CHECK IGNITION OF SURFACE
BURNERS
6
Operation of all cooktop and oven burners should be
checked after the range and gas supply lines have been
carefully checked for leaks.
Electric Ignition Models
Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push
in and turn to
LITE
position. You will hear a
clicking
sound
indicating proper operation of the spark module. Once the
air has been purged from the supply lines, burners should
light within 4 seconds. After burner lights, rotate knob out
of the
LITE
position. Try each burner in succession until
all burners have been checked.
Quality of Flames
The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be
determined visually.
If burner flames look like (A), call for service. Normal
burner flames should look like (B) or (C), depending on
the type of gas you use.
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones
is normal.

The oven is designed to operate quietly and automatically.
To operate the oven, press the
Bake
pad and then press the
number pads until
350°
appears in the display. Touch the
Start
pad. After 30–90 seconds, the oven burner will ignite and burn
until the set temperature is reached. The oven burner will
continue to cycle on and off as necessary to maintain the oven
at the temperature indicated by the display.
To check ignition of the broil burner, touch the
Broil Hi/Lo
pad
and then the
Start
pad. After 30–90 seconds, the broil burner
will ignite.
Electric ignition models
require electrical power to operate.
In case of a power outage, the oven burners on these models
cannot be lit manually with a match. Gas will not flow unless
the glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power outage occurs, the burner
will shut off and cannot be relit until power is restored.
