Adjusting For The Proper Flame - KitchenAid KDRP487MSS Technical Education

ADJUSTING FOR THE PROPER FLAME

COOKTOP BURNERS
1. Turn on one of the surface burners and set
the flame to its lowest (LOW) setting. The
flame should be steady and the inner cone
should be dark blue in color. The size
should be approximately 1/4" (0.64 cm)
high.
2. If the low flame needs to be adjusted:
a) Remove the control knob.
b) Look inside the gas valve stem and note
the small screw. Insert a small screw-
driver into the gas valve stem and fit it
in the screw slot.

pliers, and turn the screw in either di-
rection until the flame size is approxi-
mately 1/4" high.
d) Replace the control knob.
e) Turn the control knob from HI to LO and
check to make sure that it remains ad-
justed properly.
f) Check the other burners, and adjust
them, if necessary.
