High Altitude Installation

This appliance has been tested for operation up to an
altitude of 10,100 ft (3,078 m) elevation above sea level.
If desired, for altitudes above 2,000 ft (610 m) elevation
above sea level, adjustments may be made. Burners
should be checked at the lowest setting, if the flame is
not stable the simmer should be increased until the
flame is stable. This can be done by adjusting the
bypass screw in the valve. If flame performance is
satisfactory, adjustment will not be required. It is required
that a Certified Professional make the high altitude
adjustments during installation.
