Oven Valve
The oven control has a ame safety device built into the body of the thermostat.
Presence of a gas ignition source (pilot) is veried by a ame safety probe. This ame
safety probe actuates the internal safety device to allow gas into the oven burner
when the oven is turned on. If there is a loss of gas ignition during operation, the ame
safety device will close off gas ow to the oven burner and pilot.
The oven burner orice is located on a brass injector stud at the rear of the oven
under the oven oor. This orice is dedicated to the gas for which the oven is to be
used. The orice is not adjustable. It must be changed completely to convert from one
gas to the other. DO NOT DISCARD THE UNUSED ORIFICE. It should be saved in order
to convert the range back to its original fuel.

INCORRECT AND GOOD FLAME PATTERNS
If burner ames look like A, call for service.
B or C is normal burner ames, depending on the type of
gas you use.
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is
normal.
QUALITY OF FLAMES
The combustion quality of burner ames needs to be
conrmed visually.
A. Yellow ames — Call for service
B. Yellow tips on outer cones — It is normal for
LP gas
C. Soft blue ames — It is normal for natural
gas
Incorrect: ame

Top Burner Height
In the pilot assembly shown below, the LPG orice is
0.14 mm. When doing the conversion from Propane to
Natural gas make sure the pilot orice is changed to
the NG orice sized at 0.2 mm. If you leave the LPG
orice 0.14 mm in place, the pilot ame will may be
too small to keep the pilot lit.
Oven Pilot
The oven pilot is located along the left hand side of the oven burner. It is fastened to the
pilot assembly with the thermocouple and the electrode. The ame of the oven pilot
ignites main burner gas when the oven is turned on. If the pilot ame is not present, the
ame safety device will not allow pilot gas or main burner gas to ow.
