Page. 15

Checking the flame and burner

performance

Checking the STAR

burner performance

9 WARNING

When cooking with the STAR burners, the burner

flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend

beyond the edge of the cooking utensil. This

instruction is based on safety considerations.

To observe the burner flames, it may be necessary to turn

off lights or close window blinds to darken the room for

easier viewing of the flame.

Reassemble the rangetop as follows:

TIP: Use the burner venturi as a centering guide when

remounting the burner pedestals. If the pedestals are

centered, the venturi will slide in and out easily after the T-

30 torx head screw has been secured. If the pedestals are

not centered properly, loosen the mounting screw and

recenter the burner until the venturi slides freely.

Checking the STAR burner ignition and flame

1. Push in the burner control knob and turn it to “HI”.

• The igniter electrode and spark module will

produce a clicking sound. Once the air has been

purged from the supply lines, the burner should

light within four seconds.

• The flames should be stable, with no excessive

noise. The inner cones of the individual flames

should be defined and separate from each other.

Portions of the flame, along the burner, should not

exhibit excessive or continuous indications of

“lifting” or “lazy flame”.

NOTE: It is normal for slight yellow tipping of the flames

to appear after a few minutes of operation using Propane

(LP) gas. Orange-colored streaks in the flame are

produced from burning airborne debris; this is normal

during initial start up and should dissipate within a few

minutes of operation.

5. Adjust the burner’s control valve to LO to see that the

flame continues to wrap around the burner. Blow out

the flame, or use a quick fan motion from a writing

tablet or piece of cardboard to extinguish the flame,

and then observe the burner’s ability to reignite and

wrap around (also called “carry-over”) the burner

within several seconds. This flame “carry-over” is

essential for proper burner ignition and re-ignition.

6. Test re-ignition of the XLO and observe the carry-over

of the small simmer flames as the XLO system cycles

the burners on and off.

• If the low flame performance is not acceptable it

may be necessary to readjust the valve screw for a

STAR

burner that does not have sufficient carry-

over of the low flame. Turn the valve screw very

slightly counter-clockwise until carry-over of the

flame is acceptable. (See “Setting the STAR®

burner valve screws” on page 16.)

• If the burner flame is uneven, flutters, makes

excessive noise, or lifts, some of the slots in the

burner base may be blocked with food spillage or

other debris.

• Clogged slots can be cleared using a straightened

paper clip, needle, or similar object. Hard-to-

remove, encrusted food or debris can sometimes

be removed using a steel wool pad or fine wire

brush.

• Burner flames that are “lazy”, with excessively-

long flames, can be created by an incorrectly

fitted burner cap—from which many of the outer

mantles of the individual flames will tend to

“coalesce” or blend together. Verify that the

burner cap is seated properly on its burner base.

The cap should fit reasonably flat when correctly-

positioned on the base and not rock significantly.

7. Repeat the ignition and flame test procedures for

each rangetop STAR burner.

Setting the STAR

burner

valve screws

To set the burner valve screws

1. Remove the knob from the valve stem by slowly

pulling knob straight out, away from the control panel.

Correct burner cap Incorrect burner cap

Star

A flat-head screwdriver with an

1/8" [3.0 mm] wide, .020"

[0.50 mm] thickness tip

(included) is used to adjust the

valve screws.

2. Remove the bezel-mounting

screw located to the right of

the valve stem, using a T-20

torx screwdriver.

3. Insert included 1/8''

flat-blade

screwdriver into the

hole of the bezel

mounting screw.

Access to the valve

screws through the

clearance hole in the

spark module. You

should feel the

engagement of the

screwdriver and the

valve screw.

4. Adjust the valve screw by turning the valve screw

about an 1/8

turn. Turn the screw clockwise to

reduce simmer flame size. Turn the screw counter-

clockwise to make the simmer flame larger. Adjust the

valve screw as little as required to reach satisfactory

simmer results. Due to normal fluctuations in gas

pressure, over-adjustment of valve screw may affect

flame stability.

Checking the broil burner(s) performance

NOTE: The oven door(s) must be installed and closed.

To check the gas broil ignition and flame

1. Turn on the main oven mode knob and the oven

temperature knob to BROIL.

• The hot-surface igniter will attempt to light the

broiler after approximately 45 to 90 seconds, as

the safety valve coil heats to open. Once the air

has been purged from the gas supply line, the

broiler should light within four (4) seconds.

• Observe the broil flame performance through the

oven door window. The ceramic tiles of the burner

should glow red hot (infrared) after several

minutes of operation. If after several minutes with

the burner lit, the broiler only has a small amount

of red glow (and burns mostly with blue flame

floating on the burner surface), check that the

broiler orifice is aligned to the center of the

burner tube inlet.

2. If the broil burner burns satisfactorily, reassemble the

backguard onto the appliance (see page 9).

Checking the bake burner(s) performance

NOTE: The oven door(s) must be installed and closed

To check the gas bake ignition and flame

1. Install the front panel (see page 12).

2. Turn the main oven mode knob to BAKE and the oven

temperature knob to any setting.

• The hot-surface igniter will attempt to light the

burner tube after approximately 45 to 90 seconds,

as the safety valve coil heats to open. Once the air

has been purged from the gas supply line, the

burner should light within four (4) seconds.

• Observe the bake burner flame through the slots

in the bottom front panel. Look for considerable

“yellow tipping,” noting that some small amount

of yellow tipping is normal in the flame

characteristics of burners running with propane

(LP) gas, flame lifting, or lazy flames.

3. If the bake burner burners perform satisfactorily,

reinstall the kick panel (see page 12).
