COS-305DFSC FAQ

Q: Why does it smell like paint or chemicals when I use my oven for the first time? A: This is the result of residue from the manufacturing process burning off. Open all of the windows and doors in the room for proper ventilation and allow the oven to run with nothing inside for at least 45 minutes before the first use. Q: Why is my dual burner (front left) only partially lit? A: The dual burner on your Cosmo range can be used for both simmering and high-heat searing. Ensure the burner’s knob has been turned to medium heat or above for the burner to light fully. Q: All of my burners are clicking or sparking when I turn any of them on. A: The burners on this unit will spark when you attempt to ignite any of them. This is normal operation and is an intentional side effect of the cooktop’s design. Q: Why is hot air blowing out from the top of my oven door? A: Your oven is equipped with a cooling fan to better regulate the internal temperature for more precise cooking. There are two vent locations: on top of the oven door, and behind the cooktop. This is intended by design and is normal operation. Q: Why is my unit producing black soot when in use? A: The most common cause of black soot being produced when using either the oven or the cooktop is an improper propane mixture or conversion. Check the propane gas source first, then review the LP conversion instructions. ESWC-Style Oven FAQ

Calibrate COS-305DFSC Cooktop Burners

Read all instructions carefully before beginning. Light two other burners and turn the control knob to medium. This will ensure the burner’s flame does not extinguish when other burners are turned on. Light the burner needing calibration and turn the control knob to the lowest setting. Remove the control knob. Insert a small, flat-head screwdriver into the adjustment screw or control knob valve stem, and slowly turn the screw until the flame appearance is correct. Open the valve more (counter-clockwise) if the flames are too small or fluttered, or the flame extinguishes entirely. Close the valve more (clockwise) if the flames are too large. Replace the control knob. Test the flame by turning the control from “LO” to “HI,” checking the flame at each setting. Repeat the above steps for each burner. 

Adjust COS-305DFSC Regulator for LP Gas

Figure 1-A Figure 1-B Figure 1-C Read all instructions carefully before beginning. NOTE: Your regulator may not match the images exactly, but the procedure will remain the same. Disconnect all electrical power at the main circuit breaker or fuse box. Shut off the gas supply to the unit by closing the manual shut-off valve. Unscrew the cap on the regulator using a wrench as shown in Figure 1-A. Unscrew and remove the retainer pin that is currently positioned for natural gas as shown in Figure 1-B. The position shown in Figure 1-B is the natural setting. If the retainer pin has not yet been flipped, remove the retainer pin and re-insert into the cap as shown in Figure 1-C. Replace the regulator cap and tighten using a wrench. Your regulator is now set up for LP gas.
