Cooktop and
Oven Ignition
_ During a power failure, the
oven burners cannot be lit and you should
not try to do so. The oven burner valves will
not open up and will prevent the gas from
flowing through the burner valves to the
burners.
To Manually Light Cooktop Burners with Spark Ignition
When you turn the control knob to LITE, all ignitors make an electric spark (a ticking sound)
which lights the selected burner.
During a power failure, the burners will not light automatically. In an emergency, a cooktop
burner may be lit with a match by following the steps below:
1.
2.
Light a match and hold the flame near the burner you want to light. Wooden matches
work best.
Push in and turn the control knob slowly. Be sure you are turning the correct knob
for the burner you are lighting.
Note: If the burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn the knob off and wait
one minute before trying again.
Oven Ignition
When you turn the oven on, the glow bar igniter begins to heat. When the lighter is hot
enough, in about 1 minute, 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.
Flame Size
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge
of the utensil. A higher flame simply wastes
heat and energy, and increases your risk of
being burned by the flame.
WRONG
Formost cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one to
complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for determining proper flame size
for various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being
cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.
Fordeep fatfrying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob accordingly.
If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food
will brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry
too much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.
*Flame Size Type of Cooking
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling
Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam
Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stew
* These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with lids.
Settings may vary when using other types of pans.
Proper Burner
Adjustments
The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue
and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharply
defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean burner, see instructions
under General Cleaning.
