IMPORTANT: READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug for your

protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

For personal safety, this oven must be properly grounded. For maximum safety, the power cord must be plugged into a 120V—60 Hz. outlet that is correctly polarized and properly grounded.

If a two-prong wall receptacle is the only available outlet, it is the personal responsibility of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three- prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD ROUND GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD PLUG. SEE THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS PACKAGED WITH THIS APPLIANCE FOR COMPLETE INSTALLATION AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS. DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE USING A TWO- PRONG ADAPTER OR AN EXTENSION CORD.

Cooktop and

Oven Ignition

During a power failure, the oven burners cannot be lit and you should not try to do so. The oven burner valves will not open up and will prevent the gas from flowing through the burner valves to the burners.

To Manually Light Cooktop Burners with Spark Ignition

When you turn the control knob to LITE, all ignitors make an electric spark (a ticking sound) which lights the selected burner.

During a power failure, the burners will not light automatically. In an emergency, a cooktop burner may be lit with a match by following the steps below:

1.Light a match and hold the flame near the burner you want to light. Wooden matches work best.

2.Push in and turn the control knob slowly. Be sure you are turning the correct knob for the burner you are lighting.

Note: If the burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn the knob off and wait one minute before trying again.

Oven Ignition

When you turn the oven on, the glow bar igniter begins to heat. When the lighter is hot enough, in about 1 minute, the gas flows into the burner and is ignited.

The igniter glows bright orange when hot. It cycles on and off with the thermostat and will glow whenever the burner is on.
