There are separate ignitiondevices for each burner.
These ignitors are turned "on" when any knob is
turned to the LITE setting. The ignitors will "spark" as
long as any of the top burner knobs are at the LITE
setting. In case of an electrical power failure, the top
burners can still be used. To light a burner, hold a
lighted kitchen match adjacent to the top burner to be
used and turn valve knob for the burner to LITE. USE
EXTREME CAUTION. The electric ignitor will not
come"on". It is necessary when using the top burners
during this type of emergency to light each burner to
be used with a kitchen match as described above

OVEN ADJUSTMENTS
1. ELECTRIC IGNITION - BAKE BURNER WITH
ELECTRIC GLOW BAR
a. The bake burner is equipped with an electric con-
trol system as well as an electric oven burner ig-
nitor. This control system requires NO adjust-
ment. To operate, turn thermostat knob to any
temperature setting or to broil. Current will flow to
the ignitor. It will "glow" similar to a light bulb. (This
glow may be reflected into the oven through the
openings in the oven bottom). When the ignitor
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 45 seconds after the thermo-
stat is turned ON before flame appears at the
oven burner. When the oven has reached the dial
setting, the glowing ignitor will go OFF. The burn-
--6-
er flame will go "out" in 20 to 30 seconds after the
ignitor goes "OFF". To maintain any given oven
temperature this cycle will continue as long as the
dial (or display) is at the given temperature.
b.
In case servicing should become necessary, a
manual gas valve is supplied on the pressure
regulator to shut offthe gas to the oven and broiler
burner only. (See figures 3 and 4).
c. The oven CANNOT be used during periods of
power outage, tn case of power failure, turn the
thermostat to the OFF position.
2. AIR SHU'i'rER - OVEN BURNER

burner is 1/2 inch (distinct inner, blue flame). See
