Burners
Operation of electric igniters should be checked after range
and supply line connectors have been carefully checked for
leaks and range has been connected to electric power.
The oven burner is equipped with an electric control system
as well as an electric oven burner igniter. If your model is
equipped with a waist-high broil burner, it will also have an
electric burner igniter. These control systems require no
adjustment. When the oven is set to operate, current will flow
to the igniter. It will "glow" similar to a light bulb. When the
igniter has reached a temperature sufficient to ignite gas, the
electrically controlled oven valve will open and flame will
appear at the oven burner. There is a time lapse from 30 to 60

The approximate
flame length of the oven burner is 1 inch

To determine if the oven burner flame is proper, remove the
oven bottom and burner baffle and set the oven to bake at
300°F.
To remove the oven bottom, remove oven hold down screws
at rear of oven bottom. Pull up at rear, disengage front of oven
bottom from oven front frame, and pull the oven bottom out
of the oven. Remove burner baffle so that the burner flame
can be observed.
If the flame is yellow in color, increase air shutter opening
size. (See "2" in illustration below.) If the flame is a distinct
blue, reduce the air shutter opening size.
To adjust loosen lock screw (see "3" illustration
below),
reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw. Replace oven
