1. Remove the grates, burner caps and burner heads.
2. Using the torxdriver, remove the burner bases by
unscrewing the 3 small screws in each base. Lift
the burner straight out.
DO NOT disconnect the wires from the burner
bases unless the cooktop needs to be raised..
3. Remove the brass orifice spud under each burner
base by unscrewing the spud from the fitting with a
7 mm or a small adjustable wrench (depending on
the size of your spuds). Apply a 3/4" wrench to
the hex on the gas inlet tube as a back-up when
removing spud to prevent the aluminum tube
from twisting.
4. Install orifice spuds acc_ording to one of the
following diagrams (see L_ or LSJ), for LP gas or
natural gas, depending on which you are converting
to.
r_ orifice Spuds for Converting to LP Gas:
LP orifice spuds are in a small plastic bag packed with
this Use and Care manual LP orifice spuds have a 2-
digit number and the letter "L" on one side. Each ori-
fice spud wilt also have 1 or 2 grooves on one side,
denoting the location on the range where it is to be
installed as shown below

[_] Orifice Spuds for Converting to Natural Gas:
Natural gas orifice spuds have a 3-digit number on
one side. Each orifice spud will also have 1, 2 or 3
grooves on one side with the letter "N" underneath,
denoting the location on the range where it is to be
installed as shown below.

5. To prevent leakage, make sure the orifice spuds
are securely screwed into the gas inlet tubes. Use a
small wrench to hold the inlet tube hex to prevent it
from twisting
6. Put old orifice spuds back in the bag to save for
possible future conversion.
NOTE: If an orifice spud is
accidentally dropped, the
cooktop can be raised by
disengaging the 2 front
clips with a large flat blade
screwdriver.
DO NOT attempt to raise the cooktop without
removing all 4 burner bases.
If wires were disconnected to remove the cooktop,
feed wires through the burner holes in the cooktop.
Attach to each burner electrode terminal carefully,
making sure not to bend the terminal.. Then lower
cooktop until it snaps over the clips.,
Tall Screw
7. Carefully insert burner bases straight down with the
tube over the orifice spud. Replace the screws,
making sure the tall screw is opposite the burn-
er electrode in each burner base.
