LP Conversion Instructions

ADJUST THE LOW FLAME

(SIMMER) SETTING

The top burner valves have low flame/simmer

adjustment screws accessible through the valve switches.

A flashlight may be needed to locate the screw. A small,

thin-blade screwdriver (approximately 1/8″ blade

width) is needed to access the screw.

Light two other burners and set the knobs to a

medium to high setting.

Light the burner to be adjusted and turn the knob

to LOW.

To make adjustment, remove the control knobs.

Insert a screwdriver through the access hole in

the valve switch. Engage the adjustment screw

in the valve.

If the flames were too

small or fluttered, open

the valve more than the

original setting.

If the flames are too

large, close the valve

more than the original

setting.

Make the adjustment by slowly turning the screw

until the flame appearance is correct. For the left

side, install the grill burner for the adjustment. The

left side cannot be turned down as low as the right

side if the grill burner is to be used.

Adjust the low flame setting using the valve bypass

screw as follows:

Low setting adjustments must be made with two other

burners in operation on a medium setting. This

prevents the low flame from being set too low, resulting

in the flame being extinguished when other burners

are turned on.

Testing Flame Stability:

Test 1: Turn the knob from HI to LOW quickly. If

the LOW flame goes out, increase the flame

size and test again.

Test 2: With the burner on the LOW setting, open

and close the cabinet door under the

cooktop. If the flame is extinguished by the

air currents created by the door movement,

increase the flame height and test again.

Test 3: With the burner on the LOW setting, turn

the downdraft vent fan to the HI position.

If the flame is extinguished by the air

currents created by the downdraft vent fan,

increase the flame size and test again.

CONVERTING BACK

TO NATURAL GAS

To convert the cooktop back to natural gas, reverse

the steps taken to convert to LP.

Once the conversion is complete and checked OK, fill

out the LP sticker and include your name, organization

and date conversion was made. Apply the sticker near

the cooktop gas inlet opening to alert others in the

future that this appliance has been converted to LP

gas. If converting back to natural gas from LP, please

remove the sticker so others know the appliance is set

to use natural gas.

NOTE: For operation at elevations above 5000 ft.

(1500 m), equipment ratings shall be reduced at a

rate of 2% for each 1000 ft. (300 m) above sea level

before selecting appropriately sized equipment, i.e.:

Use smaller orifices.

Flame Recheck:

Repeat the adjustment for each burner. After the

adjustment is made, turn all burners off. Ignite

each burner individually. Observe the flame at the

HI position. Rotate the valve to the LOW position

and be sure that the flame size decreases as the

valve is rotated counterclockwise.
