Complete Conversion

1. Refer to the “Make Gas Connection” section for properly

connecting the range to the gas supply.

2. Turn the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line to the

“open” position.

3. Refer to “Check Operation of Cooktop Burners” in the

“Electronic Ignition System” section for proper burner
ignition, operation and burner flame adjustments.

IMPORTANT: You may have to adjust the “Lo” setting for
each cooktop burner.

Checking for proper cooktop and oven burner flames is very
important. The small inner cone should have a very distinct
blue flame ¼" to ½" (0.6 cm to 1.3 cm) long. The outer cone
is not as distinct as the inner cone. Natural gas flames do not
have yellow tips.

4. Close the oven door and turn the knob to the “OFF” position.

5. Refer to the “Complete Installation” section to complete this

procedure.
