Oven Ignition
IMPORTANT: READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug for your
protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
For personal safety, this oven must be properly grounded. For maximum safety, the
power cord must be plugged into a 120V—60 Hz. outlet that is correctly polarized
and properly grounded.
If a two-prong wall receptacle is the only available outlet, it is the personal
responsibility of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-
prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD ROUND
GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD PLUG. SEE THE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS PACKAGED WITH THIS OVEN FOR COMPLETE INSTALLATION
AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS. DO NOT OPERATE THE OVEN USING A TWO-
PRONG ADAPTER OR AN EXTENSION CORD.
When you turn the oven on, the glow bar igniter begins to heat. When the lighter
is hot enough, in about 45 seconds, the gas flows into the burner and is ignited.
The igniter glows bright orange when hot. It cycles on and off with the thermostat
and will glow whenever the burner is on.
Do not attempt to light the oven burners during a power
failure. The oven burner valves will not open up and will prevent the gas from
flowing through the burner valves to the burners. In the event of a power failure,
turn the Temperature Control knob to OFF. When power resumes, turn the
Temperature Control knob back to desired temperature.
