F Check Ignition of Surface Burners

Operation of all cooktop and oven burners should be checked after pilots have been lighted (on some models) and the range and gas supply lines have been carefully checked for leaks.

Standing Pilot Models

Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push in and turn to HI position. The burner should light within a few seconds. Try each burner in succession until all burners have been checked.

Electric Ignition Models

Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push in and turn to LITE position. You will hear a clicking 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.

G Replace Oven Parts

the broiler drawer, oven bottom, shelves and oven door.
