ADJUST THE SURFACE BURNER PILOTS

(for Models Equipped with Standing Pilots)

1. Raise the cooktop.
2. Locate the pilot adjustment screw. It can be
accessed through the small hole near the center
of the manifold panel.
3. To adjust, use a blade-type screwdriver with
a shaft diameter of less than 3/16

. Turn pilot

adjustment screw until pilot is 5/16

high. Do

not reduce the flame to less than 5/16

or pilot

outage may occur. A pilot flame burning higher
than recommended may generate soot (carbon
black) on the bottom of your cooktop.
