To obtain the best cooking results possible, you must operate your range properly. This
section gives you important information for efficient and safe use of your range.
Using the surface burners
Your range is equipped with either standing
pilots or electric ignitors. Standing pilots must
be lit initially with a match following the direc-
tions on page 11. The pilot light will remain lit
when the burners are turned off. To turn a
burner on again, just push in and turn the
control knob counterclockwise to LITE and
the burner will light. Electric ignitors automati-
cally light the burners each time the control
knob is turned to LITE.
Push in and turn
counterclockwise
Push in the control knob and turn counter-
clockwise to the LITE position. On electric
ignitor models, the clicking sound is the ignitor
sparking. Visually check that burner has lit.
After the burner lights, turn the control
