I have a new gas stove being delivered tomorrow. Is there anything I need to do to break it in aside from turning my hood on high and cranking the oven past 400 degrees for an hour or two?

Most of the internet seems to have tard level advice like "remove the zip ties before turning it on".

You say stove and oven which I assume means range top. Adjust the low to a notch above the lowest gas setting where the burners (all ports) stay lit. Normally these come set too high to avoid liability. But it means low isn't really low without this adjustment.

Normally you take the knob off each burner and there is a small screw to turn inside the knob's "stem" which adjusts flow.

This just solved a two year dilemma of low not really being low. Thank you kindly.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check that first thing.
