Check Operation of Cooktop Burners
1. If control panel and knobs were removed earlier, reinstall
knobs.
2. Push in and turn each surface unit control knob to the “LITE”
position. The flame should light within 4 seconds.
3. Turn control knob to the “HI” position after burner lights.
4. Check each cooktop burner for proper flame. The small inner
cone should have a very distinct blue flame ¼" (0.64 cm) to
½" (0.13 cm) long. The outer cone is not as distinct as the
inner cone.
5. Turn the control knob quickly to the “LO” position after the
burner lights. If the flame goes out, turn the control knob to
the “OFF” position.
6. Check each cooktop burner for proper low flame. The low
flame should be a minimum, steady blue flame. The flame
size should be ¼" to ³⁄₈" (0.64 cm to 0.95 cm) high.
If the low flame needs adjusting:
1. With the burner flame on, turn control knob to the “LO”
position and remove control knob.
2. Insert a small flat-blade screwdriver into the valve stem. Turn
the valve adjusting screw to obtain the smallest flame that will
not go out when the control of a cold burner is quickly turned
from “HI” to “LO.” Turn right to decrease flame height. Turn
left to increase flame height. Repeat for other cooktop
burners as needed.
3. Replace control knob.
Check Operation of Oven/Broil Burner
1. Open the oven door
2. Press in and turn the oven control knob to the “LITE” position
■ The oven burner should light in 20-40 seconds; this delay
is normal. The oven valve requires a certain time before it
will open and allow gas to flow.
To avoid damaging the oven igniter system, do not insert any
object into the electrode system. Do not clean that area.
3. Check the oven burner for proper flame. The flame should be
½" (0.13 cm) long, with inner cone of bluish-green. The outer
mantle should be dark blue and should be clean and soft in
character. No yellow tips (not enough air), blowing or lifting
(too much air) of flame should occur.
If the flame needs adjusting:
1. Turn the oven off. Wait for the oven burner to cool down.
2. Open oven door and remove oven racks, oven tray, and flame
spreader and set aside.
3. Locate the air shutter near the rear wall of oven and loosen
the shutter screw.
4. Adjust the air shutter.
5. Turn the oven back on and check for proper flame. If the
flame is still not properly adjusted, turn the oven off, wait for
the oven burner to cool down and repeat Step 4 until flame is
properly adjusted.
