OPERATION

DANGER

EXPLOSION AND ASPHYXIATION HAZARD

In the event a gas odor is detected, shut down equipment at the main gas shut-off valve and immediately call the emergency phone number of your gas supplier.

Improper ventilation can result in headaches, drowsiness, nausea, and could result in death. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to and from cooking appliances.

CAUTION

To eliminate gas build up which could result in an explosion, in the event of main burner ignition failure wait five minutes before attempting to relight the pilot or burner.

The controls for the burners and oven(s) are located on the valve panel on the front of the range. If the pilots need to be lit, follow the steps listed in each section below.

LIGHTING AFTER GAS HAS BEEN SHUT OFF

When turning the main gas supply on after the gas supply has been shut off, do the following:

1.Make sure the gas supply valve, located on the front valve panel, is in the OFF position.

2.Make sure all of the control valves are in the OFF position.

3.Turn on the incoming gas supply.

4.Turn the gas supply valve, located on the front valve panel, to the ON position.

5.Light the pilots as described below.

6.Light the oven first and then wait six minutes before lighting top burners to purge all air from the range.

To operate a top burner, turn the corresponding control knob on the front panel to the desired flame level. Each top burner has its own pilot. If a top-burner pilot needs to be lighted, do the following:

1.Turn all the top-burner control knobs to the OFF position.

2.On S500 models, turn one of the top-burner control knobs to the pilot position, push the knob inward, and hold it in place. Depress and hold down the spark switch (the black button between the control valves). A spark from the ignitor to the pilot can be seen and heard. When the pilot lights, release the spark switch, but continue holding the knob in for 30 to 45 seconds. When the knob is released, the pilot should remain lit.

On X500 models, depress and hold down the spark switch (the black button between the control valves). A spark from the ignitor to the pilot can be seen and heard. When the pilot lights, release the spark switch.

3.Repeat step 2 for the all other top-burner pilots that need to be lighted.

OPERATION OF OVEN

To operate an oven, turn the oven-thermostat knob on the front panel to the desired temperature. On convection ovens, the blower is controlled by an ON-OFF switch.

Each oven has its own pilot. If an oven pilot needs to be lighted, do the following:

1.Turn the oven thermostat to the OFF position.

2.For convection ovens, turn the fan switch to the OFF position.

3.Open the oven door and remove the oven bottom and fire plate to expose pilot and burner.

4.Open the kick panel below the oven door and depress red button on oven safety valve.

5.Light constant pilot (the pilot without a capillary tube holder).

6.Close the kick panel and replace the fire plate and oven bottom.
