Install control knobs. Check for
proper flame. The cooktop burner flames
should have a small inner cone with a
very distinct blue flame 1/4" (6.4 mm) to
1/2" (1.3 cm) long. The outer cone is not
as distinct as the inner cone. The oven
burner flame should be 1/2" (1.3 cm) long
with a bluish-green inner cone and dark
blue outer mantle. L.P. gas flames have a
slightly yellow tip. If the flames are noisy
or blowing, they are getting too much air.
If the flames are soft and lazy, they are
not getting enough air. If burners need
adjusting, see “Check operation” section,
Steps 17-22, Page 7.
