6. With the burner ON (the burner will have to be lit manually with a lighter), and set to simmer LOW, adjust the simmer flame down to the proper BTU level. Using a 1/8" x 4¼" (3.2 mm x 10.8 cm) flat blade screwdriver, turn the simmer low-turndown adjustment screw clockwise until the flame height is at, or below, the bottom of the cap. If the flame becomes unstable and flickers or appears to race around the burner, the adjustment is too low and the screw should be adjusted counterclockwise until the flame is stable. Repeat this step for all surface burners. NOTE: Use a knob to adjust the burner valve. NOTE: Adjust each burner individually. 7. After adjustments are completed, replace the ignition switches onto the valves. 8. Lift up on the control console and set it back into place. For a proper fit, the flange of the control console must hook over the lip on the front of the cooktop. NOTE: It may be necessary to lift valve stems to align with console holes. Complete Installation 1. Refer to the "Make Gas Connection" section for properly connecting the cooktop to the gas supply. 2. Refer to 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 burner flame is very important. The small inner cone should have a very distinct blue flame 1/4" (6.4 mm) to 1/2" (1.3 cm) long. The outer cone is not as distinct as the inner cone. Propane gas flames have a slightly yellow tip. 3.
