Power Failure
In the event of a power failure, only the non ExtraLow®
burners (see page 21 for burner layout) can be lit manually.
It is necessary to light each standard STAR® burner
individually.
If the range's cooktop is being used when the power failure
occurs, turn all of the STAR® burner control knobs to the
OFF position. The standard STAR® burners can be lighted
by holding a match at the ports and turning the control knob
to the HI position. Wait until the flame is burning all the way
around the STAR® burner cap before
the desired height.
The four ExtraLow® STAR® burners on the outer sides
cannot be used during a power failure. Be sure to turn them
OFF if a power failure occurs because they will not turn
back on until the control knobs are turned OFF and then
turned back on again. See "WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL
GAS" on page 3.
If you have low gas pressure, contact your gas company.
