3ADJUST BURNER FLAMES

A.Turn all burners on highest setting and check the flames. They should be blue in color and may have some yellow tipping at the ends of the flame when using LP gas.

Foreign particles in the gas line may cause an orange flame at first, but this will soon disappear.

B.Turn the cooktop burner knob to “LO” while observing the flame.

Adjust the setting of the upper row of flames using the valve bypass screw as follows:

Adjustments must be made with two other burners in operation on a medium setting. This prevents the upper row of flames from being set too low, resulting in the flame being extinguished when other burners are turned on.

C.To adjust the flame, remove the knobs. Insert a screwdriver through the access hole in valve shaft as shown.

• If the flames were too small or fluttered, open the valve

more than the original setting.

• If the flames blew away from the burner, close the valve

more than the original setting.

D. Make the adjustment by slowly turning the screw until

flame appearance is correct.

E. Testing Flame Stability:

Test 1 – Turn the knob from “HI” to “LO” quickly.

If the upper row of flames goes out at this setting,

increase the flame size and test again.

Test 2 – With the burner on “LO”, open and close the

cabinet door under the cooktop. If the flame is

extinguished by the air currents created by the

door movement, increase the flame height and

test again.

C.Install the proper orifices in the exact locations as noted in the illustrations above.

D.Return the natural gas orifices to the bracket and reattach the bracket and the instruction sheet to the pressure regulator using the screw removed previously.

E.Replace the burner bases, heads, caps and top grates.

NOTE: When the burner is on the “SIM” setting, the upper

row of flames will go out.

F. Flame Recheck:

After the adjustment is made, turn all burners off. Ignite

each burner individually. Observe the flame at the “HI”

position. Rotate the knob to the lowest setting and be

sure that the flame size decreases as the knob is

rotated counterclockwise.

Once the conversion is complete and checked ok,

fill out the conversion sticker and include your name,

organization and date conversion was made. Apply

the sticker near the cooktop gas inlet opening to

alert others in the future that this appliance has been

converted. If converting back to the original gas, please

remove the sticker so others know the appliance is set

to use its original gas.
