Step 7: Test and Adjustment
Install any loose components, such as burner caps and grates, that
may have been removed earlier. Before testing operation of the
appliance, verify that the unit and the gas supply have been carefully
checked for leaks and that the unit has been connected to the
electric power supply. Turn the manual gas shut-off valve to the open
position. Check operation of the sealed gas burners, griddle and grill
by pushing and turning each knob counterclockwise to HI. Check
that the burner caps are correctly seated on the burner bases. The
burner igniters will click until the flame ignites. The two far left sealed
burners feature XLO™, causing the flame to cycle on and off when
the knob is set to the XLO™ range. This is normal operation.
EACH GAS BURNER MUST BE EVALUATED FOR CORRECT FLAME
PERFORMANCE IMMEDIATELY AFTER INSTALLATION OF THIS
APPLIANCE. In PC Cooktop models, air shutters for grill and griddle
Grill
burners (NOT top burners) are preadjusted at the factory. However,
and
environmental or installation conditions may require readjustments.
Griddle
Flame evaluation is performed with burner's control knob at highest
setting.

If the PLPKIT is used to convert this appliance from Natural to
Propane Gas, flame evaluation and air shutter readjustments must
be performed — see instructions provided with the PLPKIT for correct
recommendations.
Burner flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips,
excessive noise, or lifting of the flame from the burner. If any of these
conditions exist, check that the air shutter (grill and griddle only) or
burner ports are not blocked or clogged. Remove any blockages that
exist.
If the flame is too yellow, indicating insufficient air, adjust the shutter
more open to increase air inlet (grill and griddle only).
The sealed top burner flames should be approximately 1-1/2" high.
The grill and griddle burner flames should be 1/2" to 1". (See Fig.
13).
NOTE: No air shutter or low flame adjustment is necessary or
possible with the sealed top burners.
