Lighting the Electronic Igniters
The cooktop burners use electronic igniters in place of standing
pilots. When the cooktop control knob is pushed in, the system
creates a spark to light the burner. This sparking continues until
the control knob is turned to the desired setting.
To Check Operation of the Cooktop Burners:
1. Push in and turn knobs to the ignition position (see the User
Guide for additional information). The cooktop burner flame
should light within 4 seconds. The first time a burner is lit, it
may take longer than 4 seconds to light because of air in the
gas line. Do not leave the knob in the ignition position after
the burner lights.
2. If burners do not light properly, turn the control knob to the
Off position. Make sure the burner caps are in the proper
position.
3. Check that the power supply cord is plugged in. Check that
the circuit breaker has not tripped or the household fuse has
not blown.
4. Check that the shutoff valve is in the open position.
5. Check burner operation again.
If one or all of the burners do not light at this point, see
“Assistance or Service” section in the User Guide.
Flame Height Adjustment
Each burner flame has been factory set to the lowest position
available to provide reliable and constant reignition of the burner.
However, each burner can be adjusted.
NOTE: If your model number begins with KGCS5 or KGCS9, call
service, as this operation will require opening the unit.
To Adjust:
The flame can be adjusted using the adjustment screws
underneath the control knob.
NOTE: Check the Use and Care Guide for information on each
burner to determine whether they are single or dual flame. Adjust
the valves accordingly.

3. Hold knob stem with a pair of pliers. Use a ³⁄₃₂" (#0 [2.0 mm])

size.
