10. Push in and turn each control knob from
the "LITE" to the "LO" setting. The low
flame should be at a minimum steady blue
flame.
If flame needs to be adjusted, turn the
control to the "LO" setting, and remove the
control knob. Insert a small flat-blade
screwdriver into the valve stem. Turn the
adjustment screw to obtain the smallest
flame that will not go out when the control
of a cold burner is quickly turned from "Hl"
to "LO." Turn the adjustment screw clock-
wise to decrease the flame, and counter-
clockwise to increase it. Repeat for other
cooktop burners, as needed.
11 . Push in and turn each control knob to the
"LO" (or simmer) setting. This setting has
been factory-set for each control and is the
lowest setting available that will provide
reliable reignition of the burner. If it does
not stay lit on the "LO" setting, check the
setting as follows:
a) Turn control to "LITE" until burner ig-
nites.
b) Quickly turn the knob down to its low-
est position.
c) If the burner goes out, readjust the valve
as follows:
Remove the surface burner control knob.
Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into the
hollow valve stem and engage the slotted
screw. Flame size can be increased or

decreased by turning the screw. Adjust
the flame until you can quickly turn the
knob from "LITE" to the lowest position
without extinguishing the flame. The flame
should be as small as possible without
going out.
12. Check the flame at the "Hl" setting for a
blue color, and a clean, soft shape. There
should be no yellow tips on the flames, or
any blowing or lifting off the burner head.
An occasional orange flash is normal, and
reflects different elements in the air or gas.
