SURFACE BURNER ASSEMBLY AND
PLACEMENT
Position surface burner heads on top of the burner caps as shown.
Ensure the surface burner heads are flat and parallel with the
cooktop. Place the matching size caps on top of each surface burner
head. See Figure 8.

Orient the burner grates by finding the raised labels on the
underside of each grate. All grates are stamped with REAR on
the underside at the end of the grate that must be installed near the
vents and with L indicating the left grate, M indicating the
middle grate and R indicating the right grate. Place the grates
on the cooktop with ends marked L REAR, M REAR and R REAR
the correct positions. Grates are not interchangeable and must be
placed correctly. See Figure 9.

CONFIRM OPERATION
After the range has been installed and assembled, gas supply lines
have been carefully checked for leaks and the electrical power cord
has been connected, confirm the operation of all cooktop burners.
To purge any air that may remain inside the range gas tubing, it is
recommended to confirm operation of the cooktop burners before
confirming operation of the oven.
TO CONFIRM COOKTOP OPERATION
1
For each burner, testing one at a time, rotate the knob to the Lite
position. Confirm that clicking is heard and visually observe
the electrode sparking properly to the burner cap.
2
Allow a few seconds for the burner to ignite and observe flame
quality. Light all surface burners and set to the highest setting.
• Soft blue flames indicate normal operation for natural gas.
• Blue flames with yellow tips on the outer cones indicate
normal operation for LP gas.
• Yellow flames indicate abnormal operation for any gas. Call
for service.
3
For each burner, compare flame height at the highest and lowest
setting and confirm Lo heat is sufficiently low for the size of
burner being tested.
4
For each burner, rotate the knob quickly to the lowest setting
and confirm the flame is not extinguished.
5
Turn off all but one burner. With one burner still at the lowest
setting, quickly open and close the oven door and confirm the
flame is not extinguished.
6
If burner flame is extinguished during any of the above tests,
or if flames are unacceptably large at the lowest setting, adjust
the low flame setting.
TO ADJUST LOW FLAME SETTING
1
Light all surface burners. Set all burners at the highest setting
except the one being adjusted. Set the burner being adjusted to
the lowest setting.
2
Remove the knob by pulling firmly straight out.
3
Insert a small, flat-blade screwdriver into the valve shaft. Fit
tip of screwdriver into small screw head at base of valve shaft.
See Figure 10.
4
Holding the valve shaft with one hand to prevent it from turning,
turn the screwdriver to adjust flame height (counter-clockwise
increases flow; clockwise decreases flow).
5
Repeat for any burners requiring calibration at the lowest
setting.
6
When adjustment is complete, repeat the full burner operation
testing described above.
