Oven Operation - GE 164D3333P185-1 Owner's Manual

Read these instructions completely and carefully.
If Range Has Electric Ignition
There are separate ignition devices for the left
and right hand surface burners. Both of these
ignitors are 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.
Oven Pilot Adjustment
On pilot models remove thermostat knob.
Check position of pilot gas selector to make sure
selector is turned to the correct position for the
type of gas that is to be used. To change to LP,
insert small blade screwdriver in slot and turn
fully clockwise so that indicator points to LP. To
change to NAT, turn fully counterclockwise so that
indicator points to NAT.
If desired, the gas to the oven pilot can be
turned off by turning the selector so the pointer
is at the OFF position, midway between the LP
and NAT settings. (Thermostat on your range
may not appear exactly as shown in diagram.)
On electric ignition models the gas to the oven
burner can be turned off. A manual shut-off
valve is provided on manifold pipe.

Oven Operation

With the oven thermostat dial in the OFF
position, light standing pilot on oven burner
pilot assembly. On electric ignition models
do not attempt to manually light the oven
pilot.
Turn the thermostat dial to any temperature
setting. The oven pilot flame will enlarge
and engulf the mercury bulb. After
approximately 30–45 seconds the main
burner will come on.
The oven can be used during periods of
power outage. (See the Using the surface
units section.)
In the event 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 to LITE. USE
EXTREME CAUTION.

(vice versa).
