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.

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 to “HI”.
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 PD
Range models, air shutter for the
grill burner (NOT top burners) is
preadjusted at the factory. How-
ever, environmental or installation
conditions may require readjust-
ments. Flame evaluation is per-
formed with burner's control knob
at highest setting.
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).
CAUTION
Burner adjustments must be
made by a qualified technician
at the time of installation.
Extreme care should be used
when adjustments are made
after installation. Improper or
lack of adjustments may
cause harmful by-products or
void your warranty.
