SURFACE BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
Standard adjustments to the air shutter and gas metering orifices are not possible on sealed burners.
If burner flames appear to be abnormal, check the following:
• Check gas pressure available to the burners. The required operating pressure is 5" W.C.P. Natural
Gas or 10" W.C.P. LP (Propane) Gas. The pressure reading can be taken at the BROIL, BAKE or
TOP burner orifices.
• Check for drafts entering the burner box from behind the range. Strong drafts beneath the maintop
can extinguish the burner and/or cause erratic burner flames.
• Check for blockage or partial blockage of the orifice. Inspect the orifice to be sure it has been
drilled on center and is free of debris or burrs.
• Check the burner alignment per the “Burner Alignment” section of this manual.
• If the flames blow and lift off the burner and the cause of the problem cannot be found, installing
an orifice with smaller diameter openings may solve the problem. In high altitude (above 6000 ft.)
installation, the orifices will usually have to be downsized.
MAINTOP BURNER ALIGNMENT
For proper operation of the burner, alignment of the orifice holder, orifice and air/gas mixer tube
must be correct. The alignment can be checked by placing 7mm or 9/32" nutdriver over the orifice to
exaggerate the angle. The nutdriver should stand straight, indicating the alignment and gas injection
angle is correct. A slight downward pressure may be necessary to seat the nutdriver over the “Orifice
Retainer Ring.”
If an angle adjustment is necessary, remove the burner cap, head and bowl to inspect the orifice
holder and the brackets that hold them in place. Adjust as necessary. A misaligned burner may
result in uneven flames around the burner head.
LOW FLAME SIMMER ADJUSTMENTS
Remove the surface control knob and locate the adjustment screw on the valve body at about the
6 o’clock position.
NOTE: Low setting adjustments must be made with two other burners in operation on a
medium setting. This procedure prevents the low flame from being set too low, resulting in
the flame being extinguished when other burners are turned on.
TEST THE FLAME STABILITY
Test 1: Turn the knob from “HI” to “LOW” quickly. If the low flame goes out, increase the flame size
and test again.
Test 2: With the burner on “LOW” setting, open and close the oven door quickly. If the flame is
extinguished by the air currents created by the door movement, increase the flame height and
test again.
ACCESS TO CONTROL VALVE:
The control valve for this product is not front serviceable. There is a test loop available through the
control panel that will allow a continuity check to determine the integrity of the control valve.
NOTE: Make sure the anti-tip bracket is installed correctly when pushing the range back into place.

GLOWBAR IGNITION CIRCUIT
WARNING: The “Norton” glowbar ignitor is NOT INTERCHANGEABLE with the
“Carborundum” glowbar ignitor. The two types of glowbar ignitors operate at different
amperages and use different gas valves.
NOTE: Check system with clamp-on ammeter. If ignitor glows red but circuit does not draw at least
2.9 amps, the fault is likely with the ignitor, not the valve.
NOTE: If ignitor glows, but ignition does not occur, be sure the oven shut-off valve is in the open position.
SLOW IGNITION CAN BE CAUSED BY ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
1. Blockage of primary air intake: Hole beneath the bake orifice hood must be open and free
of insulation.
2. Blockage of secondary air intake holes: Examine oven burner box (galvanized box surrounding
oven burner) and inspect the single row of secondary air holes beneath the bake burner for signs
of blockage. Also, be sure items in the storage drawer do not push against the ceiling of the drawer
area. If pushed hard enough, the ceiling will flex upward, closing
off
the secondary air holes.
3. Improper alignment of orifice hood and burner: Orifice must be pointing straight into burner venturi.
4. Improper air/gas adjustment.
5. Blockage of burner crossover slots: Crossover slots must be open and free of burrs.
6. Improper installation: Failure to seal all openings in the wall behind and floor below range may
permit substantial drafts which can affect ignition.
7. The gas control valve should draw 5 amps when operating. This can be checked by measuring
the amperage in L1 to the oven control. This can be done by removing the control panel glass
and clock/insert assembly.
OVEN BURNER IGNITION SYSTEM
The oven burners are ignited by a glowbar ignition system. The ignitor is a “Norton” style rectangular
glowbar. The bake and broil ignition circuits consist of the electronic control, an ignitor and an oven
safety valve (gas valve). The three components are wired in series for each cooking function.
The most important points to know about the ignition system are:
1. THE IGNITOR RESISTANCE DECREASES AS THE IGNITOR SURFACE TEMPERATURE
INCREASES.
2. THE SAFETY VALVE OPERATES BY CURRENT, NOT VOLTAGE.
From a cold start, the ignitor needs 30–60 seconds, with a minimum of 116 volts applied, to reduce
its electrical resistance enough to provide a minimum of 2.9 amps of current flow in the series circuit.
This is the required current flow needed for the safety valve to open and supply gas to the burner.
The glowbar should provide a steady current flow of between 3.4 to 3.6 amps in the circuit. At that
point the ignitor temperature is between 1800 to 2500 degrees F. The ignitor will remain energized
at all times during burner operation. If the ignitor glows red but does not draw at least 2.9 amps,
the fault is usually with the ignitor, not the valve. Always check the oven shut-off valve for a
“Not On” condition.
ACCESS TO BAKE AND BROIL BURNERS AND
BAKE AND BROIL BURNER IGNITORS:
1. Remove oven door.
2. Remove oven racks.
FOR BAKE BURNERS AND BAKE BURNER IGNITORS:
1. Remove oven bottom by lifting at front and sliding forward.
2. Remove flame spreader by unscrewing four hex head screws.
3. Remove air shutter shield for access to air shutter and bake orifice, if needed.
FOR BROIL BURNERS AND BROIL BURNER IGNITORS:
1. Remove lower burner shield by unscrewing two hex head screws.
NOTE: Make sure the ignitor wires are pushed back into and through the insulation to prevent
touching the oven cavity back.
When maintenance and/or adjustments are completed, reverse the assembly process prior to range use.
ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL (B)
CAUTION: Components are electrically HOT on control when voltage is connected to range.
The Electronic Oven Control system consists of the control, key panel, oven sensor, door and
lock assembly.
The key panel (control panel) and electronic control are separate components but must be tested
together.
KEY PANEL TEST
