6 ADJUST BURNER FLAMES
Normally, burners do not need further adjustment.
Make adjustments only when necessary.
A. Turn on the gas. Plug in electrical cord.
B. Turn all burners on highest setting and check the
flames. They should be blue in color. When using
LP gas, the flames may have some yellow tipping
at the ends of the flame. Foreign particles in the
gas line may cause an orange flame at first, but
this will soon disappear.
C. Turn the burner knob to "LO" while observing the
flame.
Adjust the setting of the upper row of flames using
the valve bypass screw as follows:
Adjustments must be made with two other burners
in operation on a medium setting. This prevents the
upper row of flames from being set too low, resulting
in the flame being extinguished when other burners
are turned on.
D. To adjust the flame, remove the knobs. Insert a small
flat-blade screwdriver into the hole in the center of
the valve stem to engage screw.
• If the flames are too small or flutter, turn the screw
counterclockwise.
• If the flames are too large, turn the screw
clockwise.
E. Make the adjustment by slowly turning the screw
until flame appearance is correct.
