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

If top-burner pilots go out, the flow of gas to the burners is NOT interrupted (unless the range is equipped with the optional flame-failure safety valves). Consequently, it is the responsibility of the operator to check the ignition of the burners, immediately after burner value has been turned ON. Should ignition fail after 10 seconds, turn off burners, wait 5 minutes, and then check the pilots and try again.

The controls for the burners and oven(s) are located on the control 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 control panel, is in the OFF position.

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

3.Turn on the incoming gas supply.

4.Turn the gas supply valve, located on the front control 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.

OPERATION OF TOP BURNERS

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 lit, do the following:

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

2.On ranges with standard pilots, use a match or lighter to light all the pilots.

On ranges equipped with Flame Failure, 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 knobs). A spark from the igniter to the pilot will 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. Repeat for all the pilots, as needed.

OPERATION OF GAS OVEN

To operate a gas 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 lit, 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.
