8 REPLACING THE OVEN DOOR
NOTE: The oven door is heavy. You may need help lifting the door high enough to
slide it into the hinge slots. Do not lift the door by the handle.
A. Lift the oven door by placing one hand on each side. The door is heavy, so you may
need help. Do not lift the door by the handle.
B. With the door at the same angle as the removal position (approximately 1"–2"
[2.5 cm–5.1 cm] from the closed position), seat the notch of the hinge arm into the
bottom edge of the hinge slot. The notch of the hinge arm must be fully seated
into the bottom of the slot.
C. Fully open the door. If the door will not fully open, the indentation is not seated
correctly in the bottom edge of the slot.
D. Push the hinge locks up against the front frame of the oven cavity, to the locked position.
E. Close the oven door.

CHECK THE IGNITERS
C
Operation of the electric igniters should be checked after the cooktop and supply line have
been carefully checked for leaks and the cooktop has been connected to the electrical power.
A. Turn on gas.
B. Push and turn a burner valve to the LITE position.
• The burner valve should light when gas is available to the burner.
• Once the burner lights, it should be turned out of the LITE position.
C. Try each valve separately until all burners have been checked.
D BURNER IGNITION
Cooktop Spark Ignition—When you turn the cooktop knob to LITE, the spark igniter makes
a series of electric sparks (ticking sounds) which light the 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.
WARNING:
Lighting gas burners with a match is dangerous.
You should match light the cooktop burners only in an emergency.
A. Light a match and hold the flame near the burner you want to light. Wooden matches
work best.
B. 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 5 minutes
before trying again.
BURNER FLAMES
E
Turn each burner on. Turn each burner knob to the high position. Flames should be blue in color with
little or no trace of yellow. The burner flames should not flutter or blow away from the burner. The inner
cone of the flame should be between 1/2" and 3/4" (12.7 mm and 19.1 mm) long. If the burner flames
are yellow in color or not the proper length, call GE Service.
