4. To prevent leakage, make sure the orifice spuds
are securely screwed into the gas inlet tubes.
5. Put old orifice spuds back in the bag to save
for possible future conversion.
NOTE: If an orifice spud
is accidentally
dropped, the cooktop
can be raised by
releasing the 2 front
clips with a large flat
blade screwdriver.
When lowering it, make sure it snaps over the clips.
CONVERT THE OVEN BURNER ORIFICES
Oven Burner
1. Remove oven door, storage drawer and oven
bottom. The lower burner orifice spud is located
behind the storage drawer or kick panel. (On
some models, a metal shield must be removed to
access the orifice.)
2. To convert to LP gas,
use a 1/2
″
wrench to
turn the lower burner
orifice spud clockwise.
Tighten the spud only
until it is snug. To
prevent damage, do not
overtighten the spud.
To convert to natural gas, loosen the spud
about 2 turns.
