ConveAHngto LP Gas (continued)
Check for Leaks
When all connections have been made, make sure all
range controls are in the off position and turn on the
main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detector
at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the
system.
I CAUTtON: DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK |

FOR GAS LEAKS.

When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to
pressure test the gas supply system of the residence,
disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve
from the gas supply piping. When using test pres-
sures of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply sys-
tem, simply isolate the range from the gas supply
system by closing the individual shut-off valve.
Convert Top Burner Valves
NOTE: Only valves with
these types of knobs are
adjustable.
1. Turn all of the top burners
to LOW.
2. Remove all 4 knobs.
3, With a small flat blade
screwdriver, turn the
valve set, screws clock-
wise to decrease flame
size, counterclockwise to
increase flame size.
Adjust until the flame is
about the same height as
the top of the burner.
4. Replace the knobs.
5. Check for flame outage by opening and closing the
oven door several times. If the flame goes out,
increase the flame size.
Adjust The Surface Burner Piiots :,
(for mode s equ pped w th Standing Pilots):: :;
1. Raise the cooktop.
2. Locate the pilot
adjustment screw. It can i
be accessed through the
small hole near the center of
the manifold panel.
3. To adjust, use a blade-type screwdriver with a shaft
diameter of less than 3/16 (5 ram). Turn •pilot ::
adjustment screw until pilot is 5/i6 _' (8 mm) high.
Do not reduce the flame to less than 5/I6" (8 mm)
or pilot outage may occur. A pilot flame burning
higher than recommended may generate soot (car-
bon black) on the bottom of your cooktop.
Check Quality of Flames
The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be
determined visually.
(A) Yellow flames--
Call for service
(B) Yellow tips on outer
conesmNormal for
LP gas
(C) Soft blue flames--
Normal for natural gas
If burner flames look like (A), call for service: Normal
burner flames should look like (B) or (C), depending
on the type of gas you use,
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is
normal.
