OPEN BURNER FLAME ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

Note: This procedure is not required for units with sealed range top burners

PREPARATION

For safety purposes, turn off power and gas to the range while removing and installing the burner

parts.

Turn off all ventilation hoods, heating & air conditioning, and close windows near the appliance to

prevent breezes from interfering during adjustment.

Carefully clean the metal tip of the igniter electrode with alcohol and a lightly abrasive cleaning pad or

toothbrush. Dry thoroughly.

AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT

Correct air shutter adjustment is required prior to further adjustments. You will need a screwdriver

(Flat or Phillips head) to make this adjustment.

Turn power ON to the appliance.

Turn the burner on HIGH. All flames should have a sharp blue cone which just touches the burner. If

flames are lifting above the burner base, if the flames do not immediately ignite all around the

burner, or if flames are yellow or are not a sharp cone shape follow the procedure below.

Lifting Flames:

Turn the burners off and remove all burner grates and spill pans.

Using a screwdriver, loosen the screw securing the air shutter.

Close the opening of the air shutter slightly.

Turn the burner On and check the flame for lifting.

Adjust the air shutter until the flame is a solid blue cone touching the burner. Some orange in

the large flame corona above the burner is normal.

If flames do not immediately ignite all around the burner, readjust the air shutter and

retest.

Tighten the screw on the air shutter then reassemble the spill pans and grates.

Yellow tipping or weak flames

If the flames have bright yellow tips (like a candle) or the flames are weak and flutter easily at

the base, more air is required.

Using a screwdriver, loosen the screw securing the air shutter.

Open the opening of the air shutter slightly.

Turn the burner On and check the flame.

Adjust the air shutter until the flame is a solid blue cone touching the burner. Some orange in

the large flame corona above the burner is normal.

If flames do not immediately ignite all around the burner, re-adjust the air shutter and

retest.

Tighten the screw on the air shutter then reassemble the spill pans and grates.
