Adjusting the oven burner air adjustment shutters
Air adjustment
shutter
All oven burners have an air adjustment shutter. The purpose of the shutter is
to regulate the flow of air to the flames. Properly adjusted flames should burn
steadily with approximately 1 in of blue cone. The flames should never extend
past the edge of the burner baffles. Even though these are preset at the factory,
they should be checked and, if needed, adjusted periodically to ensure efficient
operation.
To check and adjust the oven burner air adjustment shutters:
1.
Open the oven door.
2.
Remove the oven racks.
3.
Remove the oven floor.
Turn the mode selector knob from OFF to the Bake position, and then rotate
4.
the temperature selector knob to set the temperature from the OFF position.
5.
After the oven has lit, visually check the flames coming out of the upper and
lower burners. If adjustment is needed, carefully adjust the air adjustment
shutters.
The shutters are located at the base of the burner manifolds near the back oven
wall.

flames are stabilized.
If flames are too yellow and/or too large,
gradually increase the air shutter opening
until the flames have approximately a 1 in
blue cone.
NOTE
If the range is set up for natural gas, the
flames should burn with minimal yellow
tipping. If the range is set up for LP gas,
small yellow tips at the end of the cones are
normal.
After the flames are adjusted properly, shut
off the oven, retighten the locking screws,
replace the oven bottom and racks, and
close the oven door.
