LP Conversion Instructions
ADJUST THE LOW FLAME
(SIMMER) SETTING
The top burner valves have low flame/simmer
adjustment screws accessible through the valve switches.
A flashlight may be needed to locate the screw. A small,
thin-blade screwdriver (approximately 1/8
″
blade width)
is needed to access the screw.
Light two other burners and set the knobs to
a medium to high setting.
Light the burner to be adjusted and turn the knob
to
LOW
.
To make adjustment, remove the control knobs.
Insert a screwdriver through the access hole in
the valve switch. Engage the adjustment screw
in the valve.
If the flames were too
small or fluttered, open
the valve more than
the original setting.
If the flames are too large,
close the valve more than
the original setting.
Make the adjustment by
slowly turning the screw
until the flame appearance is correct. For the left side,
install the grill burner for the adjustment. The left side
cannot be turned down as low as the right side if
the grill burner is to be used.
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.
Testing Flame Stability:
Test 1: Turn the knob from
HI
to
LOW
quickly.
If the
LOW
flame goes out, increase the flame
size and test again.
Test 2: With the burner on the
LOW
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.
Test 3: With the burner on the
LOW
setting, turn
the downdraft vent fan to the
HI
position.
If the flame is extinguished by the air currents
created by the downdraft vent fan, increase
the flame size and test again.

CONVERTING BACK TO NATURAL GAS
To convert the cooktop back to natural gas, reverse
the steps taken to convert to LP.
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.
NOTE:
For operation at elevations above 5000 ft.
(1500 m), equipment ratings shall be reduced at a rate
of 2% for each 1000 ft. (300 m) above sea level before
selecting appropriately sized equipment, i.e.: Use smaller
orifices.

Flame Recheck:
Repeat the adjustment for each burner. 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
LOW
position and
be sure that the flame size decreases as the valve
is rotated counterclockwise.
