Oven Valve
The oven control has a ame safety device built into the body of the thermostat.
Presence of a gas ignition source (pilot) is veri ed by a ame safety probe. This ame
safety probe actuates the internal safety device to allow gas into the oven burner when
the oven is turned on. If there is a loss of gas ignition during operation, the ame safety
device will close off gas ow to the oven burner and pilot.
The oven burner ori ce is located on a brass injector stud at the rear of the oven under
the oven oor. This ori ce is dedicated to the gas for which the oven is to be used.
The ori ce is not adjustable. It must be changed completely to convert from one gas to
the other. DO NOT DISCARD THE UNUSED ORIFICE. It should be saved in order to
convert the range back to its original fuel.

INCORRECT AND GOOD FLAME PATTERNS
If burner ames look like A, call for service.
B or C is normal burner ames, depending on the
type of gas you use.
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is
normal.
QUALITY OF FLAMES
The combustion quality of burner ames needs to
be con rmed visually.
A. Yellow ames — Call for service
B. Yellow tips on outer cones — It is normal
for LP gas
C. Soft blue ames — It is normal for
natural gas
Incorrect: ame
lifting off the
burner
Good ame: Well-

Top Burner Height
In the pilot assembly shown, the LPG ori ce is 0.14
mm. When doing the conversion from Propane to
Natural gas make sure the pilot ori ce is changed to
the NG ori ce sized at 0.2 mm. If you leave the LPG
ori ce 0.14mm in place, the pilot ame will may be
too small to keep the pilot lit.
Oven Pilot
The oven pilot is located along the left hand side of the oven burner. It is fastened to
the pilot assembly with the thermocouple and the electrode. The ame of the oven
pilot ignites main burner gas when the oven is turned on. If the pilot ame is not
present, the ame safety device will not allow pilot gas or main burner gas to ow.
