Make Sure Range Is Level; Before You Call For Service - Frigidaire GAS RANGE Installation Instructions Manual

36" GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
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 seconds
after thermostat is turned ON before the flame appears
at the oven burner. When the oven reaches the display
setting, the glowing igniter will go off. The burner flame
will go "out" in 20 to 30 seconds after igniter goes "OFF".
To maintain any given oven temperature, this cycle will
continue as long as the display is set to operate.
After removing all packing materials and literature from
the oven:
a) Set the oven to BAKE at 300°F. See Use & Care Guide
for operating instructions.
b) Within 60 seconds the oven burner should ignite.
Check for proper flame (see 8.5.2), and allow the
burner to cycle once (see cycle explanation above).
Reset controls to off.
c) If your model is equipped with a waist-high broiler
burner, set oven to broil. See Use & Care Guide for
operating instructions.
d) Within 60 seconds the broil burner should ignite. Check
for proper flame (see 8.5.3). Reset controls to off.

Figure 8
The approximate oven burner flame length is 1 inch
(distinct inner cone of blue flame).
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 burner flame can be observed.
If the flame is yellow, increase air shutter opening size
(see "2" in Figure 9). If the entire flame is blue, reduce
the air shutter opening size.
To adjust flame loosen lock screw (see "3" in Figure 9),
reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw. Replace
oven bottom.

The approximate flame length of the burner is 1 inch
(distinct inner cone of blue flame). To determine if the
broil burner flame is proper, set the oven to broil. If
flame is yellow, increase air shutter opening size (see "2"
in Figure 9 ). If the entire flame is blue, reduce the air
shutter opening size. To adjust, loosen lock screw (see
"3" in Figure 9), reposition air shutter, and tighten lock
screw.

9. Make Sure Range Is Level

Check if the range is level by placing a level horizontally
on an oven rack. Check diagonally from front to back,
then level the range by either adjusting the leveling legs
or by placing shims under the corners of the range as
needed.
When All Hookups are Complete
Make sure all controls are left in the OFF position.
Make sure the flow of combustion and ventilation air to
the range is unobstructed.
Model and Serial Number Location
The serial plate is located on the oven front frame
behind the drawer.
When ordering parts for or making inquiries about
your range, always be sure to include the model and
serial numbers and a lot number or letter from the
serial plate on your range.
Your serial plate also tells you the rating of the
burners, the type of fuel and the pressure the range
was adjusted for when it left the factory.
