ADJUSTING THE TOP BURNER AND OVEN FLAME
WARNING
Keep appliance area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other  ammable vapors and
liquids. Do not obstruct the ow of air that is necessary for combustion
and ventilation.
Top Burner Valves
The top burners have ori ces that are dedicated to the type of fuel to be used.
These ori ces are not adjustable. They must be changed completely to convert
from one gas to the other. DO NOT DISCARD THE UNUSED ORIFICES. They
should be saved in order to convert the range back to its original fuel.
When converting the gas valves, the minimum  ame adjustment screw must be
adjusted.
Please see the supplied screwdriver in the conversion kit along with the ori ces.
The proper  ame size is approximately ¼” obtained. – see adjustment procedure
under conversions page 19.
The properly adjusted maximum  ame is approximately 3/4” high and has three
distinct cones; the kindling point, the dark blue center cone, and the outer mantel.
Cooktop Burner Operation
The top burner  ame size should be adjusted so that is does not extend beyond the
edge of the cookware. As a matter of safety, it’s recommended that you comply with
these instructions.
A high  ame on a surface burner is both inef cient and
unsafe. The  ame should always be adjusted so that
it is no larger than the bottom of the pan. Fluctuations
in  ame size could be caused by pressure variations,
improperly positioned burners, damage or debris.
To ignite the burner, depress and turn the valve knob to the left to the 9 o’clock
“position”. When a top burner knob is pressed in, ALL electrodes will spark at a
rate of approximately 2½ pulses (sparks) per second. Continue to hold the knob
depressed until gas ignites at the burner. Adjust the intensity of top burner heat in the
same manner described above.
NOTE: In the event the electronic ignition system fails, the top burners and oven
pilot can be lit by holding a lighted match near the burner head and turning the
appropriate top burner knob to the “9 o’clock position”.
