Necessary
To determine if the oven burner flames are burning
properly, first remove the oven bottom

1. Remove the knurled screws holding down the rear
of the oven bottom,
2. Grasp the oven bottom at the finger slots on each
side,
3. Lift the rear of the oven bottom enough to clear the
tip of the range frame, then pull out,
With the oven bottom removed, properly adjusted
flames should have approximately 1" (2,5 cm) 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 nor*
mal.) Flames should not lift off the burner port& If lift-
ing 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. Pull the drawer out until it stops, then push it back in
about I" (2.5 cm),
2. Grasp the handle, lift and pull the broiler drawer out.

ity. The air adjustment shutter is behind this shield. To
