Standing Pilot Models

These ranges have standing pilots that must be lit initially.

To light the oven pilot:

1.Be sure the OVEN CONTROL knob is in the OFF position.

2.Open the broiler door and remove the broiler pan and rack. This will make it easier for you to reach inside the broiler compartment.

3.Find the oven pilot port at the back of the broiler compartment. The long tube, running from front to back, is the oven burner. The pilot port is at the back about one inch below the burner.

4.Using a long match or match

holder, reach in and light the oven pilot.

Oven Vents

The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear of the cooktop. See Features section. Do not block these openings when cooking in the oven—it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burners be unintempted.

●The vent openings and nearby surfaces may become hot. Do not touch them.

●Do not leave plastic

they may melt if left too close to the vent.

●Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become hot if left too close to the vent.

●Metal items will become very hot if they are left on the cooktop and could cause burns.

●Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.
