The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be determined visually.

(A) Yellow flames—

Call for service

(B) Yellow tips on outer

cones—Normal for LP gas

(C) Soft blue flames— Normal for natural gas

If burner flames look like (A), call for service. Normal burner flames should look like (B) or (C), depending on the type of gas you use.

5.Check for flame outage by opening and closing the oven door several times. If the flame goes out, increase the flame size.

8 ADJUST THE SURFACE BURNER PILOTS

(for Models Equipped with Standing Pilots)

1.Raise the cooktop.

2.Locate the pilot adjustment screw. It can be accessed through the small hole near the center of the manifold panel.

3.To adjust, use a blade-type screwdriver with a shaft diameter of less than 3/16″. Turn pilot adjustment screw until pilot is 5/16″ high. Do not reduce the flame to less than 5/16″ or pilot outage may occur. A pilot flame burning higher than recommended may generate soot (carbon black) on the bottom of your cooktop.

With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is normal.

The conversion for standard twin burner models is now complete.
