8.5.3 Broil Burner Flame Adjustment

The approximate flame length of the burner is 1 inch

(distinct inner cone of blue flame). To determine if the

broil burner flame is proper, set the oven to broil. If

flame is yellow, increase air shutter opening size (see "2"

in Figure 9 ). If the entire flame is blue, reduce the air

shutter opening size. To adjust, loosen lock screw (see

"3" in Figure 9), reposition air shutter, and tighten lock

screw.

9. Make Sure Range Is Level

Check if the range is level by placing a level horizontally

on an oven rack. Check diagonally from front to back,

then level the range by either adjusting the leveling legs

or by placing shims under the corners of the range as

needed.

When All Hookups are Complete

Make sure all controls are left in the OFF position.
Make sure the flow of combustion and ventilation air to

the range is unobstructed.

Model and Serial Number Location

The serial plate is located on the oven front frame

behind the drawer.
When ordering parts for or making inquiries about

your range, always be sure to include the model and

serial numbers and a lot number or letter from the

serial plate on your range.
Your serial plate also tells you the rating of the

burners, the type of fuel and the pressure the range

was adjusted for when it left the factory.

systems require no adjustment. When the oven is set

to operate, current will flow to the igniter. It will "glow"

similar to a light bulb. When the igniter has reached

a temperature sufficient to ignite gas, the electrically

controlled oven valve will open and flame will appear at the

oven burner. There is a time lapse from 30 to 60 seconds

after thermostat is turned ON before the flame appears

at the oven burner. When the oven reaches the display

setting, the glowing igniter will go off. The burner flame

will go "out" in 20 to 30 seconds after igniter goes "OFF".

To maintain any given oven temperature, this cycle will

continue as long as the display is set to operate.
After removing all packing materials and literature from

the oven:

a) Set the oven to BAKE at 300°F. See Use & Care Guide

for operating instructions.

b) Within 60 seconds the oven burner should ignite.

Check for proper flame (see 8.5.2), and allow the

burner to cycle once (see cycle explanation above).

Reset controls to off.

c) If your model is equipped with a waist-high broiler

burner, set oven to broil. See Use & Care Guide for

operating instructions.

d) Within 60 seconds the broil burner should ignite. Check

for proper flame (see 8.5.3). Reset controls to off.

8.5.2 Oven Burner Flame Adjustment

The approximate oven burner flame length is 1 inch

(distinct inner cone of blue flame).
To determine if the oven burner flame is proper, remove

the oven bottom and burner baffle and set the oven to

bake at 300°F.
To remove the oven bottom, remove oven hold down

screws at rear of oven bottom. Pull up at rear, disengage

front of oven bottom from oven front frame, and pull the

oven bottom out of the oven. Remove burner baffle so

that burner flame can be observed.
If the flame is yellow, increase air shutter opening size

(see "2" in Figure 9). If the entire flame is blue, reduce

the air shutter opening size.
To adjust flame loosen lock screw (see "3" in Figure 9),

reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw. Replace

oven bottom.
