Step 9: Test and Adjustment
Install any loose components,
such
as burner
caps
and grates,
that
may have been removed
earlier.
Be certain
that burner
caps seat
properly
into the alignment
slots in
the burner
bases.
Before
testing
operation
of the appliance,
verify
that the unit and the gas supply
have
been
carefully
checked
for
leaks and that the unit has been
connected
to the electrical
power
supply. Turn the manual gas shut-
off valve to the open position. Check
operation
of the sealed
gas burn-
ers and grill by pushing and turning
each knob counterclockwise

The burner
igniters
will click until
the flame ignites.
The two far left
sealed
burners
feature
XLO ®,
causing
the flame to cycle on and
off when the knob is set to the XLO
range. This is normal operation.
EACH
GAS BURNER
MUST
BE
EVALUATED
FOR
CORRECT
FLAME
PERFORMANCE
IMME-
DIATELY
AFTER
INSTALLATION
OF
THIS
APPLIANCE.
In

If the PLPKIT
is used to convert
this appliance
from Natural to Pro-
pane Gas, flame
evaluation
and
air shutter
readjustments
must be
performed--see
instructions
pro-
vided with the PLPKIT for correct
recommendations.
Burner flames should be blue and
stable with no yellow tips, exces-
sive noise, or lifting of the flame
from the burner.
If any of these
conditions
exist, check that the air
shutter
(grill only) or burner ports
are
not
blocked
or
clogged.
Remove any blockages
that exist.
If the flame is too yellow, indicating
insufficient
air, increase
the shut-
ter opening to increase air inlet (grill
only).
The
sealed
top
burner
flames
should be approximately
1"to 1-1/2"
high. The grill flames
should
be as

To Clean and protect
Exterior
Surfaces
The
stainless
steel
surfaces
may
be cleaned
by
wiping
with a damp
soapy
cloth,
rinsing
with clear
water
and drying
with a soft
cloth to avoid
water
marks. Any mild glass cleaner will remove fingerprints
and smears.
For discolorations
or deposits
that persist, refer to the
Care and Use Manual.
To polish and protect the stainless steel, use a cleaner/
polish such as Stainless
Steel Magic ®.
DO NOT allow deposits
to remain for long periods of
time.
DO NOT use ordinary
steel wool or steel brushes.
Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface causing
rust.
DO NOT allow salt solutions,
disinfectants,
bleaches
or cleaning
compounds
to remain
in contact
with
stainless
steel for extended
periods.
Many of these
compounds
contain
chemicals
which
could
prove
harmful. Rinse with water after exposure
and wipe dry
with a clean cloth.
