Broil and Oven Burner
Air Adjustment Shutters
Air adjustment shutters for the top and bottom burners
regulate the flow of air to the flames.
The air adjustment shutter for the top burner is in the
center of the rear wall of the oven.
The shutter for the bottom burner is near the back wall
behind the kick panel.
To adjust the flow of air to either burner, loosen the
Phillips head screw and rotate the shutter to allow
more or less air into the burner tube as needed.
The flames for the top (broil) burner should burn
steady with approximately 1" blue cones and should
not extend out over the edges of the burner baffle ,
To determine if the bottom burner flames are prop­
er, remove the oven bottom (see page 9) and the
burner baffle.
flamove Screw „
To remove the burner baffle, use a nut driver to
remove the 1/4" hex head screw shown in the illustra­
tion above. Do not remove any other screws. Pull baf­
fle straight out until it is free from the slot that holds it
at rear of oven.
The flames should have 1/2" to 3/4" blue cones with
no yellow tipping. When the baffle is back in place, the
flames will resettle.
Visually check the color of the flames every six
months. If they look like illustration (A) on page 34,
call for service.
