Adjust Flame Height
Adjust Surface Burner Flame
Adjust the height of top burner flames. The cooktop “low” burner
flame should be a steady blue flame approximately ¼" (6 mm)
high. LP gas flames have a slightly yellow tip.
To Adjust Standard Burner:
The flame can be adjusted using the adjustment screw in the
center of the valve stem. The valve stem is located directly
underneath the control knob.
If the “Low” Flame Needs to be Adjusted:
1.
Light 1 burner and turn to lowest setting.
2.
Remove the control knob.
Hold the knob stem with a pair of pliers. Use a small flat-
blade screwdriver to turn the screw located in the center of
the control knob stem until the flame is the proper size.
Turning the screw clockwise will increase the flame size, and
turning the screw counterclockwise will decrease the flame
size.
3.
Replace the control knob.
4.
Test the flame by turning the control from the low position to
the high position, checking the flame at each setting.
5.
Repeat the previous steps for each burner.
To Adjust Double Burner (On Some Models):
1.
Light burner and turn to lowest setting where both inner and
outer burners are lit.
2.
Remove the control knob.
Hold the knob stem with a pair of pliers. Use a small flat-
blade screwdriver to turn the screw located in the center of
the control knob stem until the flame is the proper size.
Turning the screw clockwise will increase the flame size, and
turning the screw counterclockwise will decrease the flame
size.
3.
Replace the control knob.
4.
Test the flame by turning the control from the low position to
the high position, checking the flame at each setting.
