Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of
standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the
"LITE" position, the system creates a spark to light the burner.
This sparking continues, as long as the control knob is turned to
"LITE."
When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, sparking
occurs and ignites the gas.
Check Operation of Cooktop Burners
,_ .....
Determine if you have AquaLift ®Technology or Steam Clean by
referring to the "Range Care" section of the User Instructions.
For Ranges with AquaLift ®Technology or Steam Clean:
1. Place level on the oven bottom as indicated in one of the two
figures below depending on the size of the level. Check with
the level side to side and front to back.
2. If range is not level, pull range forward until rear leveling leg is
removed from the anti-tip bracket.
3. Follow the directions in Style 1 or Style 2, depending on the
style of drawer supplied with the range.
For Ranges without AquaLift _ Technology or Steam Clean:
1. Place a standard flat rack in oven.
2. Place level on the rack and check levelness of the range, first
side to side; then front to back.
3. If range is not level, pull range forward until rear leveling leg is
removed from the anti-tip bracket.
4. Follow the directions in Style 1 or Style 2, depending on the
style of drawer supplied with the range.
Standard Surface
Burners
Push in and turn each control knob to the "LITE" position.
The flame should light within 4 seconds. The first time a burner is
lit, it may take longer than 4 seconds to light because of air in the
gas line.
If burners do not light properly:
Turn cooktop control knob to the "OFF" position.
Check that the range is plugged in. Check that the circuit
breaker has not tripped or the household fuse has not blown.
Check that the gas shutoff valves are set to the "open" position.
Check that burner caps are properly positioned on burner
bases.
Repeat start-up. If a burner does not light at this point, turn the
control knobs to the "OFF" position and contact your dealer or
authorized service company for assistance.
Adjust Flame Height
Adjust the height of top burner flames. The cooktop "low" burner
flame should be a steady blue flame approximately
1¼,(0.64 cm)
high.
B
A. Low flame
B. High flame
To adjust standard
burner:

center of the valve stem. The valve stem is located directly
underneath the control knob.
