Check Operation

Electronic Ignition System

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

When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, a hot sur- face ignitor heats to a bright orange and ignites the gas. No sparking occurs. The glow bar remains on while the burner oper- ates.

Check Operation of Cooktop Burners

1. If control panel and knobs were	OFF￿
removed earlier, reinstall knobs.

4.	Check each cooktop burner for
	proper flame. The small inner

cone should have a very distinct blue flame ¹⁄₄" (6.4 mm) to ¹⁄₂" (13 mm) long. The outer cone is not as distinct as the inner cone.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

7.Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.

5.Turn the control knob quickly to the “LO” position after the burner lights. If the

flame goes out, turn the control knob to the “OFF” position.

6.Check each cooktop burner for proper low flame. The low flame should be a minimum, steady blue flame. The flame size should be ¹⁄₄" to ³⁄₈" (6.4 mm to 9.5 mm) high.

If the low flame needs adjusting:

1.Turn control knob to the “LO” setting and remove control knob.

2.Insert a small flat-blade screwdriver into the valve stem. Turn the valve adjusting screw to obtain the smallest flame that will not go out when the control of a cold burner is quickly turned from “HI” to “LO”. Turn right to decrease flame height. Turn left to increase flame height. Repeat for other cooktop burners as needed.
