LP Conversion Instructions

CONVERT SURFACE BURNERS

Remove all grates and burner modules.

With an adjustable wrench or an open end wrench,

remove the brass orifices.

Find the inscribed LP orifices in the holder in the

front of the electric cover beneath the cooktop.

Install the inscribed LP orifices in place of the

natural gas orifices.

Replace the burner modules and grates.

Keep all the spuds with your cooktop so you have

them if you move or get a different gas hook-up.

ADJUST GRILL BURNER

AIR SHUTTER

The air shutters for the grill burner may need to be

adjusted to get better flame appearance and ignition. The

air shutters for the grill burner are located on the bottom

of the grill burner. To access the air shutters, remove the

grill grate, and then the grill burner. Slide air shutter

backward or forward to increase or decrease the size of

the air opening. Air shutters fit snugly on the grill burner,

so a screwdriver blade may be required to make this

adjustment (see illustration). The snug fit of the air shutter

assures it will remain positioned correctly.

Air shutter

Insert screwdriver blade in

slot and twist with slight

pressure to allow air shutter

to slide easily

CHECK IGNITION

Connect electrical supply cord.

Turn on the gas; check for leaks using a liquid leak

detector at all joints in the system.

WARNING: DO NOT USE A FLAME

TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

Push in one control knob and

turn to the LITE position. The

igniter will spark and the burner

will light. The first test may

require some time while air is

flushed out of the gas line. After

ignition, turn the control knob

to the HI position and wait until the flame settles.

Check to determine if your burner flames are

normal. If burner flames look like A, turn off the

burner and make sure all parts are assembled

correctly. Reassemble and check.

Normal burner flames should look like B or C,

depending on the type of gas you use. With LP gas,

some yellow tipping on outer cones is normal.

Turn the knob to OFF.

Repeat the procedure for each burner.

A–Yellow flames

Not normal;

check alignments

B–Yellow tips

Normal for

LP gas

C–Soft blue flames

Normal for

natural gas
