2. Provide an adequate gas supply.
This unit is pre-set to operate on 4" natural gas manifold
pressure. A convertible pressure regulator is connected to
the manifold and MUST be connected in series with the gas
supply line. If the LP/Propane conversion kit has been used,
follow instructions provided with the kit for converting the
pressure regulator to LP/Propane use.
Care must be taken during installationof range nottoobstruct
the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the
regulator should be no more than 14 inches of water column
pressure. The inlet pressure to the regulator must be at least
1 inch greater than regulator manifold pressure. Examples: If
regulator is set for natural gas 4 inch manifold pressure, inlet
pressure must be at least 5 inches; if regulator has been
converted for LP/Propane gas 10 inch manifold pressure,
inlet pressure must be at least 11 inches.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to
the instructions in step 4g.
The gas supply line should be 1/2" or 3/4" I.D.

3. Seal the openings.
Seal any openingsinthe wall behindthe rangeand inthe floor
under the range after gas supply line is installed.
4. Connect the range to the gas supply.

(SelfClean Models)

Adjust flame until you can quickly turn knob from LITE to
LOWEST POSITION without extinguishing the flame. Flame
should be as small as possible without going out.
Note: Air mixture adjustment is not required on surface
burners.

The approximate flame length of the oven burner is 1 inch
(distinct inner, blue flame).

Operation of Oven Burners and
Oven Adjustments

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.

9. Electric Ignition Burners

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 the burner flame
can be observed.

Operation of electric igniters should be checked after range
and supply line connectors have been carefully checked for
leaks and range has been connected to electric power.
The oven burner is equipped with an electric control system
as well as an electric oven burner igniter. If your model is
equipped with a waist-high broil burner, it will also have an
electric burner igniter. These control 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 the thermostat is turned ON before the
flame appears at the oven burner. When the oven reaches
the dial setting, the glowing igniter will go off. The burner
flame will go "out" in 20 to 30 seconds after the igniter goes
"OFF." To maintain any given oven temperature, this cycle
will continue as long as the dial (or display) is set to operate.

If the flame is yellow in color, increase air shutter opening
size. (See "2" in illustration below.) If the flame is a distinct
blue, reduce the air shutter opening size.
To adjust loosen lock screw (see "3" illustration below),
reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw. Replace oven
bottom.
