Lighting the Electronic Igniters
The cooktop burners use electronic igniters in place of standing
pilots. When the cooktop control knob is pushed in and turned to
the HI position, the system creates a spark to light the burner.
This sparking continues until a flame is present.
To Check Operation of the Cooktop Burners:
1. Push in and turn knobs to the HI position. The cooktop
burner flame should light within 4 seconds.
2. Turn the knobs to the OFF position.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the LO and SIMMER positions.
4. If burners do not light properly, turn the control knob to the
OFF position. Make sure the burner base and burner cap are
in their proper position.
5. Check that the power supply cord is plugged in and circuit
breaker has been tripped or household fuse has not blown.
6. Check that the shutoff valve is in the ON position.
7. Check burner operation again.
If one or all of the burners do not light at this point, see
“Assistance or Service” section in the Use and Care Guide.
Low Flame Height Adjustment
Each burner flame has been factory set to the lowest position
available to provide reliable and constant reignition of the burner.
However, each burner can be adjusted.
For LP gas conversion:
Tighten (clockwise) screw “C” snugly to set the minimum
flame height. Do not adjust for a higher flame.
For Natural gas conversion:
Tighten (clockwise) screw “C” to reduce flame height. Loosen
(counterclockwise) screw to increase flame height.
To Adjust:
The flame can be adjusted using the adjustment screws
underneath the control knob.
1. Set the burner flame to LO.

3. For single valves, hold the knob stem with a pair of pliers. Use
a
³⁄₃₂
" (#0 [2.0 mm]) flat-blade screwdriver to turn the screw
located within the shaft of the control knob stem until the
