Burner Baffle
With the baffle removed, properly adjusted flames
should have approximately 1" blue cones and, if range
is supplied with natural gas, should burn with no yellow
tipping.. (With most LP gas, small yellow tips at the end
of outer cones are normal,) With the baffle in place, the
flames should burn steady and should not extend past
the edges of the burner baffle. Flames should not lift off
burner ports. If lifting is observed, gradually reduce air
shutter opening until flames are stabilized,
The shutter for the oven burner is near the back wall
of the oven and behind the broiler drawer_ To remove
the broiler drawer:
1. Putt the drawer out until it stops, then push it back
in about one inch_
2. Grasp handle, lift and pull broiler drawer out.

To remove the burner baffle (on some models):
1. Use a nut driver to remove the 1/4" hex-head
screw shown in the illustration above, Do not
remove any other screws.
2. Pull baffle straight out until it is free from the slot
that holds it at rear of oven.
Remove the metal shield at the rear of the drawer
cavity. The air adjustment shutter is behind this shield.
