Instructions and the Problem Solver sections in this book. Air adjustment shutters for the top (broil) and bottom burners regulate the flow of air to the flames.

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

(See Installation Instructions in this book.)

The shutter for the bottom (oven) burner is near the back wdl behind the storage drawer, or kick panel.

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 should not extend out over the edges of the burner baffle.

To determine if the bottom burner flames are proper, remove the oven bottom and the burner baffle.

To remove the oven bottom:

1.Remove the knurled screws holding down rear of oven bottom.

2.Grasp the oven bottom at finger slots on each side.

3.Lift the rear of the oven bottom enough to clear the lip of the range frame, then pull out.

Burner Baffle

Remove Screw

To remove the burner ba~e, use a nut driver to remove the 1/4” hex head screw shown in the illustration above. Do not remove any other screws. Pull baffle straight out until it is free from the slot that holds it at rear of oven.

The flames should have 1/2” to 3/4” blue cone with no yellow tipping. When the baffle is back in place, the flames will resettle.
