MAKING THE LP CONVERSION (CONT.)
[]
ADJUST BURNER FLAMES
Turn all burners full on and check the flames.
They should be blue in color with some yellow
tipping at the ends of the flame. Foreign
particles in the gas line may cause an orange
flame at first, but this will soon disappear.
r_
Turn the cooktop burner knob to the lowest
setting while observing the flame.
Adjust the low flame setting using the valve bypass
screw as follows:
Low-setting
adjustments
must be made with two
other burners in operation
on a medium setting.
This prevents the low flame from being set too low,
resulting in the flame being extinguished
when
other burners are turned on.

To adjust the flame,
remove the knobs. Use
screwdriver
to remove
valve stem plugs as
shown.
Insert a screwdriver
through
the access hole
in valve switch. Engage

screws,
one for the left rear
burner and one for the
left front burner during
griddle control. Griddle
control must be turned

Testing Flame Stability:
Test 1 - Temporarily
replace knobs. Turn the
knob from "HI" to the lowest setting
quickly. If the flame goes out at the
lowest setting, increase the flame size
and test again.
Test 2 - With the burner on the lowest setting,
open and close the cabinet door
under the cooktop. If the flame is
extinguished
by the air currents
created by the door movement,
increase the flame height and test
again.
El
Flame Recheck:
After the adjustment
is made, turn all burners off.
Ignite each burner individually.
Observe the flame
at the "HI" position. Rotate the valve to the lowest
setting and be sure that the flame size decreases
as the valve is rotated counterclockwise.
TO CONVERT THE COOKTOP BACK TO NATURAL
GAS, REVERSETHE STEPS UNDER MAKING THE LP
CONVERSION.
Once the conversion
is complete
and checked ok,
replace valve stem plugs and knobs, and fill out
the LP sticker. Include your name, organization
and
date conversion
was made. Apply the sticker near
the cooktop gas inlet opening to alert others in
the future that this appliance
has been converted
to LP gas. If converting
