Once the pilot gas valve is open, turning the thermostat
knob to a temperature setting will allow gas to be
supplied to the oven burner. Oven temperature can then
be regulated by the thermostat. If the thermocouple
does not sense enough heat from the pilot
fl
ame (such
as when the pilot is out), then the thermostat shuts off
the gas supply to both the pilot and oven burners.
