Check Operation of Oven/Broil Burner
Electronic oven control (on some models):
1.
Open broiler door.
2.
Press in and turn the oven control knob to the desired
temperature.
■
The oven burner should light in 20-40 seconds; this delay
is normal. The oven valve requires a certain time before it
will open and allow gas to flow. The oven burner will burn
until oven temperature has reached 350°F (175°C). After
20-40 seconds, the oven burner will begin to cycle on
and off to maintain the 350°F (175°C) temperature.
To avoid damaging the hot surface igniter, do not insert
any object into the openings of the shield that surround
the igniter or clean that area.
3.
Check the oven burner for proper flame. The flame should be
½" (1.3 cm) long with inner cone of bluish-green. The outer
mantle should be dark blue and should be clean and soft in
character. No yellow tips (not enough air), blowing, or lifting
(too much air) of flame should occur.
If the flame needs adjusting:
1.
Turn the oven off. Wait for the oven burner to cool down.
2.
Open oven door and remove oven racks and oven tray, and
set aside.
A. Oven tray (lift up at area shown to remove)
3.
Locate the air shutter near the rear wall of oven and loosen
the shutter screw.
A. Shutter screw
B. Air shutter
4.
Adjust the air shutter.
5.
Turn the oven back on and check for proper flame. If the
flame is still not properly adjusted, turn the oven off, wait for
the oven burner to cool down, and repeat Step 4 until flame
is properly adjusted.
6.
When the flame has been properly adjusted, turn the oven off
and wait for the burner to cool down.
7.
Tighten the shutter screw.
8.
Reinstall flame spreader and oven tray. Reinstall the oven
racks and close oven door.
9.
Close the broiler door.
