Power Outage—Electric Ignition Models
Installation Instructions Care and Cleaning Operating
A burner in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally. Your oven may be used during an electrical power outage by carefully following the steps below.
To light the oven pilot during an electrical power outage:
Be sure the OVEN TEMP knob is in the OFF position.
Open both the oven and broiler doors and wait 5 minutes to allow any pilot gas to dissipate.
Unplug the range from the wall outlet, turn off the circuit breaker, or remove the fuse to avoid accidental ignition of the oven if electrical power is restored while you are lighting the pilot.
Remove the broiler pan.
Locate the oven pilot assembly by looking into the broiler opening. The pilot is at the back of the broiler compartment, on the left side of the burner.
NOTE: The oven must be at room temperature before you should attempt to light the oven pilot manually.
Turn the OVEN TEMP knob to the desired temperature setting.
Light the pilot with a match and withdraw your arm immediately because the oven burner may light in as little as 20 seconds.
Replace the broiler pan and close the oven and broiler doors.
NOTE: It is necessary to light the pilot manually each time the oven is used during a power outage.
