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 “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 glow bar heats up bright orange and ignites the gas. No sparking occurs and the glow bar remains on while the burners operate.

light within 4 seconds. Do Not leave the knob in the “LITE”position after burner lights.

15 n After burner lights, turn control knob to ‘HI” position. Check each cooktop burner for proper flame. At the “HI”setting, the small inner cone should have a very distinct blue flame l/2” long. The outer cone is not as distinct as the inner cone. No air adjustment can be made.
