IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench-tightened. Do
not make connections to the gas regulator too tight. Making
the connections too tight may crack the regulator and cause a
gas leak. Do not allow the regulator to turn on the pipe when
tightening fittings.
Use only pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LP
gas.
Do not use TEFLON
®†
tape. You will need to determine the fittings
required depending on your installation.

Check Operation of Surface Burners
1. Push in and turn the surface burner control knobs to the "HI"
position.
The surface burner flame should light within 4 seconds. The
first time a surface burner is lighted it may take longer that
4 seconds to light because of air in the gas line.
2. Check the flame on "HI" for a blue color. It should be clean
and soft in character. No yellow tip, blowing or lifting of flame
should occur. Occasional orange flashes are normal and
reflect different elements in the air or gas.
3. Repeat at "LO" position.
4. After verifying the proper burner operation, turn the control
knobs to "OFF."
If burners do not light properly:
Turn surface burner control knob to the "OFF" position.
Check that the power supply cord is plugged in and the circuit
breaker has not tripped or the fuse blown.
Check that the gas shutoff valves are set to the "open"
position.
Check that burner heads and caps are properly positioned on
burner bases.
Recheck operation of surface burners. If a burner does not light at
this point, contact your dealer or authorized service company for
assistance.
