Before Using Your Oven
Be sure you understand how to set the controls properly. Practice removing
and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information and
tips on the following pages. Keep this guide handy where you can refer to
it, especially during the first weeks of using your new range.
Lighting Instructions for Electric Ignition Models
The oven burner and broil burner are lighted by
electric ignition.
To light the burner, turn the OVEN CONTROL knob
to the desired temperature. The burner should light
within 30-90 seconds. After the oven reaches the
selected temperature, the oven burner cycles—off
completely, then on with a full flame—to maintain the
selected temperature.
Lighting Instructions for Standing Pilot Models
These ranges have
standing oven pilots that
must be lit initially.
To light the oven pilot:
1. Be sure the OVEN
CONTROL knob is
in the OFF position.
2. Open the broiler door
and remove the
broiler pan and rack.
This will make it
easier for you to
reach inside the
broiler compartment.
Oven Control
Your oven is controlled by an OVEN CONTROL
knob. It will normally take 30-90 seconds before
the flame comes on. After the oven reaches the
selected temperature, the oven burner cycles—off
completely, then on with a full flame—to maintain the
selected temperature.

USING YOUR OVEN
Power Outage
CAUTION: DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEMPT TO
OPERATE THE ELECTRIC IGNITION OVEN
DURING AN ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE.
The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power
failure. Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs,
the oven burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until
power is restored.
3. Find the oven pilot port at the back of the broiler
compartment. The long tube, running from front to
back, is the oven burner. The pilot port is at the
back, about one inch below the burner.
4. Using a long match or match holder, reach in and
light the oven pilot.
• To light the oven burner, turn the OVEN
CONTROL knob to the desired temperature.
The burner should light within 60 seconds.
• Proper flame configuration: While using the oven
burner, visually check the burner flame in the broiler
compartment. If flame does not burn as described in
the Installation section of this guide, adjust the flame
following the directions on those pages.
• Power failure: An electrical power failure will
not affect the standing oven pilot.
Oven Light
(on some models)
Use the switch on the control panel to turn the oven
light on and off.
