Remove the oven rack. Remove

the oven bottom and place it on a
protected surface.

22.

Adjust the height of top burner

flames (some models).

The cooktop LOW burner flame should
be a steady blue flame approximately
1/4" (0.64 cm) high. It can be adjusted
using the adjustment screw in the center
of the valve stem. The valve stem is
located directly underneath the 
control knob.

20.

Check

the operation of
the cooktop
burners. Push in
and turn each
control knob to
the “LITE”
position. The
flame should light
within 4 seconds. The first time a burner
is lighted it may take longer than 4
seconds to light because of air in gas
line. 

19.

Remove cooktop burner caps

and grates from parts package. Align
notches in burner caps with pins in
burner base. Burner caps should be level
when properly positioned. Place burner
grates over burners and caps.

Electronic Ignition System — 

Initial lighting and gas flame
adjustments.

Cooktop and oven burners use electronic
ignitors in place of standing pilots. When
the cooktop control knob is turned to the
“LITE” position, the system creates a
spark to light the burner. This sparking
continues, as long as control knob is
turned to “LITE”.

When the oven control is turned to the
desired setting, a glow bar heats up
bright orange and ignites the gas. No
sparking occurs and the glow bar
remains on while the burners operate.

21.

If burners do not light properly,

turn cooktop control knob to the “OFF”
position. Check that the power supply
cord is plugged in and the circuit breaker
or fuse has not blown. Check that the gas
shutoff valves are set to the “OPEN”
position. Repeat Step 18. If a burner does
not light at this point, contact your dealer
or authorized service company for
assistance.
