18.Push in and turn each surface unit control knob to “LITE” position. The flame should light within 4 seconds. Turn control knob to desired setting after burner lights.

Check each cooktop burner for proper flame. The small inner cone should have a very distinct blue flame 1/4" to 1/2" long.

The outer cone is not as distinct as the inner cone. If the flame is noisy or blowing, it is getting too much air. If the flame is soft and lazy, it is not getting enough air. Turn each surface burner control knob to “OFF” position. Adjust air shutter if needed.

If pilot light does not stay lit, adjust pilot adjustment screw (see Step 15, Page 5).

If surface burners need adjusting:

Push in and turn the oven control knob to “350˚F.” The oven pilot should now be larger with the flame burning against a small metal bulb. The oven burner should light in 20-40 seconds; this delay is normal. The oven valve requires a certain time before it will open and allow gas to flow.

The oven burner will burn until oven temperature has reached 350°F. At that temperature, the oven pilot should get smaller. After 20-40 seconds, the oven burner will begin to cycle on and off to maintain the 350°F temperature.

20.Check the oven burner

for proper flame. The flame should be 1/2" long, with inner cone of bluish- green, and outer mantle of dark blue, and should be clean and soft in

character. No yellow tips, blowing or lifting of flame should occur.
