perform a brief gas leakage check of the orifice and
associated fittings, per the "Check for Gas Leaks" section
of these instructions.

Changing the broil burner orifice
NOTE: This procedure applies to both the main oven broil
burner and, when applicable, to the auxiliary oven broil
burner.
1. Remove broil orifice using a 7/16'' box end wrench,
while restraining the elbow fitting from rotation using
a small adjustable wrench.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT bend the broil burner orifice
bracket. Ensure that the broiler orifice is aligned to the
center of the burner tube inlet.
2. Label each of the removed orifices, noting from which
burner they were removed, in the event the appliance
is converted back to natural gas in the future.
For your convenience, note the orifice sizes and
locations in the following table.

possible gas leak in this area, ensure the orifice is
completely seated and tight to the burner orifice
holding bracket and the 90° orifice elbow.
