Power Failure Operation
If electrical power is interrupted in your area, you can still cook meals on your Heartland gas range .By following these simple directions you will be able to use the burners and oven without the benefit of electricity.
Caution: make sure your hands and clothing are clear of the burner you are lighting!
Top Burner Control
Manually Lighting the Top Burners
1) Remove cast grate, for unobstructed access to the burner head.
2) Hold a flame source to the desired burner head.
We recommend a barbecue lighter to use as a flame source.
3) Push in and turn the corresponding control knob to the medium setting.
4)Carefully replace cast grate, keep fingers clear of the flame.
5)After the burner lights, adjust flame size as required.
When lighting top burners manually, set control to the medium setting to prevent potential injury from the flame when replacing the grate.
Please note that the "auto reignition" feature will not function without electricity, therefore pay close attention to any burners in use while electrical power is interrupted!
Manually Lighting the Oven Burner
The oven can be operated safely by lighting the oven burner in the following manner:
1.Remove the oven bottom.
2.Hold a flame source at the front of the burner directly beside the igniter. We recommend a barbecue lighter as flame source.
3.Push in and hold down the knob, continue to hold down the oven knob and select the desired oven temperature.
4.You must hold oven knob down for at least 10 seconds after ignition, to activate the oven safety thermocouple. (releasing the knob too early will extinguish the flame).
5.If the oven flame does not light in 10 seconds, STOP. Release oven knob, this will prevent any further gas from going into the oven. Wait at least 1 minute before trying to light oven again. If you are still not successful see "trouble shooting guide".
6.Place oven bottom back onto position, Caution keep fingers and clothing away from the flame!
When lighting oven burner manually, light the burner at the igniter. Keep hands and clothing away from open flame!
Oven Burner and
Igniter
Please note that the flame sensing auto shutoff feature is still functional without the benefit of electricity so if for any reason the flame goes out, the gas supply to the oven is shut off automatically!
