Installation Instructions
ADJUST BURNER FLAMES
Turn all burners full on and check the
flames. They should be blue in color with
some yellow tipping at the ends of the
flame. Foreign particles in the gas line
may cause an orange flame at first, but
this will soon disappear.
NOTE: For the 18,000 BTU/HR burner (on
some models) the cooktop burner knob
should be turned to the setting before
the lowest setting. This will ensure that
the entire burner is operating.
Turn the cooktop burner knob to the
lowest setting while observing the flame.
Adjust the low flame setting using the valve
bypass screw as follows:
Low-setting adjustments must be made
with two other burners in operation on
a medium setting. This prevents the low
flame from being set too low, resulting in
the flame being extinguished when other
burners are turned on.
To adjust the flame,
remove the knobs.
Insert a screwdriver
through the access
hole in valve switch.
Engage adjustment
screw in valve. Refer
to the illustration
below that matches
the adjustment screw
location for your
model.
•
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.

Make the adjustment by slowly turning
the screw until flame appearance is
correct.
Testing Flame Stability:
Test 1 –
Turn the knob from “HI” to the
lowest setting quickly. If the
flame goes out at the lowest
setting, increase the flame size
and test again.
Test 2 –
With the burner on the lowest
setting, 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.
Flame Recheck:
After the adjustment is made, turn all burners
off. Ignite each burner individually. Observe
the flame at the “HI” position. Rotate the
valve to the lowest setting and be sure that
the flame size decreases as the valve is
rotated counterclockwise.
TO CONVERT THE COOKTOP BACK TO
NATURAL GAS, REVERSE THE STEPS
UNDER MAKING THE LP CONVERSION.
Once the conversion is complete and
checked ok, fill out the LP 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 to LP gas. If converting back
to natural gas from LP, please remove the
sticker so others know the appliance is set
to use natural gas.
