Electronic ignition system
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic ignitors in place
of standing pilots. When a cooktop control knob is turned
to the "LIGHT" position, the system creates a spark to
light the burner. This sparking continues until the control
knob is turned to the desired setting.
When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, a
hot surface ignitor heats to a bright orange and ignites the
gas. No sparking occurs and the glow bar remains on
while the burner operates.
Check operation of cooktop
15.
Push in and turn each surface unit control
knob to "LIGHT" position. The flame should light within
4 seconds. Turn control knob to "HIGH" position after
burner lights.
Check each cooktop burner for proper flame.
The small inner cone should have a very
distinct blue flame 1/4" (6 mm) to 1/2" (13 mm)
long. The outer cone is not as distinct as the
inner cone. If the flame is noisy or blowing, it
is getting too much air. If the flame is soft and
lazy, it is not getting enough air. Turn surface
burner control knobs to "OFF" position. Adjust air shutter
if needed.
If surface burners need adjusting:
1. Lift up cooktop maintop until it is held in place by
support rods.
2. Adjust the air shutter for each burner by hand as
needed. Close the air shutter to decrease the
amount of air to the flame. Open the air shutter to
increase the amount of air to the flame. Adjust the
air shutter to the widest opening that will not
cause the flame to lift or blow off of the burner.
3. Repeat the first part of Step 15 after adjusting the
air shutters.

this delay is normal. The oven valve requires a certain
time before it will open and allow gas to flow.

any object into the openings of the protective shield that
surrounds the ignitor or clean that area.
