7 CHECK IGNITION OF OVEN BURNER

Your oven is designed to operate quietly and automatically. To operate the oven, turn the OVEN CONTROL knob to a setting above 200°F. 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 OVEN CONTROL knob.

Electric ignition models require electrical power to operate. The oven cannot be lit during a power outage. 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.

8 ADJUSTING THE AIR ADJUSTMENT SHUTTER

To determine if the bottom burner flames are burning properly, first remove the oven bottom and burner baffle.

Oven bottom

To remove the oven bottom:

1.Remove screws holding down rear of oven bottom.

2.Grasp oven bottom at finger slots on each side.

3.Lift rear of oven bottom enough to clear the

lip of range frame, then pull it out of the oven.

4.Remove the burner baffle so that the burner flame can be observed.

With the oven bottom removed, properly adjusted flames should have approximately 1″ blue cones and, if range is supplied with natural gas, should burn with no yellow tipping. (With most LP gas, small yellow tips at the end of outer cones are normal.) Flames should not lift off burner ports. If lifting is observed, gradually reduce air shutter opening until flames are stabilized.

If the flame is yellow in color, increase air shutter opening size. If the flame is a distinct blue, reduce the air shutter opening size.

To adjust loosen lock screw, reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw. Replace oven bottom.
