4 SEAL THE OPENINGS

Seal any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range when hookups are completed.

5 CHECK IGNITION OF SURFACE BURNERS

Surface Burner Ignition

Operation of all cooktop and oven burners should be checked after the range and gas supply lines have been carefully checked for leaks.

Electric Ignition Models

Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push in and turn to LITE position. You will hear a snapping sound indicating proper operation of the spark module. Once the air has been purged from the supply lines, burners should light within 4 seconds. After burner lights, rotate knob out of the LITE position. Try each burner in succession until all burners have been checked.

Quality of Flames

The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be determined visually.

(A) Yellow flames—

Call for service

(B) Yellow tips on outer cones— Normal for LP gas

(C) Soft blue flames—

Normal for natural gas

If burner flames look like (A), call for service. Normal burner flames should look like (B) or (C), depending on the type of gas you use.

With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is normal.

6 CHECK IGNITION OF OVEN BURNER

The oven is designed to operate quietly and automatically. To operate the oven, press the BAKE pad and then press the INCREASE pad until “350°” appears in the display. After 30-90 seconds, the oven burner will ignite and burn until the set temperature is reached. The oven burner will continue to cycle on and off as necessary to maintain the oven at the temperature indicated by the display.

To check ignition of the broil burner, press the BROIL pad and then the INCREASE or DECREASE pad. After 30-90 seconds, the broil burner will ignite.

Electric ignition models require electrical power to operate. In case of a power outage, the oven burners on these models cannot be lit manually with a match. Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power outage occurs, the burner will shut off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored.
