Prepare Burner Assemblies
9.1
Install Burner Caps
To prevent flare-ups use the cooktop with
all burner caps properly installed.
1. Place a burner cap on each burner head, matching
the cap size to the head size (see Figure 20). The
cap for each burner has an inner locating ring which
centers the cap correctly on the burner head.

2. Make sure each burner cap is properly aligned and
level, as shown in Figure 21. Burners may not light or
burn evenly if the burner caps are not correctly place
on the head.

To check for proper lighting:
1. Push in and turn a surface burner knob to the
sparking position. All electronic surface ignitors will
spark at the same time. Only the burner you are
turning on will ignite.
2. The surface burner should light once the flow of gas
reached the surface burner. Each burner should light
within four seconds in normal operation after air has
been purged from supply lines. Visually check that
burner has lit.
3. Once the burner lights, the control knob should be
turned out of the LITE position.
Turn on each of the surface burners and check to see
that they light properly and that the flames are even.
Adjust settings if necessary.
9.3
Adjusting Low Settings on
Surface Burners
To adjust the low setting of surface burners:
1. Push in and turn control to LITE until burner ignites.
2. Quickly turn knob to LOWEST POSITION.
3. If burner goes out, reset control to OFF.
4. Remove the surface burner control knob.
5. Insert a thin-bladed screwdriver into the hollow valve
stem and engage the slotted screw inside as shown in
Figure 22. Flame size can be increased or decreased
by turning the screw.
6. Adjust flame until you can quickly turn knob from the
Figure 22: Turn to adjust surface flame
sparking position to the lowest flame position without
extinguishing the flame. Flame should be as small as
possible without going out.
Notes:
•
Air mixture adjustment is not required on surface
burners.
•
Some models have two flames on a burner. The center
flame on these burners is not adjustable.
