Each valve and air shutter is individually tested and adjusted prior to shipment. Normally adjustment is not required, however, vibration during
transit, gas conversion or variations in the local gas supply may make minor adjustments necessary.
●
●
Check for the proper burner flame characteristics and adjust air shutters if necessary.
Burner flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting of the flame from the burner. If any of these conditions
exist, check that the air shutter or burner ports are not blocked. If this condition persists, adjust the air shutter as required. If the flame is too
yellow, indicating insufficient air, open the shutter to increase air inlet. If the flame is noisy or tends to lift away from the burner, indicating too
much air, close the shutter to reduce air.
IMPORTANT!
For warranty coverage, DCS requires that all burner adjustments be made by a qualified technician at the time of installation.
IMPROPER ADJUSTMENT WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

●
●
To check that the ignition system operates correctly, light each burner
by itself, then all burners in combination.
●
●
Check for a well-defined blue flame without any yellow tipping.
●
●
If any abnormality is evident, check that the components of the
burner assembly are located properly.
●
●
When installing the burner port ring, align the two locating pins in the
bottom side of the port ring with the locating notch and center holes on
the top side of the simmer ring, and make sure these are properly engaged.
Important! Incorrect installation may produce a potentially dangerous flame
and result in poor burner performance.
●
●
No air shutter adjustment is possible on the cooktop burners. Proper
operation is achieved with factory installed settings for the correct gas type.
●
●
If proper operation cannot be obtained, contact Customer Care or your
nearest DCS by F&P Authorized Service Center.
●
●
The cooktop must not be used by the customer until proper operation has
been achieved.
