or electric ignitors. Standing pilots must be lit
initially with a match following the directions on
page 11. The pilot light will remain lit when the
burners are turned off. To turn

the burner will light. Electric ignitors automatically
light the burners each time the control knob is
turned to LITE.

then
turned to the LITE position. On electric ignitor
model, the clicking sound is the ignitor sparking.
After the burner lights, turn the control knob to
the desired setting. The control knob can be set
anywhere between HI and LO.
