It is strongly suggested that your electric range be connected 
by means of a cord utilizing copper conductors. Copper has 
always proven itself to be the most dependable conductor. 
However, many homes may be wired to connect to a range by 
means of aluminum wiring. This is not an ideal situation, and 
we urge you to have a qualified electrician change to a copper 
cord connection. If this is not possible, bare wire connections 
can be made with the terminal adapter kit packed with the 
range. 

Electronic Ignition 

 

Ranges and cooktops have top ignitor electrodes. When 
a top burner knob is turned to the LITE position, 
electrodes will spark at a rate of approximately 1½ 
pulses (sparks) per second. On sealed burner models, the 
sparking will stop once the burner has ignited. On open 
burner models, rotate the knob slightly clockwise to stop 
sparking once lit. 

 

In the event of a power failure you may need to light the 
top burners with a match. Do so by holding a lit match 
near the surface burner and turning the knob counter-
clockwise to the LITE position. 

 

Spark Modules 

 

The heart of an electronic spark system is the module 
that is located either in the burner box, at the bottom of 
the appliance, or behind the service access panel on 
electric oven models. There is sufficient wiring to 
withdraw the module assembly to check the connections, 
make repairs or replacement. If sparking does not occur 
when the top burner control is on, see page 34 for 
troubleshooting tips. 

 

Wiring Diagrams 

 

Wiring diagrams are located in this Use and Care manual 
(pages 23 to 29). One is also located behind the control 
panel near the griddle/grill knob or on the back of the 
access panel beneath the electric oven, depending on the 
model.  

 

NOTE: Burner rates specified on the rating plate of the 
range apply for elevations up to 2,000 feet above sea 
level. For locations where altitudes are higher than 2,000 
feet, the BTU rated input should be reduced four percent 
for each 1,000 feet higher than 2,000 feet above sea 
level. If this adjustment is necessary, contact a qualified 
service technician.
